WARNING: 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 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
• eye or muscle twitches • disorientation • any involuntary movement
• altered vision • loss of awareness • seizures or convulsion.
RESUME GAMEPLAY ONLY ON APPROVAL OF YOUR PHYSICIAN.
______________________________________________________________________________

Stop using the system immediately if you experience any of the following symptoms: lightheadedness,
nausea, or a sensation similar to motion sickness; discomfort or pain in the eyes, ears, hands, arms, or
