Some individuals may experience eye soreness, altered vision, migraine, muscle twitching, convulsion, blackout, loss of awareness or disorientation when exposed to flashing or flickering lights or other light stimulation on a television screen or while playing video games. If you experience any of these symptoms while playing, discontinue use immediately and consult your doctor.

Stop playing immediately if you experience symptoms like headache, dizziness, nausea, fatigue, similar symptoms to motion sickness, or if you feel discomfort or pain in any body part such as eyes, ears, hands, arms, or feet. If the condition persists, seek medical attention.

Radio waves may affect electronic equipment or medical devices (e.g., pacemakers). If you use a pacemaker or other medical device, consult your physician or the manufacturer of your medical device before using the wireless networking feature (Bluetooth® and wireless LAN).

Do not use the wireless networking feature in the following locations:

– Areas where wireless network use is prohibited, such as in hospitals. Abide by medical institution regulations.

– Areas near fire alarms, automatic doors, and other types of automated equipment.

If you experience discomfort (such as eye strain, eye fatigue, or nausea) while watching 3D video images or playing stereoscopic 3D games on 3D televisions, you should immediately discontinue use of your television until the discomfort subsides. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor.

Generally, it is recommended that you avoid prolonged use of your PlayStation®4 system and take 15-minute breaks during each hour of play. However, when playing stereoscopic 3D games or watching 3D video images, the length and frequency of necessary breaks may vary from person to person – take breaks long enough to allow any feelings of discomfort to subside.

The vision of young children (especially those under 6 years old) is still under development. Consult with your child’s doctor or optometrist before allowing young children to watch 3D video images or play stereoscopic 3D games. Adults should supervise young children to ensure they follow the recommendations.

Do not turn off the system while data is being saved on or loaded from the system storage.

Do not remove the AC power cord from the electricity supply until the power indicator has turned off. If you disconnect the AC power cord while the power indicator is lit or blinking, data may be lost or corrupted, or the system may be damaged. Also, do not move the system or adjust its position when the power indicator is lit or blinking for the same reasons.

When connecting the system to a plasma or projection TV (except LCD screen types), do not leave a still image on the TV screen for an extended period of time, as this may leave a faint image permanently on the screen (screen burn-in).

Permanent hearing loss may occur if the headset or headphones are used at high volume. Set the volume to a safe level. Over time, increasingly loud audio may start to sound normal but can actually be damaging your hearing. If you experience ringing or any discomfort in your ears or muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked.

To protect your hearing:

– Limit the amount of time you use the headset or headphones at high volume.

– Avoid raising the volume to block out noisy surroundings.

– Lower the volume if you can’t hear people speaking near you.

If the headset or headphones cause discomfort to your skin, discontinue use immediately. If symptoms do not subside even after discontinuing use, seek medical attention.

When using the headset or headphones in particularly dry air conditions, you may sometimes experience a small and quick (static) shock on your ears. This is a result of static electricity accumulated in the body, and is not a malfunction of your headset or headphones.
