When viewing 3D images, your sense of distance
may be tricked or go wrong. Be careful not to hit the
TV screen or other people unintentionally. Ensure
there are no breakable objects around you to avoid
any accidental damage or injury.
●
Do not view 3D images from a distance shorter than
recommended. The recommended viewing distance
is at least 3 times of the image height.
