Notes to Users Viewing 3D Images
Pay attention to the following points when viewing images using 3D glasses with the projector:
• How 3D images are viewed may vary according to the individual.
• Do not use 3D glasses for viewing any material other than 3D images.
• Before viewing 3D images, make sure to read the manuals provided with your 3D glasses and 3D
compatible content.
• Avoid viewing 3D images for a long period of time. Take a break of 15 minutes or longer after
every hour of viewing.
• If you feel sick while viewing 3D images, stop viewing them. If you continue to feel sick, consult a
doctor.
• When viewing 3D images in a room where an LED lighting system or fluorescent lights are used,
you may feel that the light in the room flickers. If this is the case, dim the lights until you do not
notice any flickers, or turn off the lights.
• If you or any member of your family has a history of light-sensitive seizures, consult a doctor before
viewing 3D images.
4

• To view 3D images, sit in front of the screen so that your eyes are parallel and level with the screen.
• Viewing 3D images from a place that is too close to the screen may result in eye strain. The
distance between the screen and you should be at least three times the height of the screen.
• Adult supervision is required for children using 3D glasses.
• Viewing 3D images is not recommended for children under 6 years old. It may negatively affect
development of their vision. Consult a doctor before using 3D glasses.
