How to view the 3D images
(see below)
Caution
To enjoy 3D images safely and comfortably, please read these instructions fully.
Viewing 3D Content
•
Do not use the 3D Eyewear if you have a history
of over-sensitivity to light, heart problems, or
have any other existing medical conditions.
•
Please stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately,
if you feel tired, are not feeling well or
experience any other uncomfortable sensation.
•
When you set the effect by using [3D
Adjustment], take into account that the vision of
3D images varies among different individuals.
•
Take an appropriate break after viewing a 3D movie.
•
Take a break of between 30 - 60 minutes after
viewing 3D content on interactive devices such
as 3D games or computers.
•
Be careful not to strike the TV screen or other people
unintentionally. When using the 3D Eyewear the distance
between the user and screen can be misjudged.
•
The 3D Eyewear must only be worn when
viewing 3D content.
•
If you do not look toward the TV screen for a
while when viewing 3D images, the 3D Eyewear
may be turned off automatically.
•
If you suffer from any eyesight problems (short /
far-sighted, astigmatism, eyesight differences
in left and right), please ensure to correct your
vision before using the 3D Eyewear.
•
Stop using the 3D Eyewear if you can clearly
see double images when viewing 3D content.
•
Do not use the 3D Eyewear at a distance less
than the recommended distance.
The recommended viewing distance is at least 3
times of image height.
TX-P42ST30B : 1.6 m or more
TX-P46ST30B : 1.7 m or more
TX-P50ST30B : 1.9 m or more
When the top and bottom area of the screen is
blackened, such as movies, view the screen at a
distance at least 3 times further than the height
of the actual image. (That makes the distance
closer than above recommended figure.)
