IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Follow these safety instructions when using or handling your Video Glasses to

reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons and property.

1. READ ALL OF THE INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY INFORMATION PROVIDED

BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT.

2. Use the product only for its intended use, as described in this manual.

3. Close supervision is needed when this product is by or near children.

4. Children under the age of seven (7) are still learning to focus and track with their

eyes. Their vision is still immature. For these reasons, THIS PRODUCT SHOULD

NOT BE USED BY CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF SEVEN (7).

5. A very small portion of the population may experience epileptic seizures when

viewing certain kinds of flashing lights or patterns that are commonly present in

our daily environment. These persons may also experience seizures while watching

some kinds of television pictures or playing certain video games on regular

monitors, including the use of a display system such as this. These effects can

be increased due to the large size of the video screens in this device. As a result

consult a physician if you have any epileptic condition before using this device or

if you experience any of the following symptoms while using this device: altered

vision, muscle twitching, other involuntary movements, loss of awareness of your

surroundings, mental confusion, and/or convulsions.

6. Immersive video, whether viewed on a regular TV, a movie theater screen or a

video display, can potentially have adverse effects on the user including motion

sickness, perceptual after effects and disorientation, and decreased postural

stability and eye strain. Take frequent breaks to lessen the potential

of these effects, as is commonly suggested for other items, such as keyboards

and computer monitors, that you may tend to fixate or concentrate on. If your

eyes show signs of fatigue or dryness or if any of the above symptoms is noted,

immediately discontinue use of this device and do not resume using it for at least

30 minutes after the symptoms have fully subsided.

7. Permanent or temporary hearing loss or impairment can result from excessive

volume levels emitted from the headphones. Always adjust the volume to a safe

level BEFORE wearing the product or headphones.

8. Always be aware of the world around you. This product will immerse you in realistic

sights and sounds, possibly causing you to forget about the real world around

you and the threats to your well-being and the well-being of others. DO NOT use

this product near stairs, balconies, or other things that can be tripped over, run

into, knocked down or fallen over. This product should only be used while you are

seated and never while using sharp or potentially dangerous objects, operating

any form of mechanical device, driving motor vehicles, or performing any act that

normally requires you to see what you are doing.

9. This product may be tethered to a power outlet and cables may extend between

such actions are not covered by the product’s limited warranty.

12. Do not drop, strike, or cause any portion of the product to be struck or shaken

aggressively. Such actions may damage the product and void your warranty.

Your Video Glasses EAR BUDS can be removed should you wish

to use an alternate speaker system.

To remove the EAR BUDS:

Grasp the hard plastic finger grip on the EAR BUD PLUG,

adjacent to the TEMPLE on the Video Glasses.

Pull straight back on the finger grip. DO NOT pull by the cable.

Reverse the process to re-insert the EAR BUD PLUGS,

ensuring the R and L are on the right and left side of the

NOSE BRIDGE ADJUSTMENT

Your Video Glasses are equipped with an adjustable NOSE BRIDGE

that provides a broad range of adjustment.

To adjust the NOSE BRIDGE:

Grasp the NOSE BRIDGE PAD between your thumb and forefinger

and bend the arm to an appropriate position.

Repeat with the other NOSE BRIDGE PAD and then make minor

adjustments until a comfortable position has been achieved.

Note: The NOSE BRIDGE is designed for occasional adjustment

by a single user. It is not designed for repeated bending or extreme

bend angles. These actions may weaken the support wires,

resulting in damage.

Prescription eyeglass wearers can adjust the NOSE BRIDGE to wear

their Video Glasses over and in front of their glasses.
