Precautions for Viewing 3D Images
Cautions During Viewing
Do not use devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves (such as cellular phones or personal transceivers) near the
3D Eyewear. Doing so may cause the 3D Eyewear to malfunction.
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 flicker. 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 appear correctly if the 3D Eyewear is worn upside down or back-to-front.
For comfortable viewing
View from at least the recommended distance (3 times the effective height of the screen),
Recommended
Distance:
For a 42-inch television, 5.25’ (1.6 m) or more. For a 50-inch television, 6.23’ (1.9 m) or more.
When the top and bottom area of the screen are blackened, such as when playing movies, view the screen at a distance
3 times further than the height of the actual image. (That makes the viewing distance closer than above recommended
distance.)
Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if your skin feels unusual.
In rare cases, the paint or materials used in the 3D Eyewear may cause an allergic reaction.
Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if you experience any redness, pain, or itching on the nose or temples.
Prolonged use may cause such symptoms due to excess pressure, which may result in the user feeling unwell.
Use the 3D Eyewear where there is no interference from other devices with Bluetooth
®
signals.

Viewing 3D images
When the TV receives a 3D signal, it also tries to detect the 3D mode (format). 3D images are automatically
displayed according to the signal.
If the 3D images are not displayed correctly, or if the images cause discomfort, the images can be adjusted by
“3D format select” or “3D settings”.
