Enjoying 3D Image Viewing; Display Format For 3D And 2D Images - Sharp 60X50H Operation Manual

Enjoying 3D image viewing

You can use special 3D glasses to watch 3D-supported images on this TV.
• You can enjoy 3D movies on this TV by viewing the movie through the 3D glasses supplied with the TV or through optional 3D
glasses sold separately.
• To produce 3D images, liquid crystal shutters in the 3D glasses alternately open and close imperceptibly fast to exactly match
alternating left and right video images displayed by the TV.
• Not all consumers can experience and enjoy 3D TV. Some people suffer from stereo blindness which prevents them from
perceiving the intended depth of 3D entertainment. Also, some people who watch 3D programming may experience initial feelings
of motion sickness as they adjust to the picture. Others may experience headaches, eye fatigue or continued motion sickness, or
some viewers might also experience epileptic seizures or strokes. Like a roller coaster, the experience is not for everyone.
CAUTION
• The 3D glasses are precision equipment. Handle them with care.
• Improper use of the 3D glasses or failure to follow these instructions can result in eye strain.
• If you experience dizziness, nausea, or other discomfort while viewing 3D images, immediately discontinue use of the 3D glasses. Using the
binocular disparity 3D system of this TV with incompatible 3D broadcasts or software can make images appear with a cross talk blur or create
overlapping images.
• When viewing 3D images continuously, be sure to take a break periodically to prevent eye strain.
• If you are nearsighted or farsighted or have astigmatism or a different level of eyesight between the left and right eyes, you should take
the necessary steps, such as wearing eyeglasses, to correct your eyesight before viewing 3D images. The 3D glasses can be worn over
eyeglasses.
• When viewing 3D images, keep the 3D glasses horizontally level with the TV screen. If you tilt the 3D glasses with respect to the TV screen,
the images viewed by the left and right eyes may appear signifi cantly different or images may appear overlapping.
• View 3D images at the appropriate distance from the TV screen. The recommended distance is three times the effective height of the TV
screen.
Examples of recommended distances:
60-inch screen: Approx. 2.2 m
Viewing should not be done closer than the recommended distance.
• Be careful of your surroundings when viewing 3D images. When you view 3D images, objects may appear at a distance closer or farther than
the actual TV screen. This may cause you to misjudge the distance to the TV screen and possibly result in injury if you accidentally hit the
screen or surrounding objects.
• The 3D glasses are not recommended for people aged less than 6 years old.
• When children are viewing 3D images, be sure a parent or guardian is present. Monitor children viewing 3D images, and if they show signs of
discomfort, immediately discontinue use of the 3D glasses.
• People with a known history of photosensitivity and people with heart problems or poor health should not use the 3D glasses. This can worsen
existing health conditions.
• Do not use the 3D glasses for other purposes (such as general eyeglasses, sunglasses, or protective goggles).
• Do not use the 3D function or 3D glasses while walking or moving around. This may result in injuries due to running into objects, tripping, and/
or falling.
• When using the 3D glasses, take care not to accidentally strike the TV screen or other people. Viewing 3D images may cause you to misjudge
the distance to the TV screen and accidentally strike the screen, resulting in possible injury.
• It is recommended that you do not view 3D images if you are sleep deprived or if you have been drinking alcohol.
