Never wear the headset in situations that require
attention, such as running, bicycling, or driving.
•
Do not use the headset while in a moving vehicle
such as a car, bus, or train, as variation in speed
(velocity) or sudden movements may increase
your susceptibility to adverse symptoms.
The Guardian System.
•
The headset contains a
Guardian system feature,
a virtual boundary system
designed to assist you with
staying in your play space
and avoiding collisions with
objects (like furniture or walls) in your physical world
while you are in your virtual environment. Once you
have properly defined your play space according to
the on-screen instructions from your device and the
instructions in this Guide, the Guardian system will
help you to be aware of the boundaries you have
defined for your play space. It will also alert you when
you are getting close to those boundaries.
•
The space you define with the Guardian system
should be an area that is clear and away from
potential hazards. Please ensure you have a
minimum of 2 meters × 2 meters or 6.5 feet × 6.5
feet of obstruction-free floor space. Make sure you
leave additional space as a buffer between your
play space boundaries and potential hazards (like
furniture or walls) so you do not contact hazards if
your movement carries you beyond the play space,
if you lose your balance or trip, or if you quickly
extend your arms or hands beyond your play space
during active play.
•
It is important that you make sure the area within the
Guardian system boundary is clear of obstacles and
hazards as described in this Guide.
•
The Guardian system only assists if you enable the
Guardian system whenever you use the headset.
You must also properly define your play space in
accordance with the on-screen instructions and
this Guide each time you change any aspect of
your play space. Before using the headset each
time, confirm that Guardian is enabled, your play
space is properly defined, and that no new potential
hazards were introduced within your play space.
•
The Guardian system is only a guide, and may not
always show you the exact boundaries of your
play space. The Guardian system may not track
you properly in areas with featureless walls, glass,
or mirrors. You are still responsible for using the
headset in a safe environment as described in
this Guide.
