Viewing 3D projection using the 3D function
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS BEFORE YOU OR YOUR CHILD USE THE 3D FUNCTION.
Warning
Children and teenagers may be more susceptible to health issues
associated with viewing in 3D and should be closely supervised
when viewing these images.
Photosensitive Seizure Warning and Other Health Risks
Some viewers may experience an epileptic seizure or stroke when
exposed to certain ashing images or lights contained in certain
Projector pictures or video games. If you suffer from, or have a
family history of epilepsy or strokes, please consult with a medical
specialist before using the 3D function.
Even those without a personal or family history of epilepsy or
stroke may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause photosensitive epileptic seizures.
Pregnant women, the elderly, sufferers of serious medical condi-

English
Usage Notice
tions, those who are sleep deprived or under the inuence of
alcohol should avoid utilizing the unit’s 3D functionality.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, stop viewing 3D
pictures immediately and consult a medical specialist: (1) altered
vision; (2) light-headedness; (3) dizziness; (4) involuntary movements such as eye or muscle twitching; (5) confusion; (6) nausea;
(7) loss of awareness; (8) convulsions; (9) cramps; and/ or (10)
disorientation. Children and teenagers may be more likely than
adults to experience these symptoms. Parents should monitor
their children and ask whether they are experiencing these symptoms.
Watching 3D projection may also cause motion sickness, percep-
tual after effects, disorientation, eye strain and decreased postural
stability. It is recommended that users take frequent breaks to
lessen the potential of these effects. If your eyes show signs of
fatigue or dryness or if you have any of the above symptoms, immediately discontinue use of this device and do not resume using
it for at least thirty minutes after the symptoms have subsided.
Watching 3D projection while sitting too close to the screen for
an extended period of time may damage your eyesight. The
ideal viewing distance should be at least three times the screen
height. It is recommended that the viewer’s eyes are level with the
screen.
Watching 3D projection while wearing 3D glasses for an extended
period of time may cause a headache or fatigue. If you experience
a headache, fatigue or dizziness, stop viewing the 3D projection
and rest.
Do not use the 3D glasses for any other purpose than for watch-
ing 3D projection. Wearing the 3D glasses for any other purpose
(as general spectacles, sunglasses, protective goggles, etc.) may
be physically harmful to you and may weaken your eyesight.
Viewing in 3D projection may cause disorientation for some view-
ers. Accordingly, DO NOT place your 3D PROJECTOR near open
stairwells, cables, balconies, or other objects that can be tripped
over, run into, knocked down, broken or fallen over.
