About the 3D glasses

• Do not repair, modify, or disassemble the 3D glasses by

yourself.

Doing so may cause you to become indisposed while
watching 3D images.

• Do not use the 3D glasses if they are cracked, broken, or

not working properly.

Continuing to use them in such a state may cause injury, eye
strain, or indisposition.

• Do not stand or walk while wearing 3D glasses.

You may lose your balance which could result in falls or
other accidents.

• Do not wear the 3D glasses for any purpose other than

viewing 3D programming.

Not for use as sunglasses.

• Do not drop, exert pressure on, or step on the 3D

glasses.

Doing so may damage the glass section, which may result in
injury.
Exposing the 3D glasses to liquid or excessive heat may
damage the function.

• If your nose or temple turns red, or you feel any pain or

discomfort, stop using the 3D glasses.

Such symptoms may occur when wearing 3D glasses for
long periods of time.

Cautions on watching the 3D images

• Some viewers may experience a seizure or blackout

when exposed to certain flashing images or lights
contained in certain 3D television pictures or video
games.

Anyone who has had a seizure, loss of awareness, or other
symptom linked to an epileptic condition, or has a family
history of epilepsy, should contact a health care
professional before using the 3D function.

• Avoid using the 3D function when under the influence

of alcohol.

• If you are ill or feel ill, you should refrain from viewing

3D images, and consult your health care provider as
may be appropriate.

• If you experience any of the following symptoms when

viewing 3D video images, stop viewing and contact
your health care provider:

Convulsions, Eye or muscle twitching, Loss of awareness,
Altered vision, Involuntary movements, Disorientation, Eye
Strain, Nausea/Vomiting, Dizziness, Headaches.

• If you feel eye fatigue or other discomfort from viewing

3D video images, remove the 3D glasses and
discontinue use until the condition improves.

• Viewing in 3D may cause dizziness and/or

disorientation for some viewers.
Therefore, to avoid injury do not place your TV near
open stairwells, balconies, or wires.
Also do not sit near objects that could be broken if
accidentally hit.

• When viewing 3D images, always wear 3D glasses.

Watching 3D images without specified 3D glasses may
cause eye strain.

• Do not wear 3D glasses or watch 3D images from steep

angles or while lying down.
The 3D effect is lost in these conditions and eye strain may
result.

• It is recommended that the viewer’s eyes and 3D glasses

are level with the screen.

• If you have prescription eye glasses or contact lenses,

wear the 3D glasses over them.
Watching 3D images without appropriate eyewear may
cause eye strain.

• If 3D images often appear doubled or if you cannot see

the images in 3D, stop viewing.
Continuous viewing may cause eye strain.

• Due to the possible impact on vision development,

viewers of 3D video images should be age 6 or above.
Children and teenagers may be more susceptible to health
issues associated with viewing in 3D and should be closely
supervised to avoid prolonged viewing without rest.

• For optimal 3D effect and to avoid eye fatigue it is

important that you properly select your viewing
position.
The best viewing position is at the indicated viewing
distance with your eyes at the same level as the center of
the display as shown below. The center of the optimum
viewing area varies from set to set. The usable viewing area
is generally over the range shown in the table below (actual
angle not depicted in drawing).

IMPORTANT: If you see a double image, your eyes are either
too high or too low in relation to the horizontal center of the
screen. Adjust your position so that it is closer to the center to
avoid eye fatigue and to enjoy optimum 3D effects.
