Before First Use
Read these instructions carefully before use.
Remove both parts carefully from the packaging and inspect for any
damage.
Assemble the two halves by carefully locating the rim of the upper
shell into the rubber interfacing ring in the lower shell, and pushing
rmly together.
Important: The upper shell must be fully engaged in the rubber strip
prior to use! Failure to engage correctly could result in damage to the
product and injury to the user.
Connect the USB charger to the charging port (4), and charge for 30
minutes.
The button will ash yellow until the battery is fully charged. The but-
ton will ash green when fully charged and red when running low on
charge.
Important: The product should only be charged as required, and not
left permanently connected to the charger.
Using your VRGO
Ensure that all safety requirements have been taken into account.
Once the VRGO is fully charged, disconnect it from the USB charger,
and unplug the charger for later use.
Ensure that the VRGO is on a level surface, and is in its vertical orien-
tation (the system will self-calibrate after switch-on against this known
vertical).

VRGO must be used in an area which is clear of obstacles. Assess
the surrounding area, and remove any hazards which may cause injury
or harm to the user in the event that they lose control due to disorien-
tation.
VRGO can be used on most surfaces. Some surfaces can be slippery
however, and care should be taken to avoid these.
Suitable footwear should be worn when using VRGO to ensure full
control during gameplay. We recommend light-weight trainers or simi-
lar, which must provide sucient grip on the oor surface in use.
We recommend using Elbow and Knee protection when using VRGO
in a harsh environment, such as a hard oor. Users should consider
using protection similar to rollerblades, or skateboards depending on
their experience and ability.

guidelines for using VR responsibly.

medication, alcohol, or recreational drugs.
Do not use the VRGO if your balance is, or may become, impaired in
any way. This may for example be through illness such as an inner ear
infection, suering vertigo, or other balance related ailments including
hangovers.
If you are pregnant, or suering from any physical condition which
may make you more susceptible to injury, then you should seek advice
from your doctor before using VRGO.
Although the VRGO is intuitive to use, we recommend that you be-
come accustomed to using the device gradually, rstly without the VR
headset, then with short segment of immersion, before longer play
sessions.
