Getting started

•The Gear VR does not require charging as it is powered using the mobile device’s battery.

•You can charge your mobile device by connecting a charger to the Gear VR's multipurpose jack. Use only Samsung-approved chargers. Unapproved chargers can cause the mobile device's battery to explode or damage your devices.

−−If you use a Micro USB charger, connect a Micro USB connector before plugging the charger into the Gear VR. The Micro USB connector is only for battery charging.

11

Getting started

−−If you use the Gear VR while the charger is connected to the Gear VR's multipurpose jack, it is powered by the charger and does not use the mobile device's battery. When you use content that has high power demand (more than 1 A) while the charger is connected,

the Gear VR uses two power sources. In high power demand situations, the Gear VR is powered by the charger and the mobile device's battery at the same time.

−−If the Gear VR is not used while the charger is connected, the mobile device's battery will be charged.

−−If the Gear VR is connected to or disconnected from the charger while the Gear VR is being used, the image on the screen may be briefly inactive. During this period, the screen recalibrates and the Gear VR may not recognise your head movements.

•To save energy, unplug the charger when not in use. The charger does not have a power switch, so you must unplug the charger from the electric socket when not in use to avoid wasting power. The charger should remain close to the electric socket and easily accessible while charging.

Getting started

Connecting the mobile device and wearing the Gear VR

•Do not put on the Gear VR when you are wearing glasses. Doing so may cause facial injuries. If you need corrective lenses, it is recommended that you wear contact lenses when using the Gear VR.

•If you are farsighted or there is a big difference between your left and right eyes' vision, wear corrective lenses before using the Gear VR.

•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.

•Keep the lenses clean and protect them from getting scratched. If the lenses get dirty or steam up, clean them with the lens cleaning cloth.

17

Getting started

• The foam cushioning may get dirty if your face is sweating while you are wearing the Gear VR. Do not try to wash the foam cushioning. Remove the polluted foam cushioning from the Gear VR and attach a new one.

•The touchpad works only while you are wearing the Gear VR.

•A proximity sensor inside the Gear VR detects the position of your face. When wearing the Gear VR, the mobile device's screen will turn on and the Gear VR's touchpad will be activated. When you are not wearing the Gear VR, do not place objects near the proximity sensor inside the Gear VR. Doing so may cause the mobile device's screen to remain on and drain its battery.
