Can I use the 3D glasses to view a 3D movie in a movie theater The 3D glasses are optimized to work with the HP ENVY17 3D computer and integrated IR emitters. The 3D glasses are not guaranteed to work optimally in any other 3D environment. Can I wear my 3D glasses over my prescription glasses Yes. The 3D glasses are designed to fit over most prescription glasses. If you normally wear glasses when viewing the computer screen, keep them on and put the 3D glasses on over your eyewear. You can use the additional replaceable nose pieces to find a comfortable fit. See Using the HP 3D Active Shutter Glasses on page 17 for more information. How do I clean my 3D glasses Use a soft, damp, lint-free cloth to clean your 3D glasses. See Caring for the 3D glasses on page 21 for more information. How close do I need to be to the computer to view 3D content The effective range of the integrated IR emitters is approximately 1.5 meters (5 feet) from the computer display. This distance varies depending on your viewing angle. Why do I see flickering when I watch 3D content Flickering in your 3D glasses can be caused by one of the following: ● Differences in the frequencies at which the lighting in your room and 3D Cinema Technology operate. Resolve this issue by dimming or turning off the lights. ● Low battery in the glasses. Try replacing the battery. Can I use the 3D glasses in bright sunlight next to a window The stereoscopic 3D effect works best in a darkened room. What type of batteries do I need for the 3D glasses The 3D glasses use a basic CR2032 battery, available anywhere batteries are sold. For more information, see Replacing the battery on page 22. Can I use my computer to watch 3D content on my external 3D TV Yes, you can watch 3D content on your external 3D TV (purchased separately), by using a highspeed HDMI 1.4 cable to connect the computer to the 3D TV. NOTE: Only Checkerboard, Row-Interleave, and HDMI 1.4 Time-sequential 3D TVs are supported. NOTE: To watch 3D content on your external 3D TV, you must use the 3D glasses that came with your TV, not the glasses that came with your computer. Frequently asked questions 25
