About Viewing of 3D Images
Do not move around while wearing the 3D Eyewear.
The surrounding area appears dark, which may result in falling or other accidents that
may cause injury.
In the event that you experience dizziness, nauses, or other
discomfort while viewing 3D images discontinue use and rest
your eyes.
Parents/guardians should monitor children's viewing habits to avoid their prolonged
use without rest periods.
About Lithium Battery
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace
only with the same or equivalent type.

Using Precautions
Liquid Crystal Shutter (Lens)
Do not apply pressure to the liquid crystal shutter. Also, do not drop or bend the
3D Eyewear.
Do not scratch the surface of the liquid crystal shutter with a pointed instrument etc.
Doing so may cause damage to the 3D Eyewear, and reduce the quality of the 3D
image.
Infra-red receiver section
Do not soil the infra-red receiver section or attach stickers etc. to it.
• Doing so may prevent the receiver from receiving signals from the television,
which may prevent the 3D Eyewear from operating normally.
If the 3D Eyewear is affected by other infra-red data communication equipment, the
3D images may not be displayed correctly.
Cautions during viewing
Do not use devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves (such as cellular
phones or personal transceivers) near the 3D Eyewear. Doing so may cause the
3D Eyewear to malfunction.
The 3D Eyewear cannot operate fully at high or low temperatures.
Please use within the specied usage temperature range (
If the 3D Eyewear is used in a room in which uorescent lights (50 Hz) are used,
the light within the room may appear to be ickering. In this case, either darken or
switch off the uorescent lights when using the 3D Eyewear.
Wear the 3D Eyewear correctly. 3D images will not be correctly visible if the
3D Eyewear is worn upside down or back-to-front.
Liquid crystal displays (such as computer screens, digital clocks, or calculators etc.)
may be difcult to see while wearing the 3D Eyewear. Do not wear the 3D Eyewear
when watching anything other than 3D images.

For comfortable viewing
View the screen at a distance at least 3 times further than the effective height of the
screen.
Recommended distance:
For a 50-inch television 1.9 m (6’2”) or more
For a 54-inch television 2.0 m (6’6”) or more
For a 58-inch television 2.3 m (7’6”) or more
For a 65-inch television 2.4 m (7’10”) or more
Using the 3D Eyewear at a distance closer than the recommended distance may
cause eyesight fatigue.
When the top and bottom area of the screen is blackened, such as movies, view the
screen at a distance 3 times further than the height of the actual image.
(That makes the viewing distance closer than above recommended distance.)
Only use the 3D Eyewear for the specied purpose.
Do not use if the 3D Eyewear is cracked or broken.
Doing so may result in injury or eyesight fatigue.
Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if your skin feels unusual.
In rare cases, the paint or materials used in the 3D Eyewear may cause an allergic
reaction.
Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if you experience any redness, pain, or
itching on the nose or temples.
Prolonged use may cause such symptoms due to excess pressure, which may result
in the user feeling unwell.
Viewing 3D images
When watching 3D movies, take an appropriate length break after watching a movie.
When watching 3D content on interactive devices such as 3D games or computers,
take an appropriate length break after using for 30 - 60 minutes.
Prolonged use may cause eyesight fatigue.

Troubleshooting/Q&A
Are the image settings switched to 3D images?
Some 3D image signals are not automatically
recognized as 3D images.
Set the television images to “On”.
For details, see the television operating
instructions.
Is there a sticker or other such item blocking
the infra-red reception section on the
3D Eyewear?
Images are not 3D.
The power of the
3D Eyewear turns off
by itself.
The 3D Eyewear operates by receiving signals
from the television.
Check that there are no objects blocking the path
between the television and 3D Eyewear.
Individual differences may occur in which the
3D images are difcult to see, or cannot be
seen, especially in users that have a different
level of eyesight between the left and right
eyes.
Take the necessary steps (wearing glasses etc.) to
correct your eyesight before use.
Are there any objects between the eyewear and
television?
Is there a sticker or other such item blocking
the infra-red reception section on the
3D Eyewear?
The 3D Eyewear operates by receiving signals
from the television.
Check that there are no objects blocking the path
between the television and 3D Eyewear.
If the eyewear stops receiving infra-red signal
from the television, the power automatically
switches off after 5 minutes.
There is something
wrong with the 3D
images.

Are the left and right sides of the 3D image
reversed?
Switch the left and right sides of the 3D image.
