WARNINGS Read Before Using Your Sega Dreamcast™ Video Game System
CAUTION

Anyone who uses the Sega Dreamcast should read the operating manual for the software and console before operating them.
A responsible adult should read these manuals together with any minors who will use the Sega Dreamcast before the minor uses it .

HEALTH AND EPILEPSY WARNING

Some small number of people are susceptible to epileptic seizures or loss of consciousness when exposed to certain flashing lights or
light patterns that they encounter in everyday life, such as those in certain television images or video games. These seizures or loss of
consciousness may occur even if the person has never had an epileptic seizure.

If you or anyone in your family has ever had symptoms related to epilepsy when exposed to flashing lights, consult your doctor prior
to using the Sega Dreamcast.

In all cases, parents should monitor the use of video games by their children. If any player experiences dizziness, blurred vision, eye or
muscle twitches, loss of consciousness, disorientation, any involuntary movement or convulsion, IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE USE AND
CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE RESUMING PLAY.

To reduce the possibility of such symptoms, the operator must follow these safety precautions at all times when using the Sega
Dreamcast.

• Sit a minimum of 6.5 feet away from the television screen. This should be as far as the length of the controller cable.

• Do not play if you are tired or have not had much sleep.

• Make sure that the room in which you are playing has all the lights on and is well lit .

• Stop playing video games for at least ten to twenty minutes per hour. This will rest your eyes, neck, arms and fingers so that you can
continue comfortably playing the game in the future.
