Seizures/Blackouts
Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to
flashing lights, such as when playing video games. These may occur even if a person
has never had a previous seizure or blackout.
If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history of such
occurrences, please consult your doctor before playing video games or enabling a
flashing-lights feature (if available) on your mobile device.
Discontinue use and consult a doctor if any of the following symptoms occur: convulsion,
eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movements or disorientation. It
is always a good idea to hold the screen away from your eyes, leave the lights on in the
room, take a 15-minute break every hour and stop use if you are tired.

Caution About High Volume Usage

Warning: Exposure to loud noise from any source for extended
periods of time may affect your hearing. The louder the volume sound
level, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected.
To protect your hearing:
• Limit the amount of time you use headsets or headphones at high volume.
• Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
• Turn the volume down if you can't hear people speaking near you.
If you experience hearing discomfort, including the sensation of pressure or fullness
in your ears, ringing in your ears or muffled speech, you should stop listening to the
device through your headset or headphones and have your hearing checked.

Repetitive Motion

When you repetitively perform actions such as pressing keys or entering
finger-written characters, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands,
arms, shoulders, neck or other parts of your body. If you continue to have discomfort
during or after such use, stop use and see a doctor.
