Setting up a safe play area for VR
Clear the area directly around you of objects and furniture and
always stay aware of your physical surroundings!
Put the device on your head in the center of your clear area
whether seated or standing.
Always check your physical space by lifting the headset or
partially lifting it and peaking to make sure you are still in
your clear area before you start a session or manually
recenter your view.
When you put the device on your head or when you manually
recenter using the controller the device will use your position
at that moment as the starting point and fade your view to
prevent accidental walking if you move too far from this
starting point.
Your view will fade anytime you move close to your arms
distance away from your starting point. This play area is
approximately 0.8 m in radius but you will see your view gently
start to fade after about 0.4 m of movement toward the edge.
When you notice your view starting to fade carefully move
back towards the center of your clear area.
If you exit the safe play area, your view will be fully occluded.
Carefully move back towards your original starting point while
being aware of your surroundings.
Listen to all warnings in the headset and always stay aware of
your physical surroundings.

Page 8
Tell friends or family that when you’re in VR you won’t
be aware of their presence and for them to stay a safe
distance away.
Do not start sessions outside, near stairwells, drops or
dangerous objects or environments. When you’re in VR
you are eectively asleep to the real world. Consider if the
chosen play space is a place where you would feel comfortable
falling asleep.

such as anxiety or post-traumatic stress. Pregnant or elderly
individuals should also consult a physician before using the
product.
Do not use the product if you are sick, tired, under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or other intoxicants, or if you are feeling
generally unwell. Use under these conditions may exacerbate
any symptoms you are already experiencing.

Seizures
This product produces visual eects which include flashing
lights. A small percentage of individuals may experience
seizures, epileptic seizures, fainting, or severe dizziness when
exposed to flashing lights or to certain light patterns, including
people who have no history of these conditions. If you have
a previous history of epilepsy, seizures, loss of awareness, or
other symptoms linked to an epileptic condition, consult your
doctor before using this product. Do not use the product if you
are tired.
If you are supervising or watching someone else using the
product, immediately stop them and consult a doctor if they
experience any of the following:
VR products can cause motion sickness for some u sers. I f you or
anybody else using the product feel dizzy or become nauseous
while playing, stop using the product and rest. Avoid operating
heavy machinery, driving, or taking part in strenuous activities
while symptoms persist.
Repetitive strain injuries and eyestrain
Follow these guidelines to avoid problems such as skin
irritation, carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis, or eyestrain:
after use, stop using the product and consult your doctor.
Avoid operating heavy machinery, driving, or taking part in
strenuous activities while symptoms persist.
Physiological and psychological eects
VR can lead to intense experiences. They are immersive and
can appear life-like to the user. As a result, you may experience
physiological and psychological reactions to them as if they
were real.
A common response to VR products is people trying to interact
physically with simulated objects. However, these objects do
not exist in the real world, and you may risk injury if you try to
interact with them as if they do.
Intense content, such as violence, horror, or emotional content,
can cause an adrenaline response. This can lead to increased
heart rate and blood pressure, anxiety and panic attacks,
fainting, or other serious reactions. In extreme cases, it can
trigger PTSD attacks. Avoid using the product if you have a
history of these types of reactions to real life events that are
similar to the content depicted by the product.

Specific Absorption Rate information
YOUR MOBILE DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves
(radio frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by
international guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an
independent scientific organization (ICNIRP) and include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
for mobile devices is 2 W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions with the device transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
The highest SAR values under the ICNIRP guidelines for your
device model are listed below:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was
recorded.
Europe 10 g
SAR Limit
(2.0 W/kg)
Lenovo
VR-1541F
Head

WLAN,
Bluetooth
0.097 W/kg
Page 25
During use, the actual SAR values for your device are usually
well below the values stated. This is because, for purposes of
system eciency and to minimize interference on the network,
the operating power of your mobile device is automatically
decreased when full power is not needed for the data
connection.
The lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR
value.
If you are interested in further reducing your RF exposure then
you can easily do so by limiting your usage or simply using a
hands-free kit to keep the device away from the head.
The Bluetooth capability of this device can only be used for
pairing with the controller. It cannot be paired with any other
Bluetooth device.
