∫About 3D viewing
Anyone who is hypersensitive to light, suffers from heart disease or is otherwise

Nearsighted or farsighted persons, those with differences in the sight of their right 
and left eyes, and those with astigmatism are advised to correct their vision by 
wearing glasses etc.
Stop viewing if you can clearly see a double image while viewing 3D pictures.
•
There are differences in the way that different  people experience 3D pictures. Please correct 
your sight appropriately before viewing 3D pictures.
•You can change the 3D setting of your television or 3D output setting of the unit to 2D.
When viewing 3D pictures on a 3D compatible television, position yourself a 
distance away that is least 3 times the effective height of the television.
