  • Page 53: 3D Imaging

    3D IMAGING 3D IMAGING 3D Technology This TV can display in 3D via 3D broadcasting or when the TV is connected to a compatible device, such as a Blu-ray 3D Player. The viewer must wear compatible 3D glasses in order to see these images in 3D format. NOTE After powering on the TV, a few seconds may be needed for your TV to calibrate. When watching digital TV in 3D imaging mode, TV out signals cannot be output through the SCART cable. If you set the 3D mode to On while a scheduled recording is performed on digital TV, TV out signals cannot be output through the SCART cable, and the recording cannot be performed. If 3D TV broadcast standard changes in the future and it is not supported by this TV set, you may need a separate device, such as a set-top box. Precautions to take when viewing 3D images WARNING If you view 3D images from too close a distance, your eyesight may deteriorate. If you view images in 3D for a long period of time, you may feel dizzy or experience blurred vision. If you are pregnant, elderly, have heart problems, experience severe nausea or if you are under the influence of alcohol, we recommend that you do not view 3D images. This is because the 3D images can cause disorientation and confusion. Put fragile or breakable objects away when viewing 3D images. Such objects may break, or cause personal injuries when you are startled by the realistic 3D images. Parents should prevent children who are 5 years or younger from watching 3D images because viewing 3D images can be harmful to vision development. Warning about photosensitivity seizures Some users may have a seizure or other abnormal reactions when they are exposed to a flashing light or a particular pattern in a video game or film. If anyone in your family has a history of epilepsy or has ever experienced any kind of seizure, please consult your doctor before viewing 3D images. If you exhibit any of the symptoms listed below when viewing 3D images, stop viewing immediately and have a break. »...

  • Page 54: When Using 3D Glasses

    3D IMAGING CAUTION Parents/guardians should TV children’s viewing of 3D images because they may not be used to the 3D viewing experience and lack knowledge on how to handle potential risks. When using 3D Glasses CAUTION Do not use the 3D glasses to replace your corrective glasses, sunglasses or protective goggles. Do not store the 3D glasses in hot or cold locations. Do not drop objects onto the 3D glasses. Do not drop or bend the glasses. Since the lenses of the 3D glasses are easily scratched, make sure to clean only with a soft cloth. Shake off any dust before using the cloth Do not scratch the surface of the lens(Polarized film) of 3D glasses with a sharp tool or wipe the lens with chemicals. The lens of the 3D glasses is different from those of general glasses, and is very thin. Therefore be careful with the glasses as the lens can be popped out easily. Be careful of the edges of the glass frame when putting on the 3D glasses.

    TROUBLESHOOTING WHEN USING 3D MODE TROUBLESHOOTING WHEN USING 3D MODE I can see a swirling oil-like pattern on the TV when the TV is turned off. This is caused by the interference of external light in the air layer between the LCD surface and 3D filter. The pattern becomes almost invisible when you turn on the power again. I cannot see 3D image properly Problem Resolution If you are not using the glasses When you view 3D images with this TV, it is very important that you use the provided with the TV. glasses provided with the TV. The glasses are designed to compensate optically for the 3D filter attached to the surface of the TV. If you wear third-party glasses, you may not see 3D images properly on the TV.

  • Page 85 SPECIFICATIONS NOTE Avoid keeping a fixed image on the set’s screen for prolonged periods of time. The fixed image may become permanently imprinted on the screen. Use a screen saver when possible. There may be interference relating to resolution, vertical pattern, contrast or brightness in PC mode. Change the PC mode to another resolution or change the refresh rate to another rate or adjust the brightness and contrast on the menu until the picture is clear. If the refresh rate of the PC graphic card can not be changed, change the PC graphic card or consult the manufacturer of the PC graphic card. The synchronization input waveform for Horizontal and Vertical frequencies are separate. Connect the signal cable from the TV output port of the PC to the RGB (PC) port of the TV or the signal cable from the HDMI output port of the PC to the HDMI/DVI IN port on the TV. Connect the audio cable from the PC to the Audio input on the TV. (Audio cables are not included with the TV). If using a sound card, adjust PC sound as required. If the graphic card on the PC does not output analogue and digital RGB simultaneously, connect only one of either RGB or HDMI/DVI IN to display the PC output on the TV. If the graphic card on the PC does output analogue and digital RGB simultaneously, TV the TV to either RGB or HDMI. (The other mode is set to Plug and Play automatically by the TV.) DOS mode may not work depending on the video card if you use an HDMI to DVI cable. If you use too long an RGB-PC cable that is too long, there may be interference on the screen. We recommend using under 5 m of cable. This provides the best picture quality.
