Children:
This product should not be used by children under the age of 13,
as the headset is not sized for children and improper sizing can lead to
discomfort or health effects, and younger children are in a critical period in visual
development. Adults should make sure children (age 13 and older) use the headset in
accordance with these health and safety warnings including making sure the headset is
used as described in the Before Using the Headset section and the Safe Environment
section. Adults should monitor children (age 13 and older) who are using or have used the
headset for any of the symptoms described in these health and safety warnings (including
those described under the Discomfort and Repetitive Stress Injury sections), and should limit
the time children spend using the headset and ensure they take breaks during use.
Prolonged use should be avoided, as this could negatively impact hand-eye coordination,
balance, and multi-tasking ability. Adults should monitor children closely during and after
use of the headset for any decrease in these abilities.
General Precautions:
To reduce the risk of injury or discomfort you should
always follow these instructions and observe these precautions while using
the headset:
●
Use Only In A Safe Environment:
The headset produces an immersive virtual reality
experience that distracts you from and completely blocks your view of your actual
surroundings.
o
Always be aware of your surroundings before beginning use and while using the
headset. Use caution to avoid injury.
o
Use of the headset may cause loss of balance.
●
Remember that the objects you see in the virtual environment do not exist in the
real environment, so don’t sit or stand on them or use them for support.
●
Remain seated unless your game or
content experience requires standing.
o
Serious injuries can occur from tripping, running into or
striking walls, furniture or other objects, so clear an area
for safe use before using the headset.
o
Take special care to ensure that you are not near other
people, objects, stairs, balconies, open doorways,
windows, furniture, open flames, ceiling fans or light fixtures or other items that you can
bump into or knock down when using—or immediately after using—the headset.
o
Remove any tripping hazards from the area before using the headset.
o
Remember that while using the headset you may be unaware that people and pets may
