Precautions
Warning
On safety
• Do not put the 3D Glasses in a fire.
• Do not disassemble the 3D Glasses.
• Do not use, charge, store, or leave the 3D

temperature, e.g., in direct sunlight, or in
sun-heated cars.
• Use only the supplied USB cable.
• Do not charge the 3D Glasses with
anything other than the supplied USB
charging AC power adaptor.
• Check that the operating voltage of your

• Should any liquid or solid object fall into
the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it
checked by qualified personnel before
operating it further.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is
not to be used for several days.
• To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the
plug. Never pull the cord itself.
• The wall outlet should be near the unit and
easily accessible.
• The unit is not disconnected to the AC
power source (mains) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the
unit itself has been turned off.
• Do not allow water or foreign material to
enter the 3D Glasses.
Safety precautions
• Use only the type of 3D glasses included
with the projector. You should only use
the 3D glasses for watching 3D video
images. Do not use the 3D Glasses with
other equipment, such as TV.
• If you observe flickering or flashing, turn
off the lighting in the room.
• Not for use by children without proper
adult supervision.
• Be careful not to pinch your fingers in

• The 3D SYNC connector is dedicated for the optional 3D Sync Transmitter. Do not connect
computers or other network devices, to avoid malfunction.
• You can use a 3D Sync Transmitter separate from this unit, using an optional LAN cable (straight-
type).
If the usage environment has interference of a continuous specific frequency, synchronization of
3D image signals and the 3D glasses may be lost. In this case, use a LAN cable labeled Category 7.
When watching 3D images in an environment that has even more interference, use the internal
transmitter.
• Be sure to use cable of up to 15 m, and do not use an extension cord. Also, keep the LAN cable
away from any AC power cords as much as possible.
• Only one 3D Sync Transmitter should be connected to the unit. Connecting multiple 3D Sync
Transmitters may cause a malfunction.
