Please review the following material carefully. Failure to follow the instructions, or failure to

Dismantling or opening the case will void warranty and may possibly cause electric shock.
Avoid wet environments.
Head-mounted Display (HMD)
Some people may experience eye fatigue or discomfort after using the HMD for an extended
period of time. If you experience eye fatigue, nausea, dizziness, light-headedness,
disorientation, or any other symptom that could be attributed to the HMD, stop using it
immediately for a short period of time. Refer to the instructions that accompany your HMD
to ensure that the unit is properly fitted and is properly adjusted. If the symptoms persist
after normal use is resumed, stop immediately and consult a physician before continuing.
Never use the HMD when operating a motor vehicle or any other device or machinery that
requires the use of both eyes. If you need to move or walk while wearing the HMD, always turn
the HMD display unit away from the eye so that you have an unobstructed view of your
surroundings prior to moving or walking. Remember that the HMD is tethered via a power cable
to the CPU. Do not use the HMD in environments where any part of the HMD might get
entangled with other objects, moving equipment or machinery. Do not use the HMD in
situations where any obstruction to your view might cause harm or damage to yourself or others.
Epilepsy and seizures are experienced by a very small portion of the population. These affected
individuals have a condition which may cause them to experience epileptic seizures or have
momentary loss of consciousness when viewing certain kinds of flashing lights or patterns that
are commonly present in our daily environment. Individuals that have not had any previous
seizures may nevertheless have an undetected epileptic condition.
Discontinue the use of the HMD immediately and consult your physician if you experience any
of the following symptoms while wearing the HMD: eye or muscle twitching, involuntary body
movements, disorientation, loss of awareness of your surroundings, mental confusion,
dizziness, sickness, and/or convulsions.
Statement of Intended Use
The HMD should not be subjected to extreme environments and extra care should be taken in
handling, packaging and shipping of the unit.
DO NOT use the HMD while operating any vehicle or other machinery. DO NOT use the HMD while
maintaining or servicing equipment with moving parts which are exposed and present a hazard.
