Important Safety Information
Follow these safety instructions when setting up and using the projector:
■ Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is turned on; the bright light can damage your
eyes. Never let children look into the lens when it is on.
■ If you or any viewer experiences the following symptoms or other major discomfort from viewing
3D video images, immediately stop viewing and contact your health care provider: convulsions,
eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, altered vision, involuntary movements, disorientation,
eye strain, nausea/vomiting, dizziness, headaches, fatigue, or blurry/double vision that lasts longer
than few seconds. Do not engage in any potentially hazardous activity (such as driving a vehicle or
operating machinery) until your symptoms have completely gone away. If the symptoms persist,
discontinue use and do not resume stereoscopic 3D viewing without discussing your symptoms
with a health care provider / physician.
■ Some viewers may experience a seizure or blackout when exposed to flashing images or lights
contained in certain 3D content. Anyone who has a history of seizures, loss of awareness,
symptoms linked to an epileptic condition, or has a family history of epilepsy, should contact a
health care provider before using the 3D function. It is recommended that all viewers take regular
breaks while watching 3D video images or playing stereoscopic 3D games. The suggested breaks
are, at least 5 to 15 minutes after every 30 to 60 minutes of stereoscopic 3D content viewing.*
*Based on the guidelines issued by the 3D Consortium revised December 10, 2008. The length
and frequency of necessary breaks will vary from person to person. If you experience any
discomfort, you should immediately stop watching the 3D video images or playing stereoscopic
3D games until the discomfort ends; consult a heath care provider / physician if necessary.
■ Due to the possible impact on vision development, viewers of 3D video images should be age 6 or
older. Children and teenagers may be more susceptible to health issues associated with viewing in
3D and should be closely supervised to avoid prolonged viewing without rest.
■ Watching the screen while sitting too close for an extended period of time may cause eye strain.
Consult your projector manual to determine the ideal viewing distance.
■ Viewing 3D content may cause dizziness and disorientation for some viewers. Therefore, to avoid
injury do not place your projector or screen near open stairwells, balconies, or wires, and do not sit
near objects that could be broken if accidentally hit.
