Oculus VR Quest Safety & Warranty Manual page 28

Move carefully while you explore the virtual world
with 6 degrees of freedom. Fast or abrupt motion
may cause a collision or loss of balance.
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 You are responsible for creating and maintaining
a safe environment for use at all times.
o Serious injuries can occur from tripping or
running into or striking walls, furniture, other
54
objects or people, so clear an area for safe use
before using the headset.
o Consider having another person act as a spotter
while you move around in a virtual world.
o Use of the headset and Oculus controllers may
result in a loss of balance.
o Remember that the objects you see in the virtual
environment do not exist in the real world,
so don't sit or stand on them or use them
for support.
o Remain seated unless your game or content
experience requires standing or moving around
your play area. If you are using the headset while
seated, make sure you are seated on a secure
surface and stable platform.
o Take special care to ensure that you are not
near items that you may impact or strike when
using—or immediately after using—the headset,
like other people, objects, stairs or steps, ramps,
sidewalk(s), balconies, open doorways, windows,
furniture, open flames (like candles or fireplaces),
ceiling fans or light fixtures, televisions or
monitors, or other things.
o Use of the headset with glasses may increase
the risk of facial injury if you fall or hit your face.
