Using Precautions
Lens
 
 
Do not apply pressure to the liquid crystal shutter. Also, do 
not drop or bend the 3D
  Eyewear.
 
 
Do not scratch the surface of the liquid crystal shutter with 
a pointed instrument etc. Doing so may cause damage to 
the 3D
  Eyewear, and reduce the quality of the 3D image.
Infra-red receiver section
 
 
Do not soil the infra-red receiver section or attach stickers 
etc. to it.
Doing so may prevent the receiver from receiving signals from 
the television, which may prevent the 3D
  Eyewear from operating 
normally.
 
 
If the 3D   Eyewear is affected by other infra-red data 
communication equipment, the 3D images may not be 
displayed correctly.
Cautions during viewing
 
 
Do not use devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves 
(such as cellular phones or personal transceivers) near 
the 3D
  Eyewear. Doing so may cause the 3D   Eyewear to 
malfunction.
 
 
The 3D
  Eyewear cannot operate fully at high or low 
temperatures. Please use within the specified usage 
temperature range (
 page 14).
 
 
If the 3D
 
Eyewear is used in a room in which fluorescent 
lights (50
 
Hz) are used, the light within the room may 
appear to be flickering. In this case, either darken or switch 
off the fluorescent lights when using the 3D
  Eyewear.
 
 
Wear the 3D
 
Eyewear correctly. 3D images will not be 
correctly visible if the 3D
  Eyewear is worn upside down or 
back-to-front.
 
 
Other kinds of displays (such as computer screens, digital 
clocks, or calculators etc.) may be difficult to see while 
wearing the 3D
 
Eyewear. Do not wear the 3D   Eyewear 
when watching anything other than 3D images.

For comfortable viewing
 
 
View the screen at a distance at least 3 times further than 
the effective height of the screen.
Using the 3D Eyewear at a distance closer than the 
recommended distance may cause eyesight fatigue.
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 viewing distance closer than above 
recommended distance.)
 
 
Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if your skin feels 
unusual.
In rare cases, the paint or materials used in the 3D Eyewear 
may cause an allergic reaction.
 
 
Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if you experience 
any redness, pain, or itching on the nose or temples.
Prolonged use may cause such symptoms due to excess 
pressure, which may result in the user feeling unwell.
Viewing 3D images
 
 
When watching 3D movies, take an appropriate length 
break after watching a movie.
 
 
When watching 3D content on interactive devices such as 
3D games or computers, take an appropriate length break 
after using for 30 - 60 minutes.
Prolonged use may cause eyesight fatigue.
