18. IMPORTANT HEALTH AND SAFETY INFORMATION FOR 3D
TELEVISIONS
Read the following information before viewing 3D television images.
CAUTION NOTICE:
1. Ambient fluorescent lighting may cause a flickering effect and direct sunlight may adversely affect the
operation of your 3D glasses.
2. DO NOT place your television near open stairwells, balconies or other objects as viewing in 3D images
may cause disorientation for some viewers resulting in falls, tripping or walking into objects.
3. If you experience (1) altered vision; (2) lightheadedness; (3) dizziness; (4) involuntary movements such as
eye or muscle twitching; (5) confusion; (6) nausea; (7) loss of awareness; (8) convulsions; (9) cramps; and/
or (10) disorientation, immediately stop watching 3D images and consult your doctor.
4. Parents should regularly monitor their children concerning the above symptoms as children and
teenagers may be more likely to experience these symptoms more frequently than adults. Watching
3D television is not recommended for children under the age of 6 as their visual system is not yet fully
developed.
5. Prolonged viewing of 3D images might cause discomfort, dizziness, eye strain, headaches or
disorientation.
WARNING NOTICE:
1. Some viewers may experience an epileptic seizure or stroke when exposed to certain flashing images or
lights contained in certain television pictures or video games. If you or any of your family has a history of
epilepsy or stroke, please consult your doctor before viewing 3D images.
2. DO NOT watch 3D television if you are pregnant, elderly, sleep-deprived, suffering from serious medical
conditions, in poor physical condition or under the influence of alcohol.
3. Sitting too close to the screen for an extended period of time may damage your eyesight. The ideal
distance should be at least three times the height of the TV screen and at the viewer's eyes level.
4. Wearing the 3D glasses for any reason other than viewing 3D television (as general spectacles,
sunglasses, protective goggles, etc.) may physically harm you or weaken your eyesight.
5. If you experience any discomfort while viewing 3D images, stop and do not immediately engage in
any potentially hazardous activity such as driving a car until your symptoms have disappeared. If your
symptoms persist, do not resume watching 3D images without consulting your doctor.
