Seizures, Blackouts & Eyestrain
To reduce eyestrain and avoid headaches, it is always a good idea to hold the screen a
comfortable distance from your eyes, use in a well-lit area, and take frequent breaks.
Some people may be susceptible to seizures or blackouts (even if they have never had one
before) when exposed to flashing lights or light patterns, such as when playing video games, or
watching videos with flashing-light effects.
Discontinue use and consult a physician if any of the following symptoms occur: seizures,
blackout, convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, or disorientation.
Caution About High Volume Usage
Exposure to loud noise from any source for extended periods of time may affect your
hearing. The louder the sound, 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, you may experience 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 physician.
Children
Keep your mobile device and its accessories away from small children. These products
are not toys and may be hazardous to small children. For example, a choking hazard may exist
for small, detachable parts.
