HEALTH WARNING

Take a break of around 10-15 minutes for every hour you play, even if

you feel that you don’t need it. Playing video games also carries the

risk of such conditions as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, tendonitis and

skin irritation. If your hands, wrists or arms become tired or sore while

playing, stop and rest for a few hours. If symptoms continue during or

after play, stop and consult a doctor as soon as possible.

To avoid eyestrain, use your Gizmondo™ device in reasonably lit areas,

and hold your console at a reasonable distance from your eyes. We also

advise against playing when overly tired or suffering from a lack of sleep.

Please note that playing video games or watching movies can lead to

motion sickness, so if you experience any nausea or dizziness while

playing, stop and take a rest. Do not drive, operate heavy machinery

or engage in any similar mentally demanding activity until you are fully

recovered.

IMPORTANT

Playing video games or watching movies causes a very small number

of people to experience ‘photosensitive epileptic seizures’, the result of

ﬂashing lights or patterns present in many games. You may even be at

risk even if you have never suffered symptoms before. If you or a close

relative have a di-agnosed epileptic condition, consult your doctor before

play-ing video games or watching movies. Similarly, if you experience

any symptoms of epilepsy while playing, you should stop IMMEDIATELY

and visit a doctor as soon as possible. Symptoms include any of

the following: dizziness, altered vision, twitching in the eyes or face,

other involuntary movement, loss of awareness of your surroundings,

disorientation and convulsions.

NOTICE TO PARENTS

Please go over this information with your children before they begin to

use their Gizmondo™ devices. Make sure they are properly supervised

when they are using their Gizmondo™ devices. Ensure they notify you

if they feel symptoms described in the Health Warning notice of this

document and take necessary action as outlined above.

The Gizmondo™ device is not designed and is not suitable for those

under 15.

PIRACY NOTICE

We take piracy seriously: It damages legitimate developers, publishers

and retailers alike. Furthermore, any unauthorized reproduction of all

or any game part of the Gizmondo™ device or unaut-horised use of

registered trademarks is likely to constitute a criminal offence. If you

suspect any game product is an unauthorised copy, or you have any

information about pirated Gizmondo™ device products, please get in

touch with our helpline. Relevant contact details are located at the back

of this manual.

3.0 REGISTERING YOUR GIZMONDO™ DEVICE

3.4 GUARDIAN REGISTRATION

Guardian registration is done via the Gizmondo™ device website.

Registering as a Guardian is a measure that enables parents to take

advantage of some of Gizmondo™ device’s tracking features. For

example, it enables you to receive urgent/emergency messages from

your children if they use the applicable button. Guardian registration

also enables GeoFences to be set up. These are virtual boundaries of

a particular radius established around a Gizmondo™ device’s current

location. Should it wander outside the set boundary the Guardian

receives an alert. The Guardian sets a time limit within which the

GeoFence is active, as well as a time when the GeoFence should go live.

Registering as a Guardian can by done from the MyGiz link at

www.gizmondo.com.

When your registration is complete, you’ll receive an SMS message with

your terminal’s username and password. This can be used to register for

additional services at www.gizmondo.com.

Once you’ve installed your SIM card and charged your battery, you’re

ready to get going on your Gizmondo™ device

With the movie player, you can playback video content stored either on

the device or from an SD card. The list of movie ﬁles available shows up

automatically, with those stored on your Gizmondo™ device’s internal

memory appearing ﬁrst. Files on the SD card will be highlighted in a

different colour.

The movie player screen is divided into three areas. These are:

1. Movie List

2. Preview Screen

3. Function/Control Icons

The keypad buttons are intuitively designed to perform media operations.

For example, press the Accept/Select button to PLAY, the Back/Decline

5.3 I CAN PLAY MUSIC

The music player feature enables you to playback music ﬁles that are

stored internally or on the SD card. In terms of control and functionality,

the application runs in parallel to the Movie Player. The music player will

ﬁrst verify each music ﬁle and ascertain whether there is a name ﬁeld.

If it ﬁnds none, the ﬁle will be presented as “-ﬁlename”. The player also

shows the track length in min.sec format. However, if the ﬁlename size is

too long then this will impede visibility on the track duration from being

displayed

Album list is shown on a rolling folder from the left-hand side of the

screen. You can view this folder by pressing the east D-Pad button. This

folder makes it possible for more information to be shown on the screen.

Navigation of the album list is governed by the north/south D-Pad.

Albums are listed on the left with the associated track on the right.

Tracks can only be selected when you’re not currently playing a ﬁle.

This is controlled by the keypad REWIND and FORWARD buttons, or the

north/south D-Pad when the rolling folder album list is not displayed.

Music control icons are highlighted once a track is playing.
