ASSEMBLING YOUR M4000 SMART GLASSES SYSTEM
- Before attaching the viewer to either side of the smart glasses frame, determine your dominant eye for optimum use of M4000 capabilities
- Attach the viewer to your preferred side of the safety glasses by sliding the mounting rail onto the temple mount on the frames. Once properly fitted, the unit will be adjustable by sliding forward and backward, and rotating/tilting the display.
- Using the same mounting process, attach the on-frame battery to the other side of the frames.
- Plug the USB-C viewer cable into the viewer and the on-frame battery (the viewer will automatically turn on).
- When ready to wear your M4000 Smart Glasses, lift the power cable over your head to rest on your shoulders as you place the Smart Glasses as you would a pair of glasses.
- Ear hooks and alternate nose pads are available for proper fit.
ADJUSTING & CLEANING THE M4000
Holding only the plastic housing of the lens, adjust left, right, up and down for optimal use. NEVER adjust by touching/moving the waveguide display—doing so may damage or destroy the waveguide display. When cleaning, you may stabilize the display by gently holding the outer edge, but only if the rest of the unit is properly supported.

DEVELOPING FOR M4000
Developer documentation is available at vuzix.com/developers. In order to power the unit during development, please note:
• The included battery does not support data pass-through.
• The viewer should be plugged into the developer’s machine with a USB C-to-C cable for the best experience.
• If a USB A-to-C cable must be used, then using a CDP-capable port will provide enough power. If the USB-A port is not providing sufficient power, the functions of the device may become impaired without notice, and the viewer may shut down completely.
CLEANING AND CARE
• Clean the viewer and battery with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Do not use all-purpose cleaners as these may damage the seals and impair the water resistance.
• Make sure that there is no standing water in the USB connector before inserting the cable.
• Do not insert sharp objects into any holes in the viewer as this may damage the mesh and impair the water resistance.
• Do not use metal objects to clean the USB port as this may cause electrical damage.
• The waveguide may be cleaned using a microfiber cloth and lens cleaner or warm water and a mild detergent. Do not hold or handle the M4000 by the screen. Avoid exerting pressure on the screen as that can cause it to crack.
