Using Precautions
Cautions During Viewing
Wear the 3D Eyewear correctly. 3D images will not be correctly visible if the 3D Eyewear is worn
upside down or back-to-front.
Other kinds of displays (such as computer screens, digital clocks, or calculators etc.) may be difficult
to see while wearing the 3D Eyewear.
Do not wear the 3D Eyewear when watching anything other than 3D images.
For comfortable viewing
View from at least the recommended distance (3 times the effective height of the screen),
Recommended Distance:
For a 55-inch television, 6.89 ft (2.1 m) or more.
For a 60-inch television, 7.55 ft (2.3 m) or more.
When the top and bottom area of the screen are blackened, such as when playing movies, view the
screen at a distance 3 times further than the height of the actual image. (That makes the viewing
distance closer than above recommended distance.)
Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if your skin feels unusual.
In rare cases, the paint or materials used in the 3D Eyewear may cause an allergic reaction.
Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if you experience any redness, pain, or itching on the nose
or temples.
Prolonged use may cause such symptoms due to excess pressure, which may result in the user
feeling unwell.
Viewing 3D images
Using the television menu controls, set so that 3D images are shown.

You can watch 3D images in the following cases:

• When a 3D image supporting Blu-ray Disc is played on a 3D image supporting player/recorder
connected using a HDMI cable to a 3D image supporting television.
• 3D image supported broadcast (program)
• 3D Photo, 3D Movie taken by LUMIX/Camcorder.
Put on the 3D Eyewear
View
When the HDMI receives information in which 3D mode is detected, 3D images are automatically displayed
according to the signal.
If the 3D images are not displayed correctly or the images cause discomfort, the images can be
adjusted by “3D format select” or “3D settings”.
Please refer to eHelp (p. 20) for more details.
