CAUTION
• 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 3DTV with incompatible 3D broadcasts or software can make images appear blurry 
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 signifi cantly 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.
  Examples of recommended distances
  80-inch screen: Approx. 9.8 ft (3.0 m)
  70-inch screen: Approx. 8.5 ft (2.6 m)
  60-inch screen: Approx. 7.2 ft (2.2 m)
Viewing should not be done closer than the recommended distance.
• Be careful of your surroundings when viewing 3D images. When you view 3D images, objects may appear 
closer or farther than they are. This may cause you to misjudge the distance and possibly result in injury if you 
accidentally hit the screen or surrounding objects. 
• The 3D Glasses are not recommended for people aged less than 6.
• 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.
• It is recommended that you do not view 3D images if you are sleep deprived or if you have been drinking alcohol.
Display Methods for 3D and 2D Images
Display method
Example display
Description
3D mode 
(using the 3D 
Glasses)
2D
➝ 3D
• Converts normal 2D images into 3D images.
Side by Side
• Creates 3D images from 3D images displayed side 
by side. The image is split into a left and right image, 
and then the images are stretched and displayed 
sequentially to create a 3D image.
Top and Bottom
• Creates 3D images from 3D images displayed on 
the top and bottom. The image is split into a top and 
bottom image, and then the images are stretched and 
displayed sequentially to create a 3D image.
2D mode 
(without using 
the 3D Glasses)
Side by Side 
➝ 2D
• Creates 2D images from 3D images displayed side by 
side. Only the left image is stretched and displayed. The 
image does not appear in 3D.
Top and Bottom 
➝ 2D
• Creates 2D images from 3D images displayed on the 
top and bottom. Only the top image is stretched and 
displayed. The image does not appear in 3D.
Enjoying 3D Image Viewing
You can use special 3D Glasses to watch 3D-supported images on this TV.
•  You can enjoy 3D movies on this TV by viewing the movie through SHARP 3D Glasses sold separately.
•  To produce 3D images, liquid crystal shutters in the 3D Glasses alternately open and close imperceptibly fast to exactly 
match alternating left and right video images displayed by the TV.
•  Not all consumers can experience and enjoy 3DTV. 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 motion sickness. 
Some viewers might also experience epileptic seizures. Like a roller coaster, the experience is not for everyone.
