Setup

Unboxing and Initial Inspection

Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Verify that all items are present and undamaged.

Powering On and Pairing Controllers

Follow these steps for initial power-on and controller pairing:

  1. Charge the Headset: Connect the charging cable to the headset and a power source. The LED indicator will show charging status.
  2. Power On: Press and hold the power button on the side of the headset until the Meta logo appears.
  3. Insert Controller Batteries: Open the battery compartments on each Touch controller and insert the included batteries.
  4. Pair Controllers: The headset will guide you through the initial pairing process for the controllers. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on the headset.
  5. Install Meta Quest App: Download the Meta Quest app on your compatible smartphone to complete the setup and manage your device.

Operating

Navigating the Interface

Use the Touch controllers to interact with the virtual environment. The primary joystick on each controller allows for movement, while buttons (A, B, X, Y) and triggers are used for selections and actions. The home button on the right controller brings up the universal menu.

Adjusting the Headset

For optimal comfort and visual clarity, adjust the headset straps and interpupillary distance (IPD). The side straps and top strap can be tightened or loosened to secure the headset. The IPD can be adjusted by gently moving the lenses closer or further apart to match your eye spacing.

Using the Controllers

The Touch controllers are designed for intuitive interaction. The adjustable knuckle straps allow you to relax your hands without dropping the controllers, enhancing comfort during extended use. The anti-slip grip covers provide a secure hold and prevent sweat and dust accumulation.

Maintenance

Cleaning the Lenses

Use a dry microfiber cloth specifically designed for optical lenses. Wipe the lenses gently in a circular motion. Do not use liquid cleaners, alcohol, or abrasive cloths, as these can damage the lenses.

Cleaning the Headset and Straps

Wipe the exterior of the headset and controllers with a dry or slightly damp, non-abrasive cloth. For the fabric straps, a mild soap solution on a damp cloth can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth and air drying. Ensure no moisture enters the device openings.

Battery Care

To prolong battery life, avoid extreme temperatures. Store the headset in a cool, dry place. For long-term storage, ensure the battery is charged to approximately 50%.
