Warnings and Precautions
A very small portion of the population have a condition which may cause them to experience
epileptic seizures or have momentary loss of consciousness when viewing certain kinds of
flashing lights or patterns that are commonly present in our daily environment. These persons
may experience seizures while watching some kinds of television pictures or playing certain
video games. Players who have not had any previous seizures may nonetheless have an
undetected epileptic condition.
If you or anyone in your family has experienced symptoms linked to an epileptic condition
(e.g. a seizure or loss of awareness), immediately consult your physician before using any
video games.
We recommend that parents observe their children while they play these games. If you or
your child experiences any of the following symptoms: dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle
twitching, involuntary movements, loss of awareness, disorientation, or convulsions,
discontinue use immediately and consult your physician.
FOLLOW THE PRECAUTIONS BELOW WHENEVER USING YOUR AGM-0150:
•When using your AGM-0150 Gaming Device do not sit or stand too close to the
television screen. Play as far back from the screen as possible.
•Do not play if you are tired or need sleep.
•Always play in a well-lit room.
•Be sure to take a 10 to 15 minute break at least every hour while playing.

Repetitive Strain Warning
Some people may experience fatigue or discomfort after playing for a long time. Regardless of
how you feel, you should always take a 10 to 15 minutes break at least every hour whilst you
are playing. If however your hands or arms become tired or uncomfortable sooner stop
immediately and rest. If you continue to experience soreness or discomfort during or after play,
listen to the signals your body is giving you. Stop playing and consult a doctor. Failure to do so
could result in long-term injury. If your hands, wrists or arms have been injured or strained in
other activities, use of your system could aggravate the condition. Before playing, consult a
doctor.
