on the screen.
* Except LCD screen types
• Parents are encouraged to monitor children in online
activities to ensure safe and responsible Internet usage.
• Permanent hearing loss may occur if the headset 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 or any discomfort 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 the headset 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.
• Do not use the headset or headphones if they cause
discomfort to your skin. If the headset or headphones cause
discomfort to your skin, discontinue use immediately. If
symptoms do not subside even after discontinuing use,
seek medical attention.

8
• When using the headset or headphones in particularly dry
air conditions, you may sometimes experience a small and
quick (static) shock on your ears. This is a result of static
electricity accumulated in the body, and is not a
malfunction of your headset or headphones.
About the USB device
If "An unknown USB device has been connected" is displayed
on-screen, the reason may be one of the following:
• The connected USB device is not compatible with the
system.
• The connected USB device is compatible with only some
software titles.
• Too many USB devices are connected to the USB hub.

Images 3D
Certaines personnes peuvent ressentir une gêne (tension ou
fatigue oculaire, ou nausées) durant le visionnage d'images
vidéo en 3D ou la lecture d'un jeu vidéo en 3D stéréoscopique
sur un téléviseur compatible 3D. Si vous ressentez une telle
gêne ou toute autre sensation de malaise, arrêtez
immédiatement d'utiliser votre téléviseur jusqu'à ce que la
gêne s'estompe.
SCE conseille à tous les utilisateurs d'observer des pauses
régulières durant le visionnage de vidéo en 3D ou la lecture de
jeu vidéo en 3D stéréoscopique. Bien que la durée et la
fréquence de ces pauses nécessaires puissent varier d'une
personne à l'autre, observez des pauses suffisamment
longues pour permettre à la gêne ou la sensation de malaise
de s'estomper. Si les symptômes persistent, consultez votre
médecin.
Notez que la vision chez les enfants en bas âge
(particulièrement avant 6 ans) est en développement constant.
Avant de permettre à votre enfant de regarder des vidéos en
3D ou de jouer à des jeux en 3D stéréoscopique, consultez son
pédiatre, ophtalmologiste ou autre médecin. Les jeunes
enfants doivent être sous la surveillance d'adultes pour
garantir que les recommandations ci-dessus sont respectées.
