  Safety Information

About Photosensitive Seizures

A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when 

exposed to certain visual images, including fl ashing lights or patterns 

that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of 

seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause 

these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games.
These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including light-

headedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of 

arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. 

Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can 

lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects.
Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience 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. 
The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by sitting 

farther from the television screen, using a smaller television screen, 

playing in a well-lit room, and not playing 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.

Other Important Health and Safety Information   

The Xbox Instruction 

Manual contains important health and safety information that you 

should read and understand before using this software.

Avoid Damage to Your Television

Do not use with certain televisions. 

Some televisions, especially 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 in” to 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 fi nd this information in 

the owner’s manual, contact your television dealer or the manufacturer 

to determine if video games can be played safely on your set.
