Precautions on viewing stereoscopic 3D images
Do not view stereoscopic 3D images if you have a history of photosensitivity, heart disease or poor health. This may
cause the symptoms to worsen.
If you experience any health problems such as fatigue and discomfort while viewing stereoscopic 3D images, immediately
discontinue viewing. Continuing viewing after symptoms appear may cause health risks. Take a break until the symptoms
have completely disappeared.
Ages of 5–6 or over are recommended for viewing stereoscopic 3D images. Symptoms such as fatigue and discomfort
are difficult to determine in young children, therefore they may suddenly become ill. When viewing 3D images with
children, please watch for eye strain symptoms.
When viewing stereoscopic 3D images, take a moderate break after watching one title. Viewing for extended periods may
cause visual strain.
