Image persistence

• Please be aware that LCD Technology may experience a phenomenon known as Image

 

 

Persistence. Image persistence occurs when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image

 

 

remains visible on the screen. Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not perma-

 

 

nent, but constant images being displayed for a long period of time should be avoided. To alleviate

 

 

image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as the previous image was displayed. For

 

 

example, if an image was on the monitor for one hour and a residual image remains, the monitor

 

 

should be turned off for one hour to erase the image. NOTE: As with all personal display devices,

 

 

LaCIe recommends displaying moving imagesand using a moving screen saver at regular intervals

 

 

whenever the screen is idle or turning off the monitor when not in use.
