Epilepsy and on-screen images
Certain people are susceptible to epileptic fits or losing
consciousness when faced with certain types of flashing lights in
our daily environment.
These people are exposed to the risk of fits if they watch
certain television images or if they view certain images while
they are browsing the Web. These phenomena may appear
even when the subject has no previous history of this problem
or has never suffered an epileptic fit.
If you, or a member of your family, has already suffered
symptoms linked to epilepsy (fit or loss of consciousness) in
the presence of stimulation by light, please consult your doctor
before using this product.
If you or any person using the equipment experiences
dizziness, involuntary movements or convulsion, please
immediately stop viewing and consult a doctor.
When you are browsing the Web or playing a Web-based
game, take the following precautions:
• Use the equipment in a well-lit room, and turn down the
brightness of your television screen.
• Sit at a reasonable distance from the television screen.
• Take a break for ten minutes every hour.
You should avoid using the Web if you are tired or have lost
some sleep.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (cont.)
Regulatory information
CAUTION: Do not attempt to modify your home terminal
without written authorization from the manufacturer.
Unauthorized modification could void your authority to
operate your home terminal.
Your home terminal has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. Your home
terminal generates, uses and can radiate radio-frequency energy and,
if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in
a particular installation. If your home terminal does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning your home terminal off and on, you are
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between your home terminal and receiver.
• Connect your home terminal to an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
