Getting started
− If you use the Gear VR while the charger is connected to
the Gear VR's multipurpose jack, it is powered by
the charger and does not use the mobile device's
battery. When you use content that has high power
demand (more than 1 A) while the charger is
connected, the Gear VR uses two power sources. In
high power demand situations, the Gear VR is powered
by the charger and the mobile device's battery at the
same time.
− If the Gear VR is not used while the charger is
connected, the mobile device's battery will be charged.
− If the Gear VR is connectd to or disconnected from the
charger while the Gear VR is being used, the image on
the screen may be briefly inactive. During this period,
the screen recalibrates and the Gear VR may not
recognize your head movements.
• To save energy, unplug the charger when not in use. The
charger does not have a power switch, so you must unplug
the charger from the electric socket when not in use to
avoid wasting power. The charger should remain close to
the electric socket and easily accessible while charging.
