If you or your family has a history of epilepsy
or photosensitive seizures, consult a medical

professional before exposing yourself to ashing

light sources, rapid image sequences or 3D

To avoid discomfort such as dizziness, headache
or disorientation, we recommend not watching
3D for extended periods of time. If you
experience any discomfort, stop watching
3D and do not immediately engage in any
potentially hazardous activity (for example
driving a car) until your symptoms have
disappeared. If symptoms persist, do not resume
watching 3D without consulting a medical

professional rst.

Parents should monitor their children during
3D viewing and ensure they do not experience
any discomfort as mentioned above. Watching
3D is not recommended for children under six
