Using the 3D Glasses

CAUTION

Not all consumers can experience and enjoy 3DTV. Some people suffer from stereo blindness which 

prevents them from perceiving the intended depth of 3D entertainment. Also, some people who watch 3D 

programming may experience initial feelings of motion sickness as they adjust to the picture. Others may 

experience headaches, eye fatigue or motion sickness. Some viewers might also experience epileptic 

seizures. Like a roller coaster, the experience is not for everyone.

The 3D Glasses are precision equipment. Handle them with care.

Improper use of the 3D Glasses or failure to follow these instructions can result in eye strain.

If you experience dizziness, nausea, or other discomfort while viewing 3D images, immediately 

discontinue use of the 3D Glasses. Using the 3DTV with incompatible 3D broadcasts or software can 

make images appear blurry or create overlapping images.

When viewing 3D images continuously, be sure to take a break periodically to prevent eye strain.

If you are nearsighted or farsighted or have astigmatism or a different level of eyesight between the 

left and right eyes, you should take the necessary steps, such as wearing eyeglasses, to correct your 

eyesight before viewing 3D images. The 3D Glasses can be worn over eyeglasses.

When viewing 3D images, keep the 3D Glasses horizontally level with the TV screen. If you tilt the 

3D Glasses with respect to the TV screen, the images viewed by the left and right eyes may appear 

significantly different or images may appear overlapping.

View 3D images at the appropriate distance from the TV screen. The recommended distance is three 

times the effective height of the TV screen.

Be careful of your surroundings when viewing 3D images. When you view 3D images, objects may appear 

closer or farther than they are. This may cause you to misjudge the distance and possibly result in injury 

if you accidentally hit the screen or surrounding objects. 

The 3D glasses are not recommended for people aged less than 6.

When children are viewing 3D images, be sure a parent or guardian is present. Monitor children viewing 

3D images, and if they show signs of discomfort, immediately discontinue use of the 3D Glasses.

People with a known history of photosensitivity and people with heart problems or poor health should 

not use the 3D Glasses. This can worsen existing health conditions.

Do not use the 3D Glasses for other purposes (such as general eyeglasses, sunglasses, or protective 

goggles).

Do not use the 3D function or 3D Glasses while walking or moving around. This may result in injuries due 

to running into objects, tripping, and/or falling.

When using the 3D Glasses, take care not to accidentally strike the TV screen or other people. Viewing 

3D images may cause you to misjudge the distance to the TV screen and accidentally strike the screen, 

resulting in possible injury.

It is recommended that you do not view 3D images if you are sleep deprived or if you have been drinking 

alcohol.

damage the 3D Glasses and reduce the quality of the 3D image.

•  Use only the cloth provided with the 3D Glasses to clean the lenses.

Caution during viewing 

•  Do not use devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves (such as cellular phones or wireless transceivers) near 

the 3D Glasses. Doing so may cause the 3D Glasses to malfunction.

•  The 3D Glasses cannot operate fully at extreme high or low temperatures. Please use them within the specified 

usage temperature range.

•  If the 3D Glasses are used in a room with fluorescent lighting, the light within the room may appear to flicker. In this 

case, either darken or turn off the fluorescent lights when using the 3D Glasses.

•  Wear the 3D Glasses correctly. 3D images will not be correctly visible if the 3D Glasses are worn upside down or 

back-to-front.

•  Other displays (such as computer screens, digital clocks, and calculators) may appear dark and difficult to view while 

wearing the 3D Glasses. Do not wear the 3D Glasses when watching anything other than 3D images.

•  If you lie on your side while watching the TV with 3D Glasses, the picture may look dark or may not be visible.

•  Be sure to stay within the viewing angle and optimum TV viewing distance when watching 3D images. Otherwise, 

you may not be able to enjoy the full 3D effect.

•  The 3D Glasses may not work properly if there is any other 3D product or electronic devices turned on near the 

glasses or TV. If this occurs, turn off the other 3D product or electronic devices or keep the devices as far away as 

possible from the 3D Glasses.

•  Stop using this product in any of the following situations:

When images consistently appear doubled while you are wearing the 3D Glasses

When you have difficultly perceiving the 3D effect

•  If the 3D Glasses are faulty or damaged, stop using them immediately. Continued use of the 3D Glasses may cause 

eye fatigue, headaches and illness.

•  If you have any abnormal skin reaction, stop using the 3D Glasses. In very rare instances, such reactions may be 

due to an allergic reaction to the coating or materials used.

•  If your nose or temples become red or you experience any pain or itchiness, stop using the 3D Glasses. Pressure 

caused by long periods of use may lead to such reactions and may result in skin irritation.
