Precautions on viewing 3D
images
When viewing 3D images continuously, be
sure to take a break periodically to prevent
eye strain.
Take regular breaks, at least 5 to 15
minutes after every 30 to 60 minutes of 3D
viewing.
* Based on the guidelines issued by the 3D
Consortium revised December 10, 2008.
View 3D images at the appropriate
distance from the screen. The
recommended distance is three times the
effective height of the picture.
Examples of recommended distances
100-inch 16:9 picture: Approx. 12.3 ft (3.8 m)
Viewing should not be done closer than the
recommended distance.
Refer to page 21 for details on the diagonal
size and height of the picture.
Maintain an appropriate distance from the
screen. Viewing from too close a distance
can strain your eyes. If you experience eye
strain, immediately discontinue viewing.
If you experience any of the following
symptoms during viewing:
– nausea
– queasiness/dizziness
– headache
– blurry vision or double vision that lasts
longer than few seconds
Do not engage in any potentially hazardous
activity (for example, driving a vehicle) until
your symptoms have completely gone
away.
If symptoms persist, discontinue use and
do not resume 3D viewing without
discussing your symptoms with a
physician.
Be careful of your surroundings when
viewing 3D images. When you view 3D
images, objects may appear at a distance
closer or farther than the actual screen.
This may cause you to misjudge the
distance to the screen and possibly result
in injury if you accidentally hit the screen or
surrounding objects.

As you get more comfortable viewing 3D
images:
Operate the “3D Depth Adjust” function to
adjust the 3D effect. (See page 70.)
Adjust the projected image to the most
comfortable viewing size by zooming.
(Projecting images on the smallest or
largest screen size possible may eliminate
the 3D effect and strain your eyes.)
Use the Invert function to properly set the
video for your left and right eyes. (For
details on using “Invert”, see page 70.)
A picture simultaneously projected from
more than two projectors may not appear
3D.
Info
The projected image may become dark when
using the 3D projection function (with “3D” set to
“On”).
When “3D” is set to “On”, the following functions
may not work fully or may not be available at all.
– GEOMETRIC ADJUSTMENT/H&V KEYSTONE/
SPHERE
– V-Image Shift
– CBNR
If the power of your left and right eyes greatly
differs and you primarily use one eye for viewing
the images, the images will not appear in 3D. In
addition, images may be diffi cult to view in 3D or
images may not be able to be viewed in 3D
depending on the individual or the content being
displayed. The 3D effect varies with the individual.
