Photosensitivity
A very small percentage of individuals may experience epileptic seizures when
exposed to certain light patterns or flashing lights. Exposure to certain patterns
or backgrounds on a television screen or while playing video games, including
games played on the PSP™ system, may trigger an epileptic seizure in these
individuals. Certain conditions may trigger previously undetected epileptic
symptoms even in persons who have no history of prior seizures or epilepsy. If
you, or anyone in your family, has an epileptic condition, consult your
physician prior to playing. If you experience any of the following symptoms
while playing a video game - dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitches,
loss of awareness, disorientation, any involuntary movement or convulsions -
IMMEDIATELY discontinue use and consult your physician before resuming
play.
Radio waves

punishable by fines by using the wireless networking feature in an airplane
or by using the PSP™ system during takeoff or landing.
– Crowded areas.
– Areas near fire alarms, automatic doors and other types of automated
