Important Health Warning About Playing Video Games
Photosensitive seizures
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to
certain visual images, including fl ashing 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 screen; use a smaller 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.
Playing KINECT Safely
Make sure you have enough space so you can move freely while playing.
Gameplay with KINECT may require varying amounts of movement. Make sure you
won’t hit, run into, or trip over other players, bystanders, pets, furniture, or other
objects when playing. If you stand or move during gameplay, you need good footing.
Before playing: Look in all directions (right, left, forward, backward, down, and up)
for things you might hit or trip over. Be sure your play area is far enough away from
windows, walls, stairs, etc. Make sure there is nothing you might trip on—for example,
toys, furniture, loose rugs, children, pets, etc. If necessary, move objects or people out
of the play area. Don’t forget to look up—be aware of light fi xtures, fans, or other
objects overhead when assessing the play area.
While playing: Stay far enough away from the television to avoid contact. Keep
enough distance from other players, bystanders, and pets—this distance may vary
between games, so take account of how you are playing when determining how far
away you need to be. Stay alert for objects or people you might hit or trip on—people
or objects can move into the area during gameplay, so you should always be alert to
your surroundings.
Make sure you always have good footing while playing. Play on a level fl oor with
enough traction for the game activities, and make sure you have appropriate footwear
for gaming (no high heels, fl ip fl ops, etc.) or are barefoot if appropriate.
Before allowing children to use KINECT: Determine how each child can use KINECT
and whether they should be supervised during these activities. If you allow children
to use KINECT without supervision, be sure to explain all relevant safety and health
information and instructions. Make sure children using KINECT play safely and
within their limits, and make sure they understand proper use of the system.
To minimize eyestrain from glare: Position yourself at a comfortable distance from
your monitor or television and the KINECT sensor; place your monitor or television
and KINECT sensor away from light sources that produce glare, or use window blinds
to control light levels; choose soothing natural light that minimizes glare and eyestrain
and increases contrast and clarity; and adjust your monitor’s or television’s brightness
and contrast.
Don’t overexert yourself. Gameplay with KINECT may require varying amounts
of physical activity. Consult a doctor before using KINECT if you have any medical
condition or issue that affects your ability to safely perform physical activities or if: You
are or may be pregnant; you have heart, respiratory, back, joint, or other orthopedic
conditions; you have high blood pressure or diffi culty with physical exercise; or you
have been instructed to restrict physical activity. Consult your doctor before beginning
any exercise routine or fi tness regimen that includes KINECT. Do not play under the
infl uence of drugs or alcohol, and make sure your balance and physical abilities are
suffi cient for any movements while gaming.
Stop and rest if your muscles, joints, or eyes become tired or sore. If you experience
excessive fatigue, nausea, shortness of breath, chest tightness, dizziness, discomfort,
or pain, STOP USING IMMEDIATELY, and consult a doctor.

GETTING STARTED
Welcome to Just Dance®3 on Kinect! Invite your friends, have fun and dance to the
coach’s choreography, or record your own and play them back with your friends! There
are 49 songs for you to choose from and new modes for lively games!
THE GAME
The goal of the game is to dance in rhythm, as closely as possible with the coach(es)
on screen. The fl ow of your body movements will be captured by the Kinect Sensor
and compared with those of the on-screen dancers in order to precisely evaluate your
performance. The amount of energy you put in is also detected and impacts your score,
so give it your all!
Exclusive to Kinect, Just Create allows you to record your own choreography, play it
back with your friends and share it online!
BASICS
• Make sure that you have enough space to dance.
• Always be aware of your play surroundings to avoid accidentally hitting objects.
• Follow the on-screen coach as if he/she were your refl ection in a mirror.
• Copy the coach’s movements as closely as possible.
• Follow the coach, follow the rhythm and dance up a storm!
• Once you’ve learned the choreography, the pictograms will help you prepare for
upcoming dance moves.

MENU NAVIGATION
First, face the Kinect Sensor. The Player closest to the Kinect Sensor will control the
menu. To take control of the menu, extend your arm to the side of your body. You are
controlling the menu when an item is highlighted. To stop controlling the menu, simply
drop your arm to your side.
RIGHT HAND
Your right hand will control any menu that is on the right side of the
screen.
LEFT HAND
Your left hand will control the back slider that is on the left side of
the screen.
CONFIRM SELECTION
To confi rm a selection, gently move your hand from your side
towards the front of your body. You’ll see the slider move on screen
as your hand moves. The movement should feel natural. We call this
a “Swipe”!
SCORE SYSTEM
DANCE MOVES
For every movement, the system evaluates your performance based on rhythm and
quality of execution. The Score Ball indicates how accurate you are.
You’ll need to do better than that!
Not there yet, but it’s a good start!
