Safety Guide 4-408-600-12(1)

PCH-1001 / PCH-1101

To avoid electrical shock, do not open the

cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel

only.

For your safety, use only a licensed or genuine

Sony AC adaptor for the PS Vita system. Other

types may cause fire, electrical shocks or a

malfunction.

Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure and SAR:

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health

problems are associated with using low power wireless devices.

There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless

devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit

low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave

range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce

health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that

does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse

health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not

found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that

some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not

been confirmed by additional research. The PS Vita system has

been tested and found to comply with FCC radiation exposure

limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the

FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement

C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF)

Exposure rules. The maximum SAR level tested for the PS Vita

system has been shown to be 0.92 W/kg at 1 cm separation at

Body and 1.58 W/kg at Hand.

Use of any accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC/

IC RF exposure guidelines.

This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in

conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

NOTE:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the

limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC

rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference in a residential

installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate

radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications. However, there is no

guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to

radio or television reception, which can be determined by

turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try

to correct the interference by one or more of the following

measures:

– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different

from that to which the receiver is connected.

– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for

help.

WARNINGS

You are cautioned that any changes or modifications not

expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance

could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-

003.

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 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 physician before playing.

IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE use and consult your physician

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,

• seizures, or

• any involuntary movement or convulsion.

RESUME GAMEPLAY ONLY ON APPROVAL OF YOUR

PHYSICIAN.

Use and handling of video games to reduce the likelihood

of a seizure

• Use in a well-lit area and keep the screen a safe distance from

your face.

• Avoid prolonged use of the PS Vita system. Take a 15-minute

break during each hour of play.

• Avoid playing when you are tired or need sleep.

Radio waves

Radio waves may affect electronic equipment or medical

devices (for example, pacemakers), which may cause

malfunctions and possible injuries.

• If you use a pacemaker or other medical device, consult your

physician or the manufacturer of your medical device before

using the network features.

• Make sure that the PS Vita system is at least 6 inches (15 cm)

away from pacemakers when using the network features. If

you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking

place, turn off your PS Vita system immediately.

• Do not use the network features in the following locations:

– Areas where use of network features is prohibited, such as

in hospitals. Abide by medical institution regulations when

using the system on their premises.

– Areas near fire alarms, automatic doors and other types of

automated equipment.

• Be careful when using network features inside a car.

Depending on the type of vehicle, there may be rare

occasions where the system will affect the vehicle's electronic

instruments.

Contents

Depending on the software version in use, the system may

operate differently than described in this manual.

it for future reference. Parents and guardians of children should

read this guide and make sure that the child follows all safety

precautions.

Safety

This product has been designed with the highest concern for

safety. However, any electrical device, if used improperly, has

the potential for causing fire, electrical shock or personal injury.

To help ensure accident-free operation, follow these guidelines:

• Observe all warnings, precautions and instructions.

• Regularly inspect the AC adaptor, AC power cord and USB

cable.

• If your PS Vita system is damaged, do not use it. Unplug the

AC power cord from the electrical outlet and disconnect any

other cables immediately.

• Stop use, unplug the AC power cord from the electrical outlet

and disconnect any other cables immediately if the device

functions in an abnormal manner, produces unusual sounds

or smells or if it or the AC adaptor becomes too hot to touch.

• Sony Computer Entertainment America LLC (SCEA) strongly

recommends using, with your PS Vita system, only genuine

Sony AC adaptor, AC power cord and USB cable that are

compatible with your model of the PS Vita system. Because

SCEA cannot assure the safe use and operation of other types

of AC adaptor, AC power cord and USB cable, the use of any

such AC adaptor, AC power cord or USB cable with any PS

Vita system voids the warranty on the PS Vita system.

• Do not handle damaged or leaking lithium-ion batteries.

• Visit us.playstation.com/support or contact SCEA Consumer

Services at 1-800-345-7669 if the device does not operate

properly.

Use and handling

• Use in a well-lit area and keep the screen a safe distance from

your face.

• Avoid prolonged use of the PS Vita system. To help prevent

eyestrain, take a break of about 15 minutes during every hour

of play.

• If you experience any of the following health problems,

discontinue use of the system immediately. If symptoms

persist, consult with your physician.

– Dizziness, nausea, fatigue or symptoms similar to motion

sickness

– Discomfort or pain in a part of the body, such as eyes, ears,

hands or arms

• Permanent hearing loss may occur if earphones or

headphones are used at high volume. Set the volume to a

safe level. Over time, increasingly loud audio may start to

sound normal but can actually be damaging your hearing. If

you experience ringing 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 earphones 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.

• Keep the system and accessories out of the reach of small

children. Small children may swallow the media cards or wrap
