3D glasses are level with the screen.

channels cannot be preset with the Auto.
• If you have prescription eye glasses or contact
lenses, wear the 3D glasses over them.
Watching 3D images without appropriate
eyewear may cause eye strain.
• If 3D images often appear in double or if you
cannot see the images in 3D, stop viewing.
Continuous viewing may cause eye strain.

to avoid prolonged viewing without rest.
• Watching TV while sitting too close to the
screen for an extended period of time may
cause eye strain.
The ideal viewing distance should be at least
three times the screen height.
