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.
 Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if you feel tired, discomfort,
or any other uncomfortable sensation.
 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 television 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.
 Do not tilt your head and/or the 3D Eyewear while viewing 3D image.
Keep your eyes and the 3D Eyewear are on a horizontal level to the
television.
 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 3 times of image height.
For a 50-inch television about 1,9 m
For a 54-inch television about 2,0 m
For a 58-inch television about 2,3 m
For a 65-inch television about 2,4 m
 When the top and bottom area of the screen is blackened, such
as movies, view the screen at a distance 3 times of the height of
the actual image. (That makes the distance closer than above
recommended gure.)

Troubleshooting/Q&A
Images are not 3D.
Are the image settings switched to 3D images?
Some 3D image signals are not automatically
recognised as 3D images.
Set “3D Picture Display” to “3D”.
For details, see the television operating
instructions.
Is there a sticker or other such item blocking
the infra-red reception section on the
3D Eyewear?
If the eyewear stops receiving infra-red signal from
the television, the power automatically switches off
after 5 minutes.
Check that there are no objects blocking the path
between the television and 3D Eyewear.
Individual differences may occur in which the
3D images are difcult 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.
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?
If the eyewear stops receiving infra-red signal from
the television, the power automatically switches off
after 5 minutes.
Check that there are no objects blocking the path
between the television and 3D Eyewear.
There is something
wrong with the 3D
images.
Are the left and right sides of the 3D image
reversed?
Switch the left and right sides of the 3D image.
For details, see the television operating
instructions.
The indicator lamp
does not light when
switching on the power.
The battery is too low to operate the 3D
Eyewear.
The indicator lamp does not light when switching
on the power by pressing and hold the power
button for 1 second; that indicates the battery is
completely at. Replace the battery with new one.
