Inserting Your Smartphone
- Prepare your phone: Download and launch your desired Virtual Reality app or game from your device's app store. Ensure the app is running and displaying the split-screen VR view before inserting.
- Open the headset tray: Gently slide out the smartphone tray from the front of the VR headset.
- Place your phone: Carefully place your smartphone into the tray, ensuring the screen's split line is perfectly aligned with the center mark of the tray. This alignment is crucial for proper VR viewing.
- Secure the tray: Slide the tray back into the headset until it clicks securely into place.

Adjusting the Headset for Comfort and Clarity
- Adjust head straps: Put on the headset and adjust the fully adjustable head strap to fit your head comfortably and securely. The design includes a soft nose piece to reduce pressure during extended wear.
- Adjust lenses (FD and OD): Use the focal distance (FD) and object distance (OD) adjustment knobs on the top of the headset to achieve a clear and sharp image. These adjustments help expand the viewing angle and perfectly match focal distance and unilateral myopic alignment, reducing distortion for an optimal viewing experience.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your BNEXT VR Headset, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Blurred or unclear image | Incorrect lens adjustment; dirty lenses; phone not aligned. | Adjust FD/OD knobs until image is clear. Clean lenses with a microfiber cloth. Re-align smartphone in the tray. |
| Discomfort during use | Head straps too tight or loose; improper nose piece positioning. | Adjust head straps for a snug but comfortable fit. Ensure the soft nose piece is correctly positioned to relieve pressure. |
| Phone buttons pressed accidentally | Phone not centered or protective pads not used. | Ensure smartphone is perfectly centered in the tray. Use any provided foam pads or spacers to prevent accidental button presses. Some phone settings may need to be adjusted to prevent emergency calls or power-off prompts. |
