Viewing 3D images

You can enjoy viewing 3D images with contents or programmes corresponding to the 3D effect by wearing the 3D Eyewear.

Caution

To enjoy 3D images safely and comfortably, please read these instructions fully.

Viewing 3D Content

D o not use the 3D Eyewear if you have a history of over-

•

sensitivity to light, heart problems, or have any other existing medical conditions.

Please stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately, if you

•

feel tired, are not feeling well or experience any other uncomfortable sensation. When you set the effect by using [3D Adjustment], take

•

into account that the vision of 3D images varies among different individuals. T ake an appropriate break after viewing a 3D movie.

•

T ake a break of between 30 - 60 minutes after viewing

•

3D content on interactive devices such as 3D games or computers. B e careful not to strike the TV screen or other people

•

unintentionally. When using the 3D Eyewear the distance between the user and screen can be misjudged. T he 3D Eyewear must only be worn when viewing 3D

•

content. If you do not look toward the TV screen for a while when

•

viewing 3D images, the 3D Eyewear may be turned off automatically. If you suffer from any eyesight problems (short /

•

far-sighted, astigmatism, eyesight differences in left and right), please ensure to correct your vision before using the 3D Eyewear. Stop using the 3D Eyewear if you can clearly see double

•

images when viewing 3D content. D o not use the 3D Eyewear at a distance less than the

•

recommended distance. T he recommended viewing distance is at least 3 times of image height. TX-P42ST32Y : 1.6 m or more TX-P46ST32Y : 1.7 m or more TX-P50ST32Y : 1.9 m or more When the top and bottom area of the screen is blackened,

such as movies, view the screen at a distance at least 3 times further than the height of the actual image. (That

makes the distance closer than above recommended figure.)

3D Eyewear Use

P ay special attention when children are using the 3D

•

Eyewear. 3D Eyewear should not be used by children younger than about 5 - 6 years old, as a guideline. All children must be fully supervised by parents or guardians who must ensure their safety and health throughout the using 3D Eyewear. B efore using the 3D Eyewear, ensure no breakable objects

•

surrounding the user to avoid any accidental damage or injury.

R emove the 3D Eyewear before moving around to avoid

•

falling or accidental injury. Always store the 3D Eyewear in the case supplied with the

•

3D Eyewear when not in use. U se the 3D Eyewear only for the intended purpose and

•

nothing else. D o not use 3D Eyewear in the condition of high

•

temperature. D o not use if the 3D Eyewear is physically damaged.

•

D o not use any devices that emit the infrared signals near

•

the 3D Eyewear, as this may cause the 3D Eyewear false operations.

D o not use devices (such as mobile phones or personal

•

transceivers) that emit strong electromagnetic waves near the 3D Eyewear as this may cause the 3D Eyewear to

malfunction. D o not expose the infra-red receiver section to bright light

•

such as direct sunshine and fluorescent light. The 3D image may not be displayed correctly. Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if a malfunction or

•

fault occurs. Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if you experience

•

any redness, pain, or skin irritation around the nose or temples.

I n rare cases, the materials used in the 3D Eyewear may

L etterbox detection : If black bands at the top and bottom of the screen are detected, Auto mode chooses the best ratio and expands the image to fill the screen. If no aspect signals are detected, Auto mode enhances the image for optimum viewing pleasure.

Note

T he ratio varies depending on the programme, etc. If the ratio is out of the standard 16:9, black bands at the top and bottom

of the screen may appear. If the screen size looks unusual when a widescreen-recorded programme is played back on a VCR, adjust the tracking of the
