Switch on
To watch a 3D picture on TV, press On on the 3D glasses and
put them on. The glasses need some seconds to adjust to the
3D signal from the 3D transmitter on the TV. At first use, this
may take up to 15 seconds.
Make sure the receiver lens in the centre of the glasses can
receive the 3D signals. Also, clear objects away from the 3D
transmitter on the TV.
Switch off
When the 3D glasses do not receive 3D signals for 2 minutes,
the glasses switch off automatically.
