Switch off your TV overnight via the POWER ON/OFF button instead of leaving it on standby. You save energy and at the same time demagnetise the picture tube. A demagnetised picture tube supports good picture quality. When the set is switched on, do not shift, move or turn (e.g. on a swivel base) the set around because an uneveness in colour in some parts of the screen may occur.This can be eliminated by switching off the set by the mains power button . Wait for 20 minutes before switching on again. If symptom still exists, call service.
