Take off the Omni footwear when exiting the Omni.

Caution during disassembly of the Omni: the Arms are spring-loaded and will jump up once the safety

release square is disengaged. Do not disengage the safety release square on the Tower unless the Arm

is in its highest position (marked by the number “8”).

Use of Virtual Reality (“VR”) head mounted displays may present risks of injury. Be sure to read and follow all

manufacturer’s instructions and heed all warnings related to use of VR devices (sold separately).

Choking Hazard: Do not leave the Omni Pods or other small parts where they can be reached

Doc V: “The Support Locks are intended to provide extra stability and help you have a great ﬁrst experience of the Omni while you get used to the low friction operation of the Base. Once you’ve hit your Omni stride, I recommend removing them for even greater freedom of movement, and of course – jumping! Note that with the Locks attached to the Supports, you won’t be able to jump while using the Omni. Please don’t attempt to do so while these are in place!” 11.
