Important Safety Information – Read Before Use

The [Vive Tracker] product (the “product”) is intended to be used with other peripheral devices
(“peripherals”) with a virtual reality system. Read the following warnings and information before

use of the product and follow all safety and operating instructions applicable to the product, the
peripherals, and your virtual reality system. Failure to do so may cause bodily injury, electric
shock, fire, and property and other damage.

Ensure You Are Able to Safely Use the Product
Consult your doctor before using the product if you have pre-existing serious medical conditions

(such as a heart ailment), conditions that affect your ability to safely perform physical activities,
psychiatric conditions (such as anxiety disorders or post-traumatic stress disorder), or if you are
pregnant or elderly.

Do not use the product if you are sick, fatigued, under the influence of intoxicants/drugs, or are
not feeling generally well, as it may exacerbate your condition.

Ensure the Area Around You is Safe for Use of the Product
While wearing a virtual reality headset you are blind to the world around you. The image

displayed in the headset will not match the real world. Always use the product in a clear and safe
area. Do not rely on the chaperone system for protection. Do not use the product near stairways,
large windows, breakable items, heat sources, or outdoors. Clear the play area of people,
furniture, and other things that may be obstacles or block you from freely moving around. For
example, if a pet comes into the room while you are in virtual reality, you likely will not be

aware of the pet’s presence and you could trip over your pet while moving in the virtual reality

environment.
Be careful when handling and using your product and peripherals, as obstacles in the real world

may not be perceived while in virtual reality. Be sure to review and follow all safety information
included with peripherals you may attach to your product. Depending on the size and nature of
the peripheral to which you attach the product, additional hazards may be presented. Please
choose peripherals carefully and only use those that are compatible with the size and nature of
your play area.

It is recommended that the product be used only while under the supervision of another person
(to remain outside the play area) who is ready to warn of hazards that may arise while the
product is being used . Examples of hazards that could arise include, but are not limited to,
tangling of a cable in a manner that presents a tripping hazard, pets entering the area where the
product is being used, and the user walking too close to a wall or another hazard.

Take Care of the Product
While using the product and peripherals, always check that you have sufficient overhead and

surrounding clearance to allow you to fully extend your arms outward and upwards, including
clearance for the peripheral. Hitting persons or objects may cause injury or damage. Hold the

peripherals too tightly. Press the buttons lightly. If you have tingling, numbness, stiffness,

impact hand-eye coordination, balance, and/or cause other negative effects. While using the

become detached and create a choking hazard for young children. Consult your doctor
immediately if any parts of the product or peripherals are swallowed.

If older children are permitted to use the product, then adults should monitor them closely for
any negative effects during and after their use of the product. Do not allow older children to use
