Image

•An "image ghosting", or "screen burn" may appear on the screen if the television is left operating with, either a still image, constant 4:3 video pictures in the Normal Display Mode or a programme displaying a bright corner channel logo, for an extended period of time.

The risk of this is higher if the set is in "Live" mode or has a high contrast setting. This image cannot be removed once burnt onto the screen. To avoid the risk of occurrence do not leave the television operating on such a picture, or programme for a long time, use the picture orbiting function or lower the contrast setting. Repeated extended daily usage of the same image, or programme can also result in this occurrence. IMAGE RETENTION IS NOT COVERED BY THE SONY WARRANTY.
