Safety and health warnings
To reduce the risk of personal injury, discomfort, or property damage, read all following warnings before
using the headset:
WARNING! Read and follow all provided setup and operating instructions.
• Review the hardware and software recommendations. The risk of discomfort might increase if all
hardware and software recommendations are not followed.
• Your headset and software are not designed to be used with any unauthorized devices, accessories, or
software. Use of an unauthorized device, accessory, or software might result in an injury to you or others,
and might cause performance issues or damage to your system.
• To reduce the risk of discomfort, adjust the Windows® setting for interpupillary distance (IPD) for each
user.
• The virtual reality experience requires an unimpaired sense of motion and balance. Do not use the headset
when you are experiencing any of the following: tiredness; the influence of alcohol or drugs; a hangover;
digestive problems; emotional stress or anxiety; or a sickness such as a flu, cold, or earache. Otherwise,
you might increase your susceptibility to adverse symptoms.
• HP recommends seeing a doctor before using the headset if you are pregnant, elderly, have pre-existing
binocular vision abnormalities or psychiatric disorders, or suffer from a serious medical condition such as a
heart condition.
WARNING! Some people (about 1 in 4,000) might experience light flashes or patterns, severe dizziness,
seizures, eye or muscle twitching, or blackouts. This might occur while they are watching television, playing
video games, or experiencing virtual reality, even if they have never had a seizure or blackout before or have no
history of seizures or epilepsy. Such seizures are more common in people under the age of 20. Anyone who
experiences any of these symptoms should discontinue use of the headset and see a doctor. Anyone who
previously has had a seizure, loss of awareness, or other symptom linked to an epileptic condition should see a
doctor before using the headset.
WARNING! This product is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. The headset is not sized for
them, and improper sizing can lead to discomfort or health effects for younger children, who are in a critical
stage of visual development. Adults must make sure that children age 18 or younger use the headset in
accordance with these health and safety warnings. The adult should also limit the time children use the
headset, and make sure that they take breaks. Prolonged use should be avoided, as it could impact hand-eye
coordination, balance, and multitasking ability. Adults should monitor children during and after use for any
decrease in these abilities.
WARNING! Use the headset only in a safe environment. The headset produces an immersive virtual reality
experience that completely blocks your view of your actual surroundings.
Always be aware of your surroundings before using the headset, and use caution to avoid injury while using the
headset.
