Photosensitivity/Epilepsy/Seizures

A very small percentage of individuals may experience
epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to certain light
patterns or flashing lights. Exposure to certain patterns or
backgrounds on a television screen or when playing video
games may trigger epileptic seizures or blackouts in these
individuals. These conditions may trigger previously
undetected epileptic symptoms or seizures in persons who
have no history of prior seizures or epilepsy. If you, or anyone
in your family, has an epileptic condition or has had seizures
of any kind, consult your doctor before playing.

IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE use and consult your doctor
before resuming gameplay if you or your child experience any
of the following health problems or symptoms:

• dizziness,

• altered vision,

• eye or muscle twitches,

• loss of awareness,

• disorientation,

EN

• seizures, or

• any involuntary movement or convulsion.

RESUME GAMEPLAY ONLY ON APPROVAL OF YOUR
DOCTOR.

safe level. Over time, increasingly loud audio may start to
sound normal but can actually be damaging your hearing.
If you experience ringing or any discomfort in your ears or
muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing
checked. The louder the volume, the sooner your hearing
could be affected. To protect your hearing:

– Limit the amount of time you use the headset or

headphones at high volume.
– Avoid raising the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
– Lower the volume if you can't hear people speaking near

you.

• Do not stand on or put objects on the system, and do not
stack the system with other devices.

7

• When using the headset or headphones in particularly dry

air conditions, you may sometimes experience a small and
quick (static) shock on your ears. This is a result of static
electricity accumulated in the body, and is not a
malfunction of your headset or headphones.

About the USB device

If "An unknown USB device has been connected" is displayed
on-screen, the reason may be one of the following:

• The connected USB device is not compatible with the

system.
