3D IMAGING
3D IMAGING
3D Technology
This TV can display in 3D via 3D broadcasting or 
when the TV is connected to a compatible device, 
such as a Blu-ray 3D Player. The viewer must 
wear compatible  3D glasses in order to see these 
images in 3D format.
 WARNING  
 y We recommend that you maintain a distance 
of at least twice the screen diagonal length 
when watching 3D videos.
 yTo watch the TV in 3D, you must put on your 
3D glasses. For best results, you should 
wear LG Brand 3D glasses. The 3D imaging 
may not display properly when using another 
brand of 3D glasses. Please see the 3D 
glasses manual for instructions on how to 
use the 3D glasses. 
 yWhen watching 2D images, it is recommend -
ed to take off the 3D glasses. If you watch 
2D images with the 3D glasses on, you may 
see distorted images. 
 y If you watch the 3D imaging too closely or 
for a long period of time, it may harm your 
eyesight.
 yWatching the TV or playing video games that 
incorporate 3D imaging with the 3D glasses 
for a long period of time can cause drowsi -
ness, headaches or fatigue to you and/or 
your eyes. If you have a headache, or other -
wise feel fatigued or drowsy, stop watching 
the TV and have a rest.
 y Pregnant woman, seniors, persons with 
heart problems or persons who experience 
frequent drowsiness should refrain from 
watching 3D TV.
 ySome 3D imaging may cause you to duck 
or dodge the image displayed in the video. 
Therefore, it is best if you do not watch 3D 
TV near fragile objects or near any objects 
that can be knocked over easily.
 yPlease prevent children under the age of 5 
from watching 3D TV. It may affect their vi -
sion development.
 y Warning for photosensitization seizure:  
Some viewers may experience a seizure or 
epilepsy when exposed to certain factors, 
including flashing lights or images in TV or 
video games. If you or anybody from your 
family has a history of epilepsy or seizure, 
please consult with your doctor before 
watching 3D TV. 
Also certain symptoms can occur in unspeci -
fied conditions without any previous history. 
If you experience any of the following symp -
toms, immediately stop watching the 3D 
imaging and consult a doctor: dizziness or 
light-headedness , visual transition or altered 
vision, visual or facial instability, such as eye 
or muscle twitching, unconscious action, 
convulsion, loss of conscience, confusion 
or disorientation, loss of directional sense, 
cramps, or nausea. Parents should monitor 
their children, including teenagers, for these 
symptoms as they may be more sensitive to 
the effects of watching 3D TV.
 y Risk of photosensitization seizure can be 
reduced with the following actions.
 »  Take frequent breaks from watching 3D TV.
 »  For those who have  vision that is differ-
ent in each eye, they should watch the TV 
after taking vision correction measures.
 »  Watch the TV so that your eyes are on the 
same level as the 3D screen and refrain 
from sitting too closely to the TV.
 »  Do not watch the 3D imaging when tired 
or sick, and avoid watching the 3D imag -
ing for a long period of time.
 »  Do not wear the 3D glasses for any other 
purpose than viewing 3D imaging on a 3D 
TV.  
 »  Some viewers may feel disoriented after 
watching 3D TV. Therefore, after you watch 
3D TV, take a moment to regain awareness 
of your situation before moving.

glasses are near electronic devices that 
use the same bandwidth (2.4 GHz), such 
as a microwave oven or wireless LAN 
product.
