Usage Warnings

Avoid Damaging Your Television or Other AV Equipment

Do not use with certain televisions or equipment. Some televisions can be damaged if certain interactive television services or functions are used, such as tickers and online video games that can remain static on your screen. Static images presented during the use of interactive television services may "burn" into the screen, causing a permanent shadow of the static image to appear, even when such service or feature is not used. Consult your television owner's manual to determine if such features and functions can be used safely on your set. If you are unable to find this information in the owner's manual, contact your television dealer or the manufacturer to determine if such static images will cause damage to your television. Before connecting or disconnecting any audio-visual (AV) device, make sure that the power to the settop box and to the AV device is turned off. This will reduce the risk of electrical damage to your equipment. To avoid damage to AV equipment or to the set-top box, do not touch AV cord terminals or the set-top box's AV ports with your fingers or allow metal parts to touch them.

Warning About Photosensitive Seizures

Exposure to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in the use of online video games, each user interface, the video phone (if available), and other functions/applications which may be included as part of your interactive television service, can cause a very small percentage of people to experience a seizure. Even people without a history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause photosensitive epileptic seizures while watching or using video games. These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, which may include eye or face twitching, lightheadedness, altered vision, shaking or jerking of arms or legs, confusion or disorientation, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause a loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. Immediately stop using the service and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for and ask their children about the above symptoms because children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures.

Taking the following precautions may reduce the risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures:

Avoid using any such iTV features/services on large television screens

View your television in a well-lit room

Sit farther from the television screen

Do not use any such iTV features/services when drowsy or tired

If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before using the interactive television services.
