Start Watching 3D
When the TV switches to 3D or when a notification is
shown that 3D is available, put on your 3D glasses.
If the TV cannot detect the 3D signal (the 3D signal
tag is missing), the 3D programme is shown as a
double image on screen. You have to switch on 3D
manually…

Optimal 3D Viewing
For an optimal 3D viewing experience, we
recommend that you:
• sit at least 3 times the height of the TV screen away
from the TV, but no further than 6 meters away.
• avoid fluorescent lighting (such as TL lighting or
certain energy saving light bulbs which operate on a
low frequency) and direct sunlight as they may
interfere with the 3D experience.
21.5
Care of the 3D Glasses
• Do not use cleaning chemicals containing alcohol,
solvent, surfactant, or wax, benzene, thinner,
mosquito repellent or lubricant. Using these
chemicals can cause discoloration or cracks.
• Do not expose the 3D glasses to direct sunlight,
heat, fire or water. This may result in a product
malfunction or fire.
• Do not drop, bend or apply force to the lenses of
the 3D glasses.
• Use a clean soft cloth (microfiber or cotton flannel)
to clean the lenses to avoid scratching them. Never
spray cleaner directly onto the 3D glasses. This may
damage the electronics (for Active 3D glasses).
• Do not use cleaning chemicals containing alcohol,
solvent, surfactant, or wax, benzene, thinner,
mosquito repellent or lubricant. Using these
chemicals can cause discoloration or cracks.
21.6
Health Warning
• Watching 3D is not recommended for children under
the age of six.
• If you or your family have a history of epilepsy or
photosensitive seizures, consult a medical
professional before exposing yourself to flashing light
sources, rapid image sequences or 3D viewing.
• 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 first.
• To avoid discomfort such as dizziness, headache or
disorientation, we recommend not watching 3D for
extended periods of time.
• Do not use the 3D glasses for any purpose other
