VR headset calibration
When you put on the VR headset at the start of a simulator ride, it needs to be calibrated briefly.
To do this, place both hands on the left and right of the steering wheel and look straight ahead. Remain like this and hold the accelerator and brake pedals down at the same time for 4 seconds.
You can recalibrate at any time. Just take off the VR headset briefly and put it back on.
During calibration, you should be able to see your surroundings through the goggles. If this is not the case (black background) or the environment appears unnaturally distorted, briefly switch off the VR headset by tapping the on/off switch and switch it on by tapping them again.
If this does not solve the problem, please contact the simulator administrator.
