As is the case for any phosphorus-based screen
(cathode-ray or other tube), the screen brightness of
your monitor will gradually fade with the passing of
time.
Like any monitor with a phosphorus- or plasma gas-
based screen, your monitor risks screen burn in
under certain circumstances. The lengthy display of
a fixed picture provoke screen burn in.
To protect your monitor, we recommend the following measures:
•As often as possible, display moving pictures.
•Switch your monitor to standby mode if you do not need to display pictures.
For your presentations, when displaying tables, graphics...
•Decrease the contrast and brightness of the picture as much as possible.
•Display pictures presenting numerous colours and gradations of colours (photographs).
•Adjust contrast to obtain the least noticeable transition between dark and light areas (White characters on a black back-
ground).
•Avoid displaying pictures presenting few colours or neat and clear outlines between colours.
Contact registered or affiliated THOMSON dealer for other precautions to be taken to accommodate specific uses as well as
possible.
Screen burn in is not covered by the warranty.
Your monitor complies with Class B requirements. If you experience radio or HF interference under operation con-
tact your THOMSON dealer.
