If you haven't already charged your Meta Quest, we recommend keeping your headset connected to power while it runs the initial updates. Adjust your headset fit and view To start, you'll want to gently adjust the lenses by shifting them left, then right until they click into the position that allows you to see what's on the screen most clearly. Once your headset is adjusted, follow the instructions in-VR and in the Meta Quest mobile app to complete the setup process. Putting your headset to sleep Putting your headset to sleep means that it will automatically “wake up” when it senses that the headset has been placed on someone’s head. When your headset is in sleep mode, power will still drain from the device, although much more slowly than when it’s in use. You can put your headset to sleep by pressing the power button on your headset. You can wake it back up by placing the headset on your head. Turning your headset off Turning your headset off means that the system is completely off, and will only turn on when the power button is held. When your headset is turned off, much less power will be drained than if it were in sleep mode. You can turn your Meta Quest headset off by holding down the power button for at least three seconds until the indicator light turns off and you hear the power down chime.
