CAUTION
• The 3D Glasses are precision equipment. Handle them with care.
• Improper use of the 3D Glasses or failure to follow these instructions can result in eye strain.
• If you experience dizziness, nausea, or other discomfort while viewing 3D images, immediately discontinue
use of the 3D Glasses. Using the binocular disparity 3D system of this TV with incompatible 3D broadcasts or
software can make images appear with a cross talk blur or create overlapping images.
• When viewing 3D images continuously, be sure to take a break periodically to prevent eye strain.
• If you are nearsighted or farsighted or have astigmatism or a different level of eyesight between the left and right
eyes, you should take the necessary steps, such as wearing eyeglasses, to correct your eyesight before viewing
3D images. The 3D Glasses can be worn over eyeglasses.
• When viewing 3D images, keep the 3D Glasses horizontally level with the TV screen. If you tilt the 3D Glasses
with respect to the TV screen, the images viewed by the left and right eyes may appear signifi cantly different or
images may appear overlapping.
• View 3D images at the appropriate distance from the TV screen. The recommended distance is three times the
effective height of the TV screen.
Examples of recommended distances
40-inch screen: Approx. 4.9 ft (1.5 m)/46-inch screen: Approx. 5.6 ft (1.7 m)
52-inch screen: Approx. 6.2 ft (1.9 m)/60-inch screen: Approx. 7.2 ft (2.2 m)
Viewing should not be done closer than the recommended distance.
• Be careful of your surroundings when viewing 3D images. When you view 3D images, objects may appear at
a distance closer or farther than the actual TV screen. This may cause you to misjudge the distance to the TV
screen and possibly result in injury if you accidentally hit the screen or surrounding objects.
• The 3D Glasses are only recommended for people ages 5 and older.
• When children are viewing 3D images, be sure a parent or guardian is present. Monitor children viewing 3D
images, and if they show signs of discomfort, immediately discontinue use of the 3D Glasses.
• People with a known history of photosensitivity and people with heart problems or poor health should not use
the 3D Glasses. This can worsen existing health conditions.
• Do not use the 3D Glasses for other purposes (such as general eyeglasses, sunglasses, or protective goggles).
• Do not use the 3D function or 3D Glasses while walking or moving around. This may result in injuries due to
running into objects, tripping, and/or falling.
•
When using the 3D Glasses, take care not to accidentally strike the TV screen or other people. Viewing 3D images may
cause you to misjudge the distance to the TV screen and accidentally strike the screen, resulting in possible injury.
Display Methods for 3D and 2D Images
Display method Example display Description
3D mode
(using the 3D
Glasses)
2D
➝
3D
• Converts normal 2D images into 3D images.
Side by Side
• Creates 3D images from 3D images displayed side
by side. The image is split into a left and right image,
and then the images are stretched and displayed
sequentially to create a 3D image.
Top and Bottom
• Creates 3D images from 3D images displayed on
the top and bottom. The image is split into a top and
bottom image, and then the images are stretched and
displayed sequentially to create a 3D image.
2D mode
(without using
the 3D Glasses)
Side by Side
➝
2D
• Creates 2D images from 3D images displayed side by
side. Only the left image is stretched and displayed. The
image does not appear in 3D.
Top and Bottom
➝
2D
• Creates 2D images from 3D images displayed on the
top and bottom. Only the top image is stretched and
displayed. The image does not appear in 3D.
Enjoying 3D Image Viewing
You can use special 3D Glasses to watch 3D-supported images on this TV.
• You can enjoy 3D movies on this TV by viewing the movie through SHARP 3D Glasses sold separately.
• To produce 3D images, liquid crystal shutters in the 3D Glasses alternately open and close imperceptibly fast to exactly
match alternating left and right video images displayed by the TV.
• Not all consumers can experience and enjoy 3D TV. Some people suffer from stereo blindness which prevents them from
perceiving the intended depth of 3D entertainment. Also, some people who watch 3D programming may experience initial
feelings of motion sickness as they adjust to the picture. Others may experience headaches, eye fatigue or continued motion
sickness. Like a roller coaster, the experience is not for everyone.
