Quick Setup Guide
IMPORTANT HEALTH AND SAFETY INFORMATION FOR 3D VIEWING: Please read and make sure you
understand the following safety information before using the product for viewing 3D content. Provide this
information to the end users of this product and ensure that they understand it.
It is widely recognized that stereographic display devices can cause discomfort, including, without limitation, dizziness,
nausea, headaches, eye fatigue and eye-strain, in some individuals. The 3D effect and experience will vary by individual,
depending on a variety of factors, including his or her health and vision. Runco recommends that users take regular breaks
when watching 3D video or playing games using stereoscopic displays. Discontinue use if any discomfort occurs. Parents
of young children should ensure their children avoid extensive exposure to electronic stereographic entertainment.
The quality and appropriateness of the 3D screen materials onto which the image is projected and the quality of the 3D
content being displayed both have a significant and noticeable impact on the overall 3D experience. A properly-calibrated
projection system, including glasses and an optimized third-party screen, displaying high-quality 3D content is the best
formula for immersive and comfortable 3D experiences. Please refer to the LightStyle™ LS-12HBd Installation/
Operation Manual for proper projector installation and usage instructions.
The glasses that accompany this product are not safe to use as sunglasses, protective eyewear or any use outdoors or
other than only in conjunction with the proper operation of the Runco product with which they are sold. It is common to dim
the lights in a home theater. Using 3D glasses and the immersive imagery of stereoscopic imagery can increase the risk of
tripping or falling the dark. Special care should be taken.
Do not tilt your head while using the 3D glasses.
