HP ENVY17 3D Getting Started - Windows 7

Using the HP 3D Active Shutter Glasses
Your 3D experience begins with active 3D content and the 3D glasses. The 3D glasses are battery
powered and linked wirelessly to the infrared (IR) emitters in your 3D computer.
WARNING! Before using the 3D glasses, read the 3D safety information.
NOTE: For optimal 3D viewing, you should be no more than approximately 1.5 meters (5 feet) from
the computer display. Depending on the viewing angle, the operational distance from the display can
vary. Keep the areas immediately around the IR emitters free from obstructions. For information on
the location of the IR emitters, refer to
Getting to know your computer on page 23.

When 3D content begins to play, the glasses detect an IR signal from the computer and turn on
automatically.
