Important health warnings
About Photosensitive Seizures
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 undiag-
nosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epilep-
tic seizures” while watching video games.
hese seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including
lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking
or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or mo-
mentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of
consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from fall-
ing down or striking nearby objects.
Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you expe-
rience 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.
he risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced
by taking the following precautions:
•Sit farther from the television screen
•Use a smaller television screen
•Play in a well-lit room
•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.
About Musculoskeletal Disorders
Use of game controllers, keyboards, mice, or other electronic
input devices may be linked to serious injuries or disorders.
When playing video games, as with many activities, you may
experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoul-
ders, neck, or other parts of your body. However, if you expe-
rience symptoms such as persistent or recurring discomfort,
pain, throbbing, aching, tingling, numbness, burning sensa-
tion, or stiffness, DO NO IGNORE HESE WARNING SIGNS.
PROMP LY SEE A QUALIFIED HEAL H PROFESSIONAL, even if
symptoms occur when you are not playing a video game. Symp-
toms such as these can be associated with painful and some-
times permanently disabling injuries or disorders of the nerves,
muscles, tendons, blood vessels, and other parts of the body.
hese musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) include carpal tun-
nel syndrome, tendonitis, tenosynovitis, vibration syndromes,
and other conditions.
While researchers are not yet able to answer many questions
about MSDs, there is general agreement that many factors
may be linked to their occurrence, including medical and physi-
cal conditions, stress and how one copes with it, overall health,
and how a person positions and uses their body during work
and other activities (including playing a video game). Some
studies suggest that the amount of time a person performs
an activity may also be a factor.
Some guidelines that may help you work and play more com-
fortably and possibly reduce your risk of experiencing an MSD
can be found in the Healthy Gaming Guide (available at
http://www.xbox.com). hese guidelines address topics such as:
•Positioning yourself to use comfortable, not awkward
postures.
•Keeping your hands, fingers, and other body parts
relaxed.
•aking breaks.
•Developing a healthy lifestyle.
If you have questions about how your own lifestyle, activities,
or medical or physical condition may be related to MSDs, see
a qualified health professional.

Selecting a Location for
the Xbox CONSOLE
Select a Safe Location
When selecting a location for the Xbox video game system,
consider the following topics and the Important Safety In-
formation on page 4.
Prevent the Xbox Console from Falling
If the Xbox console falls and hits someone, especially a small
child, it could cause serious injury. o reduce the risk of such
injuries and damage to the Xbox console, place the Xbox
console on a surface that:
•is flat and level.
•is stable and not likely to tip over.
•allows all four feet of the Xbox console to be in
contact with the surface.
•is clean and free of dust or debris.
•is not likely to allow the Xbox console to slip or
slide off.
Take Precautions with Cables and Cords
Arrange all cables and cords so that people and pets are
not likely to trip over or accidentally pull on them as they
move around or walk through the area.
When the Xbox console is not in use, you may need to dis-
connect all cables and cords in the front and rear of the
Xbox console to prevent children from pulling on them. Do
not allow children to play with cables or cords.
Prevent the Xbox Console from
Overheating
Do not block any ventilation openings. Do not place the
Xbox console on a bed, sofa, or other soft surface that may
block ventilation openings.
Do not place the Xbox console in a confined space, such as
a bookcase, rack, or stereo cabinet, unless the space is well
ventilated.
Do not install the Xbox console near any heat sources, such
as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other devices (includ-
ing amplifiers) that produce heat.
Avoiding Damage to Your Television or
Other AV Equipment
Do not use with certain televisions. Some televisions, espe-
cially front- or rear-projection types, can be damaged if any
video games, including Xbox games, are played on them. Static
images presented during the normal course of gameplay may
"burn" into the screen, causing a permanent shadow of the
static image to appear at all times, even when video games
are not being played. Similar damage may occur from static
images created when placing a video game on hold or pause.
Consult your television owner's manual to determine if video
games can be played safely on your set. If you are unable to
find this information in the owner's manual, contact your tele-
vision dealer or the manufacturer to determine if video games
can be played safely on your set.
Before connecting or disconnecting any AV device (for example,
television or VCR), make sure that the power to the Xbox
console and to the AV device is turned off. his will reduce the
risk of electrical damage to the equipment.
o avoid damage to AV equipment or to the Xbox console, do
not touch AV cord terminals or the Xbox AV port with your
fingers or allow metal parts to touch them.
