Viewing 3D Imaging
WARNING
Viewing Environment
Viewing Time
y
When watching 3D contents, take 5 - 15 minute breaks every hour. Viewing 3D contents for a long
period of time may cause headache, dizziness, fatigue or eye strain.
Those that have a photosensitive seizure or chronic illness
Some users may experience a seizure or other abnormal symptoms when they are exposed to a
y
flashing light or particular pattern from 3D contents.
Do not watch 3D videos if you feel nausea, are pregnant and/ or have a chronic illness such as
y
epilepsy, cardiac disorder, or blood pressure disease, etc.
3D Contents are not recommended to those who suffer from stereo blindness or stereo anomaly.
y
Double images or discomfort in viewing may be experienced.
If you have strabismus (cross-eyed), amblyopia (weak eyesight) or astigmatism, you may have
y
trouble sensing depth and easily feel fatigue due to double images. It is advised to take frequent
breaks than the average adult.
If your eyesight varies between your right and left eye, revise your eyesight prior to watching 3D
y
contents.
Symptoms which require discontinuation or refraining from watching 3D contents
Do not watch 3D contents when you feel fatigue from lack of sleep, overwork or drinking.
y
When these symptoms are experienced, stop using/watching 3D contents and get enough rest until
y
the symptom subsides.
» Consult your doctor when the symptoms persist. Symptoms may include headache, eyeball pain,
dizziness, nausea, palpitation, blurriness, discomfort, double image, visual inconvenience or fatigue.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
11
CAUTION
Viewing Environment
Viewing Distance
y
Maintain a distance of at least twice the screen diagonal length when watching 3D contents. If you
feel discomfort in viewing 3D contents, move further away from the TV.
Viewing Age
Infants/Children
y
Usage/ Viewing 3D contents for children under the age of 5 are prohibited.
Children under the age of 10 may overreact and become overly excited because their vision is in
development (for example: trying to touch the screen or trying to jump into it. Special monitoring and
extra attention is required for children watching 3D contents.
Children have greater binocular disparity of 3D presentations than adults because the distance
between the eyes is shorter than one of adults. Therefore they will perceive more stereoscopic depth
compared to adults for the same 3D image.
Teenagers
y
Teenagers under the age of 19 may react with sensitivity due to stimulation from light in 3D contents.
Advise them to refrain from watching 3D contens for a long time when they are tired.
Elderly
y
The elderly may perceive less 3D effect compared to the youth. Do not sit closer to the TV than the
recommended distance.
