To prevent image burn-in, which is a permanent disfigurement on the screen and is not covered by the warranty, follow these guidelines for your LG 55LM6210 TV:

• Avoid displaying a fixed image on the TV screen for a long period of time (2 or more hours for LCD TVs).

• If the aspect ratio of the TV is set to 4:3 for a long period of time, image burn may occur on the letterboxed area of the screen.

Viewing Environment:

• Viewing Time: When watching 3D content, take a 5 to 15-minute break every hour. Viewing for a long period may cause headache, dizziness, fatigue, or eye strain.

• Viewing Distance: Maintain a distance of at least twice the screen diagonal length when watching 3D content. If you feel discomfort, move further away from the TV.

Viewing Age:

• Infants / Children: Viewing 3D content for children under the age of 5 is prohibited. Children under 10 may overreact and require special monitoring.

• Teenagers: Teenagers under 19 may be stimulated by light from 3D videos. Advise them not to watch 3D videos for a long time when they are tired.

• Elderly: The elderly may perceive less of a 3D effect. Do not sit closer than the recommended distance.

Health Precautions:

• Some users may experience a seizure or other abnormal symptoms when exposed to flashing lights or patterns from 3D content.

• Do not watch 3D videos if you feel nausea, are pregnant, or have a chronic illness such as epilepsy, cardiac disorder, or blood pressure disease.

• 3D content is not recommended for those who suffer from stereo blindness or stereo anomaly.

• If you have strabismus (cross-eyed), amblyopia (weak eyesight), or astigmatism, you may feel fatigue easily. It is advised to take frequent breaks.

Symptoms Requiring Discontinuation:

• Do not watch 3D content when you feel fatigued from lack of sleep, overwork, or drinking.

• If you experience symptoms like headache, eyeball pain, dizziness, nausea, palpitation, blurriness, discomfort, double image, or visual inconvenience, stop watching 3D content and rest until the symptoms subside. Consult a doctor if symptoms persist.

Cautions When Using 3D Glasses:

• Make sure to use LG 3D glasses.

• Do not use 3D glasses in place of normal glasses, sunglasses, or protective goggles.

• Do not store your 3D glasses in extremely high or low temperatures, as this can cause deformation.

• The 3D glasses are fragile. Always use a soft, clean cloth to wipe the lenses. Do not scratch them with sharp objects or use chemicals.
