Warning: Do not leave stationary, toolbar, or partial images on-screen for extended periods of time. Mix the types of pictures shown. Uneven picture tube aging is NOT covered by your warranty.

The VGA capability of this television is designed for occasional use ONLY.

It is not meant to be used as a work station or to view static or odd-shaped images for an extended period of time. Any device connected to your television via the VGA port, including, but not limited to, personal computer, game system, or digital set-top box, must have its screen saver function activated to prevent damage to the televi- sion. We DO NOT recommend the use of any external device that does not have a screen saver function with this television.

We recommend that screen saver acti- vation time be set to less than ve minutes and that when using a device through the VGA port, you use lower brightness and contrast settings. If your computer programs allow, tool- bars should be set to hidden mode.

Please remember that most computer pro- grams and video game systems display static images, such as boxes, buttons, tool bars, and games scores that can damage the television if used for extended periods of time, repeatedly, or frequently. The VGA Input will automatically select the “Stan- dard” screen format and ll the scr een.

No other formats are available with the VGA Input. Standard television overscan is used, so VGA images will be cropped on all sides. Resizing of some displays may be required. Consult your owner’s manual for computers, computer programs and game systems for assistance with resizing display images. Please see page 58 for an explaination of uneven picture aging.
