•Always try do display any image on full screen, use TV set picture format menu for best possible match.
•Reduce brightness and contrast values to minimum required to achieve desired picture quality, exceeded values may speed up the burnout process.
•Frequently use all TV features designed to reduce image retention and screen burnout, refer to proper user manual section for details.
