Seng Up the Headset
1. Carefully remove the headset and the control box from the case. The headset cord is permanently aached to the control box. Avoid having this cord bend sharply.
2. Adjust the head strap so that it ts snugly around your head.
3. An over-the-head strap is included. If you choose to use it, loop the strap from the front to the back and adjust so it ts over your head comfortably. Adjust the over­the-head strap to t as desired.

4. If you wear glasses, you can adjust the distance of the lenses and screen by turning the screws on either side of the headset using a coin. Make sure that the adjustment sengs on both sides match aer making changes.
Note: Wearing glasses while using the headset will reduce your eld of view. You also risk scratching your lenses. If you are nearsighted, we recommend you use the included vision eye cups or contact lenses.
5. Three dierent pairs of lenses are included with the development kit. The tallest set (A) is designed for 20/20 or farsighted vision. The middle set (B) is designed for moderately nearsighted users. The shortest set (C) is designed for very nearsighted users. The lenses are designed to be swapped using an insert-lock-in-place mechanism. If you wish to wear correcve lenses while using the Ri, please use lens set A, the tallest lens cups and use the side screws of the Ri to adjust the headset to t on your head.
Note: To prevent dust from geng inside the headset, we recommend you turn the headset face down before changing lenses.
