The motion seats of the 4DX system are programmed to move according to a predetermined sequence during movie screening. As a result, motion seats can cause the following problems:
- your personal effects (e.g. popcorn, beverages etc.) may be dropped or spilt
- whilst already being seated, your body and/or clothing may become caught between the seats.
In the case of sensitive viewers:
- dizziness
- headache and/or muscle aches during movie screening
- in extreme cases, epileptic symptoms.
Environmental Effects:
A number of special effects are used during the screening of 4DX movies: wind, scent, foam, liquid, movement, mist, bubbles sound effects etc.
Please, bear in mind that
- concerning the wind machines, malfunctioning may occur as a result of objects (such as audience member’s personal effects) coming into contact with the machine.
- concerning the bubble-making devices, contact with your clothing, personal effect and/or leather, silk products may cause injury, damage or stains.
- water emitted may cause the following: dampen your clothing; for female patrons, spoil makeup and slight odors. Additionally, such water emissions may get onto the 3D glasses. However, the water used in the course of special effects screenings is not likely to cause significant physical harm.

In case such items are separated from you due to wind effects, please, do not try to recover them during the screening.
