When using the stereoscopic display subsystem, combat the effects of stress on your eyes by
periodically taking a break. Stand up, stretch, and look away at something distant to change focal
depth and to relax your eyes.
NOTE For information on battery installation in the infrared glasses, refer to the documentation delivered with
the glasses.
