About the Glasstron

Caution: The screen is always right in front of you.
The Glasstron is a head-mounted display. With this type of display, the screen is always in front
of you even if you move your head. Because of this feature, you can concentrate on the screen
more easily compared with ordinary TVs and you have a sense of being in the action.
• It is easy to adjust the Glasstron to your eyes. You can use the display unit even while
wearing glasses.
• Every time you use the Glasstron, the adjustment screen appears to help you adjust the
display unit properly. You can also check whether the left and right screen positions are
properly aligned or not.
• Cautions appear on the screen about every two hours to remind you to check for eye fatigue.
The power will automatically turn off if you do not press the SEL/PUSH EXEC jog dial. If
you keep using the Glasstron continuously for six hours, a warning appears on the screen and
the power will turn off automatically.
