Cleaning and disinfecting VIVE XR Elite

Here are a few tips to help you keep VIVE XR Elite clean and hygienic.

Do's

Dampen a cloth with a neutral, non-acidic cleaning solution and use it to wipe the hard surfaces of the headset and controllers clean, especially places you frequently touch with your hands.
Using a UVC cleaner is an effective and recommended way to decontaminate VR headsets and controllers. Before using a UVC cleaner on your VR devices, make sure to properly cover the headset lenses. Discoloration due to UV exposure is not covered by warranty.

Don'ts

Don’t spray or pour liquid directly on the headset or controllers.
Don’t use any liquids or cleaning solutions on the lenses.
Don’t expose the headset or controllers to direct sunlight.
Don’t use a volatile solvent such as alcohol to clean the temple pads.
Don't wash the face cushion or temple pads.
Don’t machine wash the headset or controllers.

Cleaning the lenses

Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth to wipe the headset lenses clean.
To avoid smudging the headset lenses while cleaning them, wipe in a circular motion from the center of each lens to its outer edge.
For optimal tracking and passthrough, clean the four tracking camera lenses and the passthrough camera lens with a microfiber cloth.
Never use any kind of cleaning solution on the lenses.
