IMPORTANT HEALTH WARNINGS
Photosensitive Seizure Warning
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing 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 light-headedness, 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.
Taking the following precautions may reduce the risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures:
o Sit further away from the screen
o Use a smaller TV screen
o Play in a well-lit room
o 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.
We also advise you to take regular breaks of 15 minutes every hour.
Design and specifications are subject to change without notice.
