Warning

•

A special method of installation is required when suspending the projector from a ceiling (ceiling mount). If it is not installed correctly, it could fall causing an accident and injury.

•

If you use adhesives, lubricants, or oil on ceiling mount fixing points to prevent screws from loosening, or if you use things such as lubricants or oils on the projector, the projector case may crack causing it to fall from its ceiling mount. This could cause serious injury to anyone under the projector and also damage the projector.

•

Do not setup the projector on its side. This may cause malfunctions to occur.

•

Try not to setup the projector in locations subject to high humidity and dust, or in locations subject to smoke from fires or tobacco smoke.

Attention

Clean the air filter once every three months. Clean it more often if the environment is particularly dusty.

Warnings Regarding Viewing 3D Images

Note the following important points when viewing 3D images.

Warning

•

Do not disassemble or remodel the 3D Glasses. This could cause a fire to occur or the images to appear abnormal when viewing, causing you to feel unwell.

•

Do not install the lithium coin batteries with their polarities (plus and minus) inversed. If the batteries are inversed by mistake, they could explode or leak, causing a fire, injury, or damage the surroundings. Follow the instructions to install the batteries correctly.

•

Do not leave the batteries or the supplied nose pad within reach of children. They could be accidentally swallowed. If anything is accidentally swallowed, contact a doctor immediately.

Caution

About the 3D Glasses

•

Do not drop or press too forcefully on the 3D Glasses. If the glass sections and so on are broken, an injury could occur. Store the glasses in the soft glasses case supplied.

•

Be careful of the edges of the frame when wearing the 3D Glasses. If it pokes your eye and so on, an injury could occur.

•

Do not place your finger in any of the moving sections (such as the hinges) of the 3D Glasses. Otherwise an injury could occur.

Caution

About Wearing 3D Glasses

•

Make sure you wear the 3D Glasses correctly. Do not wear the 3D Glasses upside down. If the image is not displayed correctly into the right and left eyes, it could cause you to feel unwell.

•

Do not wear the glasses unless you are viewing a 3D image.

•

How a 3D image is perceived varies depending on the individual. Stop using the 3D function if you feel strange or cannot see in 3D. Continuing to view the 3D images could cause you to feel unwell.

•

Stop wearing the 3D Glasses immediately if they seem abnormal or a malfunction occurs. Continuing to wear the 3D Glasses could cause an injury or cause you to feel unwell.

•

Stop wearing the 3D Glasses if your ears, nose, or temples become red, painful, or itchy. Continuing to wear the 3D Glasses could cause you to feel unwell.

•

Stop wearing the 3D Glasses if your skin feels unusual when wearing the glasses. In some very rare cases the paint or materials used in the 3D Glasses could cause an allergic reaction.

Caution

Viewing Time

•

When viewing 3D images, always take periodic breaks during extended viewing. Long periods of viewing 3D images may cause eye fatigue. The amount of time and frequency of such breaks varies from person to person. If your eyes still feel tired or uncomfortable even after taking a break from viewing, stop viewing immediately.

Useful Functions

Caution

Watching 3D Images

•

If your eyes feel fatigued or uncomfortable when viewing 3D images, stop viewing immediately. Continuing to view the 3D images could cause you to feel unwell.

•

When viewing 3D images be sure to always wear 3D Glasses. Do not attempt to view 3D images without 3D Glasses. Doing so could cause you to feel unwell.

•

Do not place any breakable or fragile objects around you when using 3D Glasses. 3D images may cause you to move your body involuntarily, resulting in damage to nearby items or personal injury.

•

Only wear 3D Glasses when viewing 3D images. Do not move around while wearing 3D Glasses. Your vision may appear darker than normal, causing you to fall or injure yourself.

•

Try to stay as level with the viewing screen as possible when viewing 3D images. Viewing 3D images at an angle reduces the 3D effect and may cause you to feel unwell due to unintended color changes.

•

If using 3D Glasses in a room with fluorescent or LED lighting, you may see flashing or flickering throughout the room. If this should occur, reduce the lighting until the flickering goes away or turn off the lights completely when viewing 3D images. In some very rare cases, this flickering could trigger seizures or fainting for some individuals. If you begin to feel uncomfortable or unwell at any time when viewing 3D images, stop immediately.

•

Stay at least three times the height of the screen away from the screen when viewing 3D images. The recommended viewing distance for an 80-inch screen is at least 3 meters, and at least 3.6 meters for a 100-inch screen. Sitting or standing any closer than the recommended viewing distance may result in eye fatigue.

Caution

Health Risks

•

You should not use 3D Glasses if you are sensitive to light, have a heart condition, or are unwell. Doing so could aggravate your pre-existing conditions.

Caution

Recommended Age of Use

•

The minimum recommended age to view 3D images is six years old.

•

Children under the age of six are still developing and viewing 3D images may cause complications. Consult your doctor if you have any concerns.

•

Children viewing 3D images through 3D Glasses should always be accompanied by an adult. It is often difficult to tell when a child is feeling tired or uncomfortable, which could result in them feeling suddenly unwell. Always check with your child to ensure that they are not experiencing any eye fatigue during viewing.

Useful Functions

Caution

Lithium Coin Batteries

•

Only CR2032 lithium coin batteries can be used by this device. Do not attempt to use any other type of batteries. If the batteries are inversed by mistake, they could explode or leak, causing a fire, injury, or damaging the surroundings.

•

Do not put batteries in a flame or heat them up in any way. Doing so could result in an explosion.
