Watch 3D - Philips 32PFL9606H User Manual

2.4 Watch 3D

What you need
To watch 3D on this TV, you will need the Philips Active 3D
glasses PTA03 (sold separately). Other active 3D glasses might
not be supported.
To ensure the IR reception of the glasses, clear objects away
from the 3D transmitter on the TV.
Start 3D
To start watching a 3D movie or programme, insert a 3D movie
into a 3D Blu-ray Disc player or tune to a TV channel that
broadcasts programmes in 3D.
Press h (Home) and select the 3D Blu-ray Disc player or
select Watch TV and tune to the TV channel.
Start 3D
The TV can detect when 3D is available. If the TV detects 3D,
select Start 3D and press OK. Put on the 3D glasses. The glasses
need some seconds to adjust to the 3D signal from the 3D
transmitter.
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. To switch to 3D, press tADJUST, select 3D format and
select Side by side or Top / bottom according to the double
image positions.
Stop 3D
To stop watching 3D, press tADJUST and select the 2D in the
2D-3D menu.
You can also stop 3D when you switch to another channel or
connected device.
If there is no 3D signal transmitted, the 3D glasses switch off
automatically after 5 seconds.
Low battery
When the lenses flicker for 2 seconds at the 3D start-up, the
battery for these glasses is running out of charge. Replace them
before watching the next movie or programme. Use a type
CR2032 coin cell battery.

Specifics
• 3D input from a USB connection, a PC connection or Net TV
is not supported.
• If a 3D TV broadcast is switched to 2D, the TV shows only
the 3D-left picture.
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 metres 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.
Health warning
• If you or your family has a history of epilepsy or photosensitive
seizures, consult a medical professional before exposing yourself
to flashing light sources, rapid image sequences or 3D viewing.
• 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 first.
• 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 6
years of age as their visual system is not fully developed yet.
• Do not use the 3D glasses for any purpose other than
watching 3D TV.
• CHOKING HAZARD - Do not let children under 6 years of
age play with the 3D glasses, they could choke on the battery lid
or battery (if present).
