EPILEPSY WARNING

A very small portion of the population has a condition which may cause them to experience epileptic seizures or have momentary loss of consciousness when viewing certain kinds of flashing lights or patterns that are commonly present in our daily environment. These persons may experience seizures while watching some kinds of television pictures or playing certain video games. People who have not had any previous seizures may nonetheless have an undetected epileptic condition.

If you or anyone in your family has experienced symptoms linked to an epileptic condition (e.g. seizure or loss of awareness), immediately consult your physician before using any video games.

We recommend that parents observe their children while they play video games. If you or your child experience any of the following symptoms: dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitching, involuntary movements, loss of awareness, disorientation, or convolutions, your physician.

MAINTENANCE

This VGM uses the same surface for video display and player controls. Because players use their fingers, the entire screen and cabinet will quickly become covered with fingerprints. We recommend that you clean the VGM frequently to ensure maximum customer interest.

NOTICE: AVOID ABRASIVE CHEMICALS.

bleach, lemon, vinegar, trisodium phosphate (tsp), or any abrasive ingredients. These products can damage the surface of the touchscreen and degrade VGM performance.

Do not use products with ammonia,

♦

Glass surfaces

You may clean glass while power is on. Do not use ammonia or chlorine. Apply a mild glass cleaner to a clean cloth or sponge, then use this to wipe screen. Do not apply the cleaner directly on the glass! Liquids could drip down into the touchscreen circuits and cause erratic operation.

♦

Calibration

Calibrate the screen each time you clean the VGM. Use the Calibration Test steps to determine if recalibration is required (refer to Calibration in this section).

Example: If the crosshair appears slightly below where you touched the screen, place your finger just below the calibration dot. If the crosshair appears slightly above and to the right of where you touched the screen, place your finger just above and to the right of the calibration dot.

Repeat the previous step for the second calibration dot. When the crosshair is centered on your finger the screen is accurately calibrated. To accurately calibrate the screen, several attempts may be required to compensate for the individuality of the touchscreen and its mounting on the CRT.
