Thank you for your purchase of the 3D Glasses for Sharp 3D AQUOS. To ensure safety and many years of trouble-free operation of your product, please read the Important Safety Instructions carefully before using this product.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

3D Glasses

Prevention of accidental ingestion

• Keep the batteries and band accessory out of the reach of small children. Small children can accidentally swallow these parts.
• If a child accidentally swallows any of these parts, seek immediate medical attention.

Do not disassemble

• Do not disassemble or modify the 3D Glasses.

Caution for lithium battery

• Batteries must not be exposed to excessive heat such as direct sunlight or fire.
• Replace only with the same or equivalent type of battery. The battery may explode if improperly replaced.
• Take care not to reverse the battery poles (+ and -) when loading the battery. Follow the correct procedure when loading the battery. Loading the battery incorrectly may damage the battery or cause it to leak battery fluid, which could result in a fire, injury or damage.

Handling the 3D Glasses

• Do not drop, exert pressure on, or step on the 3D Glasses. Doing so may damage the glass section, which may result in injury.

• Be careful not to trap your finger in the hinge section of the 3D Glasses. Doing so may result in injury.

• Pay special attention when children are using this product.

Using the 3D Glasses

• Parents/guardians should monitor children's viewing habits to avoid their prolonged use without rest periods.
• Use the 3D Glasses only for the specified purpose.
• Do not move around while wearing the 3D Glasses. The surrounding area appears dark, which may result in falling or other accidents that may cause injury.

Caring for the 3D Glasses

• Use only the cloth provided with the 3D Glasses to clean the lenses. Remove dust and soil from the cloth. Any dust or other soiling on the cloth may result in scratches on the product. Do not use solvents such as benzene or thinners as doing so may cause the coating to peel off.
• When cleaning the 3D Glasses, take care not to allow water or other fluids to come into contact with the glasses.
  Always store the 3D Glasses in the case provided when not in use.
• When storing the 3D Glasses, avoid very humid or hot locations.

Viewing 3D images

If you experience dizziness, nausea, or other discomfort while viewing 3D images, discontinue use and rest your eyes.
- Do not use the 3D Glasses if they are cracked or broken.

CAUTION

• Not all consumers can experience and enjoy 3D TV. Some people suffer from stereo blindness which prevents them from perceiving the intended depth of 3D entertainment. Also, some people who watch 3D programming may experience initial feelings of motion sickness as they adjust to the picture. Others may experience headaches, eye fatigue or continued motion sickness. Like a roller coaster, the experience is not for everyone.
• The 3D Glasses are precision equipment. Handle them with care.
• Improper use of the 3D Glasses or failure to follow these instructions can result in eye strain.
• If you experience dizziness, nausea, or other discomfort while viewing 3D images, immediately discontinue use of the 3D Glasses. Using the binocular disparity 3D system of the TV with incompatible 3D broadcasts or software can make images appear with a cross talk blur or create overlapping images.
• When viewing 3D images continuously, be sure to take a break periodically to prevent eye strain.
• If you are nearsighted or farsighted or have astigmatism or a different level of eyesight between the left and right eyes, you should take the necessary steps, such as wearing eyeglasses, to correct your eyesight before viewing 3D images. The 3D Glasses can be worn over eyeglasses.
• When viewing 3D images, keep the 3D Glasses horizontally level with the TV screen. If you tilt the 3D Glasses with respect to the TV screen, the images viewed by the left and right eyes may appear significantly different or images may appear overlapping.
  View 3D images at the appropriate distance from the TV screen. The recommended distance is three times the effective height of the TV screen.
• 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 TV screen. This may cause you to misjudge the distance to the TV screen and possibly result in injury if you accidentally hit the screen or surrounding objects.
• The 3D Glasses are only recommended for people ages 5 and older.
• When children are viewing 3D images, be sure a parent or guardian is present. Monitor children viewing 3D images, and if they show signs of discomfort, immediately discontinue use of the 3D Glasses.
• People with a known history of photosensitivity and people with heart problems or poor health should not use the 3D Glasses. This can worsen existing health conditions.
• Do not use the 3D Glasses for other purposes (such as general eyeglasses, sunglasses, or protective goggles).
• Do not use the 3D function or 3D Glasses while walking or moving around. This may result in injuries due to running into objects, tripping, and/or falling.
• When using the 3D Glasses, take care not to accidentally strike the TV screen or other people. Viewing 3D images may cause you to misjudge the distance to the TV screen and accidentally strike the screen, resulting in possible injury.

NOTE

• These 3D Glasses are only for use with Sharp LCD TVs supporting 3D.

3D Glasses lenses

• Do not apply pressure to the lenses of the 3D Glasses. Also, do not drop or bend the 3D Glasses.
• Do not scratch the surface of the lenses of the 3D Glasses with a pointed instrument or other object. Doing so may damage the 3D Glasses and reduce the quality of the 3D image.
• Use only the cloth provided with the 3D Glasses to clean the lenses.

3D Glasses infrared receiver

• Do not allow the infrared receiver to become dirty, and do not attach stickers to or otherwise cover the infrared receiver. Doing so may prevent the receiver from operating normally.
• If the 3D Glasses are affected by other infrared data communication equipment, the 3D images may not be displayed correctly.

Caution during viewing

• Do not use devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves (such as cellular phones or wireless transceivers) near the 3D Glasses. Doing so may cause the 3D Glasses to malfunction.
• The 3D Glasses cannot operate fully at extreme high or low temperatures. Please use them within the specified usage temperature range.
• If the 3D Glasses are used in a room with fluorescent lighting (50/60 Hz), the light within the room may appear to flicker. In this case, either darken or turn off the fluorescent lights when using the 3D Glasses.
• Wear the 3D Glasses correctly. 3D images will not be correctly visible if the 3D Glasses are worn upside down or back-to-front.
• Other displays (such as computer screens, digital clocks, and calculators) may appear dark and difficult to view while wearing the 3D Glasses. Do not wear the 3D Glasses when watching anything other than 3D images.
  If you lie on your side while watching the TV with 3D Glasses, the picture may look dark or may not be visible.
• Be sure to stay within the viewing angle and optimum TV viewing distance when watching 3D images. Otherwise, you may not be able to enjoy the full 3D effect.
• The 3D Glasses may not work properly if there is any other 3D product or electronic devices turned on near the glasses or TV. If this occurs, turn off the other 3D product or electronic devices or keep the devices as far away as possible from the 3D Glasses.
• Stop using this product in any of the following situations:
• When images consistently appear doubled while you are wearing the 3D Glasses
• When you have difficulty perceiving the 3D effect
• If the 3D Glasses are faulty or damaged, stop using them immediately. Continued use of the 3D Glasses may cause eye fatigue, headaches and illness.
• If you have any abnormal skin reaction, stop using the 3D Glasses. In very rare instances, such reactions may be due to an allergic reaction to the coating or materials used.
• If your nose or temples become red or you experience any pain or itchiness, stop using the 3D Glasses. Pressure caused by long periods of use may lead to such reactions and may result in skin irritation.
