• Use of non-Midway parts or circuit modifications may cause serious injury or equipment damage!
• Federal copyright, trademark and patent laws protect this game. Unauthorized modifications may be illegal under 

Federal law. The modification ban also applies to Midway Games Incorporated and game logos, designs, publica-
tions and assemblies. Moreover, facsimiles of Midway equipment (or any feature thereof) may be illegal under fed-
eral law, regardless of whether or not such facsimiles are manufactured with Midway components.

WARNING. 

Prevent shock hazard and assure proper game operation. Plug this game into a properly grounded 

outlet. Do not use a cheater plug to defeat the power cord's grounding pin. Do not cut off the ground pin.

CAUTION. 

A very small portion of the population has a condition which may cause epileptic seizures or momen-

tary loss of consciousness when viewing certain kinds of flashing lights or patterns that are present in our daily envi-
ronment. These persons may experience seizures while watching some kinds of television pictures or playing certain 
video games. People who have not had any previous seizures may nonetheless have an undetected epileptic condition.

If you or anyone in your family has experienced symptoms linked to an epileptic condition (e.g. seizures or loss of 

awareness), immediately consult your physician before using any video games.

We recommend that parents observe their children while they play video games. If you or your child experience the 

following symptoms: dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitching, involuntary movements, loss of awareness, 
disorientation, or convulsions, DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY and consult your physician.

CAUTION. 

Information in this manual is subject to change without notice. Midway reserves the right to make 

improvements in equipment function, design, or components as progress in engineering or manufacturing methods 
warrants.
