•Take a break if you experience discomfort or if the headset gets too hot.
•Attach a wrist strap to each controller and wear the wrist strap when using the controller. Using the wrist
strap may help prevent the controller from accidentally being dropped; however, do not fling or violently
throw the controller because the wrist strap may break.

Product care
Follow these tips to properly care for your VIVE Focus Plus.
•Keep the headset lenses away from sharp objects, including cable tips. This will prevent the headset
lenses from being scratched.
•When not in use, store the headset with the lenses pointed away from direct sunlight. Failure to do so may
damage the headset display.
•When cleaning the lenses, use a cleaning cloth and moisten it with alcohol or lens cleaner. Wipe in a
circular motion from the center to the outer edges of the lenses. Do not scratch the lenses or disassemble
other parts of the headset.
•To clean the face cushion, dampen a clean smooth cloth with cold water or diluted alcohol and gently
wipe the area you want to clean, and allow the cleaned area to dry.
