Health and safety warnings
•
Ease into the use of the Gear VR to allow your body to adjust;
use for only a few minutes at a time at first, and only increase
the amount of time using the Gear VR gradually as you grow
accustomed to virtual reality. Looking around and using
the input device when first entering virtual reality can help
you adjust to any small differences between your real-world
movements and the resulting virtual reality experience.
•
Do not use the Gear VR while in a moving vehicle such as a car,
bus, or train, as this can increase your susceptibility to adverse
symptoms.
•
Take at least a 10 to 15 minute break every 30 minutes, even
if you don’t think you need it. Each person is different, so take
more frequent and longer breaks if you feel discomfort. You
should decide what works best for you.
•
The Gear VR may be equipped with a “pass-through” feature
which permits you to temporarily see your surroundings for
brief real world interaction. You should always remove the Gear
VR for any situation that requires attention or coordination.
