So Much Win.
Turn your Wii off when you're not using it.
This is done by pressing the circle with a line going through it at the top left corner of your Wii console. Don't just press it for half a second and let go. This will only put it in sleep mode. You need to hold it down until the green light turns red. If you put it into sleep mode, the green light will turn yellow. You can't hold down the circle with a line on your Wiimote to turn the Wii off. This will only put it in sleep mode, no matter how long you hold it down. And don't just do this step for your Wii, do it to save energy for your bills and for the world.
Don't expose the openings in your Wii to dust.
On the front of the Wii, there is a disk chamber to slide in your game. This doesn't need to be cleaned too often because there is an antidust curtain. But you should still slide a tissue over this to get rid of dust every month or so.
Remove your game disk when you're not playing.
This is for the Wii's sake, and for organization. Don't try to stick things into the disk chamber to try to get your game out. Simply press the up arrow with a line under it that's to the left of the chamber. This will eject your disk, and won't cause any harm to your Wii. The same goes for any Game Cube disks you have in the slot. These are easily forgotten because they have a plastic cover over the opening. If you consistently forget to eject these, write yourself a note so you'll remember where you put it. You don't want to lose your game disks.
Report any bugs you encounter with your Wii.
This could range from one of your disks not starting up to the console randomly catching on fire. Although it could be a bug everyone's Wii has, in some cases it could just be yours. Report your bugs to Nintendo
Be sure of how long the warranty is, and what it guarantees
You don't want to accidentally drop your Wii into a volcano just to hear you didn't secure your warranty. The warranty can be found in the owner's manual, but if you're having trouble finding it, email someone for help at Nintendo, or ask a fellow Wii owner in their neighbourhood where they found theirs. It's worth the trouble.
Always use your Wiimote strap.
Use the Wiimote jacket as well. This is extremely important. People have broken their television screens because they "followed-through" with their baseball swing. Nintendo does not cover any of these accidents with their warranty because they provide cautions at the beginning of every game to put on and secure your wrist strap.
Heres a video how to fix and clean your Wii lens.For some people this worked.
