If the condition persists, seek medical attention.

RADIO WAVES

Radio waves may affect electronic equipment or medical devices (for example, pacemakers), which may cause malfunctions and possible injuries.

• If you use a pacemaker or other medical device, consult your doctor 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 when using the console on their premises.

MAGNETS AND MEDICAL DEVICES
These products have magnets which may interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators and programmable shunt valves or other medical devices. Do not place these products close to such medical devices or persons who use such medical devices. Consult your doctor before using these products if you use such medical devices.

VOLUME LEVEL
Permanent hearing loss may occur if headsets 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, discomfort in your ears or muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the sooner your hearing could be affected.

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.

LITHIUM BATTERIES

Do not handle damaged or leaking lithium-ion batteries. If the internal battery fluid leaks, stop using the product immediately and contact technical support for assistance. If the fluid gets on to your clothes, skin or into your eyes, immediately rinse the affected area with clean water and consult your doctor. The battery fluid can cause blindness.

The controller contains a lithium-ion rechargeable battery.

Do not allow the battery to come into contact with fire or subject it to extreme temperatures such as in direct sunlight, in a vehicle exposed to the sun or near a heat source. Never attempt to open, crush, heat, or set fire to the controller or the battery. Do not leave the battery charging for a prolonged period of time when the controller is not in use.

YOUNG CHILDREN INJURIES
Keep the product out of the reach of young children. Young children may swallow small parts, pull on cables and cause the console or the controller to fall, or wrap the cables around themselves, which may inflict injury or cause an accident or a malfunction.

NEVER DISASSEMBLE OR MODIFY THE PRODUCT OR ACCESSORIES
There is a risk of fire, electric shock, or injury.

Precautions

Use of the AC power cord
Stop use, unplug the AC power cord from the electricity supply and disconnect any other cables immediately if the device functions in an abnormal manner, produces unusual sounds or smells or becomes too hot to touch.

Taking breaks

• Avoid prolonged continuous use of this product. Generally we recommend that you take 15-minute breaks for every hour of play.
• Avoid playing when you are tired or need sleep.
• Stop using the console immediately if you begin to feel tired or if you experience discomfort or pain in your hands or arms while operating the controller. If the condition persists, consult a doctor.
• If you experience any of the following health problems, discontinue use of the console immediately. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.
  – Dizziness, nausea, fatigue or symptoms similar to motion sickness
  – Discomfort or pain in a part of the body, such as eyes, ears, hands or arms

Vibration function

• If the controller is sitting on a flat surface, the vibration of the controller during gameplay may cause it to fall, leading to injury or malfunction.
• Do not use the vibration or trigger effect function if you have any ailment or injury to body parts such as the bones, joints, or muscles of the hand or arm or that may be affected by this vibration function. To disable the features, select Settings ****> Accessories from the home screen.

Static shock
When using a 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. This effect could be reduced by wearing clothes made from materials that do not easily generate static shock.

Moisture condensation
If the console is brought directly from a cold location to a warm one, moisture may condense inside the console. Should this occur, the console may not operate properly. In this case, turn off and unplug the console until the moisture evaporates (this may take several hours). If the console still does not operate properly, contact the appropriate PlayStation® customer service helpline which can be found within the guarantee section.

High temperature message
If the console becomes too hot, you will see a notification message on your screen. Continued use while the message displays may lead to the console becoming non-operational. If you see the message, turn off the console and wait until it cools down. After the console cools down, move it to a well- ventilated location that is not subject to high temperatures. Check to make sure the console vents are not blocked, and if you installed an M.2 SSD to the console, be sure that the heat-dissipation parts haven’t detached from the M.2 SSD. See “Install an M.2 SSD” (page 8) for more information on heat- dissipation parts.

Motion sensor
When using the motion sensor function of the controller, be cautious of the following points. If the controller hits a person or object, it may cause accidental injury or damage.

• Before using the motion sensor function, make sure you have enough space to move around.
• Firmly grip the controller to prevent it from slipping out of your grasp and causing damage or injury.
• If using a controller that is connected to the PS5® console with a USB cable, make sure there is enough space for the cable so that the cable will not hit a person or object.

Light bar
Do not stare at the light bar on the controller when it is blinking. Stop using the controller immediately if you experience any discomfort or pain.

Liquid, dust, smoke, steam, and heat

• Always ensure the product and its connectors are free of liquid, excess dust and small particles.
• Do not leave the product in the following areas during use, storage, or transportation.

• The console should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm away from your body.
• Do not use the product near water.
• Do not move or change the position of the console with a disc inserted. The vibration may result in scratching of the disc or the console.

Power off

• Do not turn off the console while data is being saved on or loaded from the SSD or

USB drives.

• 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 console may be damaged.

Use of the cover
Do not use the console without the cover. Doing so may cause fire, electrical shock, or malfunction. Do not remove the cover of the console immediately after use. The main unit of your PS5 console may still be hot immediately after use, and continued handling with the cover off may cause burns. If you need to remove the cover, turn off your PS5 console, unplug the AC power cord and cables, and wait for it to cool down.

Compatibility
Controllers intended for use with PlayStation®, PlayStation®2, and PlayStation®3 consoles, such as the analogue controllers (DUALSHOCK® and DUALSHOCK®2) and the DUALSHOCK®3 wireless controller, are not compatible with the PS5 console. The DUALSHOCK®4 wireless controller is compatible with PlayStation®4 format software on the PS5 console, but not with PS5 format software on the PS5 console.
