3D Precautions
CAUTION!
IMPORTANT HEALTH AND SAFETY INFORMATION FOR 3D IMAGES. READ THE FOLLOWING 
CAUTIONS BEFORE YOU OR YOUR CHILD USE THE 3D FUNCTION.
 
●Adults should frequently check on children who are using the 3D function. If your child shows 
any symptom such as eye fatigue, headache, dizziness, or nausea, stop the child from watching 
3D video immediately to rest.
 
●Do not use the 3D glasses for other purposes such as general eyeglasses, sunglasses, protective 
goggles, etc.
 
●While watching 3D content, you may experience eye strain, headache, dizziness and nausea. If 
eye fatigue occurs, stop viewing 3D video immediately, take off the 3D glasses, and rest.
 
●Viewing 3D video for an extended period of time may cause eye fatigue. If eye fatigue occurs, 
stop viewing 3D video immediately, take off the 3D glasses, and rest.
 
●Do not use the 3D function or 3D glasses while walking or moving around. Using the 3D function 
or 3D Active Glasses while moving around may result in injury from running into objects, tripping, 
and/or falling.
 
●If you sleep with the 3D glasses on, the temples on the glasses may become broken.
 
●Note that the temples on your 3D glasses are not foldable. Trying to fold the temples by force 
may damage the glasses.
 
●Do not shake your 3D glasses repeatedly. Shaking the glasses will power them on and can cause 
the battery to discharge faster than it should.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The following safety instructions are to ensure your personal safety and prevent property damage. 
Please read the following to ensure the proper use of the product.
 
●Do not place the product in a location exposed to direct sunlight, heat, fire or water. This may 
result in a product malfunction or fire.
 
●Do not apply force to the lenses of the 3D glasses. Do not drop or bend the product. This may 
result in a product malfunction.
 
●Keep components of the 3D glasses out of reach of children, and especially ensure children do 
not swallow one of the components. If your child swallowed a component, consult your doctor 
immediately.
 
●When cleaning the product, do not spray water or cleaner directly onto the surface of the product. 
Spraying water or cleaner directly onto the glasses may result in fire or electric shock, damage to 
the product’s surface, or cause the indicator labels on the product’s surface to come loose.
 
●Do not use chemicals containing alcohol, solvents, or surfactants, or chemicals such as wax, 
benzene, thinner,mosquito repellant, lubricant or cleaners. These may cause a discoloration of 
or cracks in the product surface and cause the indicator labels on the product’s surface to come 
loose.
 
●Since the product surface and lens are easily scratched, make sure to use a clean soft cloth (the 
cleaning cloth supplied with the product, a cloth consisting of superfine fibers or cotton flannel) 
when cleaning to avoid scratching either the surface or the lens. As the product may become 
scratched if there are any foreign items on the cloth, make sure to shake off any dust before 
using it.
 
●Do not disassemble, or attempt to repair or modify your 3D active glasses by yourself.
 
●Be careful not to let the temple ends of the 3D active glasses harm your eye.
 
●Do not sleep with the 3D glasses on. The arms on the glasses may become broken.
 
●Use your hands to put on or remove the 3D glasses.
