    • People who are prone to motion sickness in the real world also 
    have a heightened risk of experiencing discomfort while using 
    the Gear VR. Such individuals should take extra care to read and 
    follow these warnings carefully. 
    • We recommend consulting with a doctor before using the Gear VR 
    if you are pregnant, elderly, have psychiatric disorders, suffer from 
    a heart condition, have pre-existing binocular vision abnormalities 
    or suffer from a heart condition or other serious medical condition. 
    • Do not use the Gear VR if you have symptoms of squint, 
    amblyopia, or anisometropia. Using the Gear VR may aggravate 
    these symptoms. 
    • Do not use the Gear VR when the attached mobile device is hot 
    as this may cause burns. To prevent any injuries, take frequent 
    breaks when using the Gear VR. 
    • Make sure the Gear VR is level and secured comfortably on your 
    head, and that you see a single, clear image. If you wear the 
    Gear VR tilted to one side, you may feel discomfort.

    • Just as with the symptoms people can experience after they 
    disembark a cruise ship, symptoms of virtual reality exposure can 
    persist and become more apparent hours after use. 
    • Do not drive, operate machinery, or engage in other visually or 
    physically demanding activities that have potentially serious 
    consequences (i.e., activities in which experiencing any symptoms 
    could lead to death, personal injury, or damage to property), or 
    other activities that require unimpaired balance and hand-eye 
    coordination (such as playing sports or riding a bicycle, etc.) until 
    you have fully recovered from any symptoms. 
    • Do not use the Gear VR until all symptoms have completely 
    subsided for several hours. Make sure you have properly 
    con�gured the Gear VR before resuming use. 
    • Be mindful of the type of content that you were using prior to 
    the onset of any symptoms because you may be more prone to 
    symptoms based upon the content being used.

    • These post-use symptoms can include the symptoms above, as 
    well as excessive drowsiness and decreased ability to multi-task. 
    These symptoms may put you at an increased risk of injury when 
    engaging in normal activities in the real world. 
    • Using the Gear VR can make your muscles, joints or skin hurt. If 
    any part of your body becomes tired or sore while using the 
    Gear VR, or if you feel symptoms such as tingling, numbness, 
    burning or stiffness, stop and rest for several hours before using 
    the Gear VR again. If you continue to have any of the above 
    symptoms or other discomfort during or after play, stop using the 
    Gear VR and see a doctor. 
    • Use care when using earphones that contain magnets and can 
    emit radio waves. These can affect the operation of nearby 
    electronics, including cardiac pacemakers hearing aids and 
    de�brillators. If you have a pacemaker or other implanted medical 
    device, do not use the Gear VR without �rst consulting your doctor 
    or the manufacturer of your medical device. Maintain a safe 
    distance between the Gear VR and your medical devices, and stop 
    using the Gear VR if you observe a persistent interference with 
    your medical device.

    Additional Noti�cations 
    • The connected mobile device may become hotter than normal 
    when used with the Gear VR, especially if you use the devices to 
    play games for an extended period. When the Gear VR detects a 
    high temperature, the quality of the application may be degraded 
    or VR applications may be terminated in order to prevent 
    overheating. This is normal and does not affect the mobile 
    device’s lifespan or performance. 
    • When using apps that require a higher amount of power or using 
    these apps for an extended period, the mobile device may feel 
    hot to the touch. When the Gear VR detects high temperature, a 
    message appears on the screen warning you to stop wearing the 
    Gear VR and to wait until it cools down. Stop using the Gear VR 
    until the mobile device has cooled down, then resume use. This 
    is normal and should not affect the mobile device’s lifespan or 
    performance.

    • The mobile device’s battery runtime may become shorter than normal when it is used with the Gear VR since VR applications 
    use more of the device’s resources and may contribute to battery 
    drain. 
    • You may experience slow loading speed or diminished playback 
    quality in some circumstances, such as after extended use (to 
    prevent the device from overheating) or if your carrier or Wi-Fi 
    network is slow or out of range. 
    • The availability of VR-enabled content and applications and 
    
    language support may vary by region.
     
    Note : Use only Samsung-approved accessories. Using unapproved 
    accessories may cause performance problems and malfunctions that 
    are not covered by the warranty. Factory lens protectors are pre-
    installed on the Gear VR. Remove the lens protectors before you use 
    the Gear VR so you can see clearly. 
    When you are not wearing the Gear VR, do not place objects on the 
    internal proximity sensor. Doing so may cause the proximity sensor 
    to remain on and drain the connected mobile device’s battery.

    • 
    If you use a third-party controller, consult the manufacturer for 
    health and safety warnings for the controller. Always use included 
    wrist straps with controllers to secure the controller to your wrist 
    when in use. 
    • Do not modify or open any of the components provided. 
    • Do not use the product if any cable is damaged or any wires are 
    exposed. 
    • If a power adapter is provided, do not expose it to liquid or 
    moisture. 
    Note : The Gear VR does not come with a power adapter and receives 
    its power from the connected mobile device. 
    • Unplug the mobile device power adapter before cleaning, and 
    clean only with a dry cloth. 
    • Keep the power adapter away from open �ames and other heat 
    sources. 
    • Do not use your device if any part is broken or damaged.

    • 
    Do not attempt to repair any part of your device yourself. Repairs 
    should only be made by an authorized servicer. 
    • To avoid transferring contagious conditions (like pink eye), do 
    not share the Gear VR with persons with contagious conditions, 
    infections or diseases, particularly of the eyes, skin or scalp. The 
    Gear VR should be cleaned between each use with skin-friendly 
    antibacterial wipes (particularly the lenses) and dried with a 
    micro�ber cloth. 
    • Do not leave the Gear VR in direct sunlight. Exposure to direct 
    sunlight can damage the Gear VR. 
    • Do not shine a laser or external light source through the lenses as 
    it may damage the screen. 
    • Store components in their storage case when not in use to 
    minimize unintentional damage or environmental exposure.

    Caution
    : Use only charging devices and batteries approved by 
    Samsung. Samsung accessories are designed for your device to 
    maximize battery life. Using other accessories may invalidate your 
    warranty and may cause damage. Take care not to stand up or move 
    around while the Gear VR is “plugged in”, as this may cause injury to 
    the user or damage the device.
