Important Information Regarding Use of Video Games, Computers, Captions or Other Fixed Image Displays

The extended use of ﬁxed image program material can cause a permanent “shadow image” on the LCD panel.

This background image is viewable on normal programs in the form of a stationary ﬁxed image. This type of irreversible LCD/LED panel deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:

1.Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum viewing level.

2.Do not display the ﬁxed image for extended periods of time.

3.Turn the power off when not in actual use.

Examples of images that you need to watch out for are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):

•TV Channel Logos: e.g. Shopping channel logos and pricing displays-especially if they are

bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause ageing of the screen.

•Time Displays

•Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for long period of time

•TV/DVD Menus: e.g. Listings of DVD disk content

•Pause Mode: Do not leave the TV in pause mode for long periods of time, e.g. When watching DVDs or videos.

Important - Once ‘shadow image/screen burn’ occurs, it will never disappear and is not repairable under warranty.
