Precautions for Viewing 3D Images
Infra-red receiver section
Do not soil the infra-red receiver section or attach stickers etc. to it.
• Doing so may prevent the receiver from receiving signals from the television, which may prevent the 3D Eyewear
from operating normally.
If the 3D Eyewear is affected by other infra-red data communication equipment, the 3D images may not be displayed
correctly.
Cautions During Viewing
If the 3D Eyewear is used in a room in which fluorescent lights (50 Hz) are used, the light within the room may appear
to be flickering. In this case, either darken or switch off the fluorescent lights when using the 3D Eyewear.
Wear the 3D Eyewear correctly. 3D images will not be correctly visible if the 3D Eyewear is worn upside down or
back-to-front.
Individual differences may occur in which the 3D images are difficult to see, or cannot be seen, especially in users that
have a different level of eyesight between the left and right eyes. Take the necessary steps (wearing glasses etc.) to
correct your eyesight before use.
For comfortable viewing
View the screen at a distance at least 3 times further than the effective height of the screen.
Recommended
distance:
For a 42-inch television, 5’3” (1.6 m) or more.
For a 50-inch television, 6’2” (1.9 m) or more.
Using the 3D Eyewear at a distance closer than the recommended distance may cause eyesight fatigue.
When the top and bottom area of the screen is blackened, such as during some movies, view the screen at a distance
3 times further than the height of the actual image. (That makes the distance closer than above recommended figure.)
Troubleshooting/Q&A
• Is “3D Eyewear” set to “On”?
Switch “3D Eyewear” set to “On”.
• Is “3D input format” set correctly?
When the HDMI receives information in which 3D mode is not detected, 3D
images are not automatically displayed.
Adjust “3D input format” according to the 3D images.
• Is there a sticker or other such item blocking the infra-red reception section on the 3D Eyewear?
The 3D Eyewear operates by receiving signals from the television.
Check that there are no objects blocking the path between the television and 3D Eyewear.
Images are not 3D
The power of the 3D Eyewear
turns off by itself
• Are there any objects between the eyewear and television?
• Is there a sticker or other such item blocking the infra-red reception section
on the 3D Eyewear?
The 3D Eyewear operates by receiving signals from the television.
Check that there are no objects blocking the path between the television and
3D Eyewear.
• If the eyewear stops receiving infra-red signals from the television, the power
automatically switches off after 5 minutes.
• Are the left and right sides of the 3D image reversed?
Switch “Left / Right swap” setting. (p. 22)
There is something wrong with
the 3D images
• Is the battery level low?
Battery is run out if the Indicator lamp does not light when 3D Eyewear is
powered on. Please replace the battery or recharge the battery.
For more details on operation please refer to operating manuals for the
purchased 3D Eyewear.
