3D IMAGING
This TV can display in 3D via 3D broadcasting or when the TV is connected to a compatible device, such
as a Blu-ray 3D Player. You need such a device to watch the TV in 3D. The 3D TV displays two separate
pictures formatted for each eye. The viewer needs to wear 3D glasses in order to see these images in
3D format.
3D TECHNOLOGY
Viewing 3D Imaging
WARNING
►When viewing 3D images, it is important to watch the
TV from an effective viewing angle and within the ap-
propriate distance. The appropriate angle is 120°(when
the viewing distance is 2m (6.5 ft)) and distance is 2m
– 7m (6.5ft – 22.9ft). If you exceed this viewing angle
or distance, you may not be able to view the 3D imag-
ing. Further 3D images may not be displayed if they are
viewed whilst you are lying down.
►If you watch the 3D images too closely or for a long pe-
riod of time, it may harm your eyesight. If you feel any
sort of eyestrain stop viewing the 3D images remove the
3D glasses and rest.
►Watching the TV or playing video games that incorporate
3D images with the 3D glasses for a long period of time
can cause drowsiness, headaches or fatigue to you and/
or your eyes. If you experience any of these symptoms
stop viewing the 3D TV remove the 3D glasses and rest.
►Pregnant woman, seniors, persons with heart problems
or persons who experience frequent drowsiness should
refrain from watching 3D TV.
►Do not use the 3D imaging or 3D glasses whilst walking
or moving around. Using the 3D imaging and glasses
while moving around may result in injuries due to run-
ning into objects, tripping and/or falling.
►
Some 3D imaging may cause you to duck or dodge the
image displayed in the video. Therefore, it is best if you do
not watch 3D TV near fragile objects or near any objects
that can be knocked over easily.
► Please prevent children under the age of 5 from watch-
ing 3D TV. It may affect their vision development.
►Warning for photosensitization seizure:
Some viewers may experience a seizure or epilepsy
when exposed to certain factors, including ashing lights
or image as in TV or video games. If you or anybody
from your family has a history of epilepsy or seizure,
please consult with your doctor before watching 3D TV.
If you experience any dizziness or light headedness,
visual transition or altered vision, visual or facial instabil-
ity, such as eye or muscle twitching, unconscious action,
convulsion, loss of conscience, confusion or disorienta-
tion, loss of directional sense, cramps, or nausea im-
mediately stop watching the 3D imaging and consult a
doctor. Parents should monitor their children, including
teenagers, for these symptoms as they may be more
sensitive to the effects of watching 3D TV.
Risk of photosensitization seizure can be reduced with
the following actions.
- Take frequent breaks from watching 3D TV.
- For those who have vision that is different in each eye,
they should watch the TV after taking vision correction
measures.
- Watch the TV so that your eyes are on the same level
as the 3D screen and refrain from sitting too closely to
the TV
- Do not watch the 3D imaging when tired or sick, and
avoid watching the 3D imaging for a long period of
time.
- Do not wear the 3D glasses for any other purpose than
viewing 3D imaging on a 3D TV.
- Some viewers may feel disoriented after watching 3D
TV. Therefore, after you watch 3D TV, take a moment
to regain awareness of your situation before moving.
►To watch the TV in 3D, you must put on your 3D glasses.
For best results, you should wear LG Brand 3D glasses.
The 3D imaging may not display properly when using
another brand of 3D glasses. Please see the 3D glasses
manual for instructions on how to use the 3D glasses.
►After powering on the TV, a few seconds may be needed
for your TV to calibrate.
► It may take a moment for you to see the 3D imaging if
you look away from the TV and then revert your eyes
back to the 3D program.
►The TV may icker slightly if the 3D imaging is displayed
under 3 wavelength lamp uorescent light (50 Hz - 60
Hz) or magnetic uorescent lamp (50 Hz - 60 Hz). In
such instances, it is recommended to turn the lights off.
►If there is an obstacle between the TV and the 3D glass-
es, the 3D imaging may not display properly.
►Do not use the TV in close proximity to other electronic
equipment and IR equipment.
►In Analog TV, 3D Imaging does not work.
►When watching 2D images, it is recommended to
take off the 3D glasses. If you watch 2D images with
the 3D glasses on, you may see distorted images.
► When watching digital TV in 3D imaging mode, moni-
tor out signals cannot be output through the SCART
cable.
If you set the 3D mode to On while a scheduled re-
cording is performed on digital TV, monitor out signals
cannot be output through the SCART cable, and the
recording cannot be performed.
