General Electrical Precautions
As with many other electrical devices, failure to take the following precautions may result in serious injury or death from electric shock or fire, or damage to the Xbox video game system.
Avoid damaging the power cable.
•Protect the power cable from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
•Do not jerk, knot, sharply bend or otherwise abuse the power cable.
•Do not expose the power cable to sources of heat.
•Keep children and pets away from the power cable and do not allow them to bite or chew on it.
•When disconnecting the power cable from the Xbox console or a power outlet, pull on the plug—do not pull on the cable.
•Do not place objects filled with liquids, such as beverages or vases, on or near the Xbox console.
•Do not clean the Xbox console with water, liquid cleaners, solvents or aerosols.
Clean the outside of the Xbox console properly.
Clean only with a dry cloth. For more information, see
Cleaning the Xbox Video Game System on page 15.
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
Also, do not leave the Xbox video game system unattended with the power on for extended periods.
Use only attachments/peripherals specified by the
manufacturer.
If the power cable becomes damaged in any way, stop using it immediately and call the Microsoft Xbox Customer Support number on page 17.
Do not overload an extension lead, wall outlet or
other type of receptacle.
The Xbox video game system can consume up to 100 watts. Do not exceed the stated ratings of cables or receptacles.
Use the type of power source indicated on the
Xbox console.
If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult a qualified electrician.

Important health warnings
About Photosensitive Seizures
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games.
These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects.
Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures.
The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by taking the following precautions:
•Sit farther from the television screen
•Use a smaller television screen
•Play in a well-lit room
•Do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued
If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing.
About Musculoskeletal Disorders
Use of game controllers, keyboards, mice or other electronic input devices may be linked to serious injuries or disorders.
When playing video games, as with many activities, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck or other parts of your body. However, if you experience symptoms such as persistent or recurring discomfort, pain, throbbing, aching, tingling, numbness, burning sensation or stiffness, DO NOT IGNORE THESE WARNING SIGNS. PROMPTLY SEE A QUALIFIED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, even if symptoms occur when you are not playing a video game. Symptoms such as these can be associated with painful and sometimes permanently disabling injuries or disorders of the nerves, muscles, tendons, blood vessels and other parts of the body. These musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) include carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, tenosynovitis, vibration syndromes and other conditions.
While researchers are not yet able to answer many questions about MSDs, there is general agreement that many factors may be linked to their occurrence, including medical and physical conditions, stress and how one copes with it, overall health, and how a person positions and uses their body during work and other activities (including playing a video game). Some studies suggest that the amount of time a person performs an activity may also be a factor.
Some guidelines that may help you work and play more comfortably and possibly reduce your risk of experiencing an MSD may be found in the Healthy Gaming Guide (available at http://www.xbox.com). These guidelines address topics such as:
•Positioning yourself to use comfortable, not awkward, postures.
•Keeping your hands, fingers and other body parts relaxed.
•Taking breaks.
•Developing a healthy lifestyle.
If you have questions about how your own lifestyle, activities, or medical or physical condition may be related to MSDs, see a qualified health professional.
