23.Recommendations to avoid or minimize phosphor burn-in: Like all phosphor-based display devices and all other gas plasma displays, plasma monitors can be susceptible to phosphor burn-in under certain circumstances. Certain operating conditions, such as the continuous display of a static image over a prolonged period of time, can result in phosphor burn if proper precautions are not taken. To protect your investment in this plasma monitor, please adhere to the following guidelines and recommendations to minimize the occurrence of image burn:

• Always enable and use your computer’s screen saver function during use with a computer input source.

• Display moving images whenever possible.

• Change the position of the menu display from time to time.

• Always turn off the monitor when you are finished using it.

24.If the plasma monitor is in long-term use or continuous operation, take the following measures to reduce the likelihood of phosphor burn:

Lower the brightness and contrast levels as much as possible without impairing image readability.

• Display an image with maximum number of colors and color gradations (for instant color photographs).

• Create image content with minimal contrast between light and dark areas, for example white characters on black backgrounds. Use complementary or pastel colors whenever possible.

• Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct, sharply defined borders between colors. NOTE: Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.
