Screen Burn-in

A characteristic of Plasma Display Panels (PDPs) is that displaying the same image for a long time causes a part of the image to stay on the screen (this is called phosphor burn-in).

Avoid burn-in as follows.

IMAGE SHIFT

The picture displayed on the screen is shifted up, down and to the left and right at regular intervals. In order to prevent burn-in, set this function to FAST or STD. (Refer to page 42.) Even if the IMAGE SHIFT function is turned off, the picture will shift to the left or right when the channel or input is changed. This is only when the ASPECT function is in REGULAR mode.

VIDEO STATUS

The VIDEO STATUS function is initially set to DYNAMIC. Unless the TV is being watched in an extremely bright room, it is recommended to change the VIDEO STATUS setting to standard, theater or game. Doing so will reduce the chance of PDP burn-in and extend the life of the PDP. (Refer to page 61).

❑Do not display static images or characters for long periods of time.

For example...

TV on

XYZ

TV off

XYZ

•Reduce PICTURE and BRIGHT on the PICTURE ADJUST menu (page 50) when viewing.

❑ Do not view for long periods of time in the REGULAR mode (page 63).

Screen size is normally chosen to ensure that the picture is displayed on the entire screen. After viewing in the REGULAR mode in which black bands may occur at the left and right of the screen, it is recommended to change to the PANORAMA mode to display the picture on the entire screen.

TV on

TV off

For example...

❑Do not view for long periods of time using the TWIN function (page 57) or INDEX function (page 57).
