Warning concerning stationary images on the TV screen
A characteristic of Plasma Display Panels is that displaying the same image for a long time can
cause a permanent after-image to remain on the screen.This is called phosphor burn in.
Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures that contain constantly moving and
changing images that fill the screen.
Examples of stationary images (this is not an all-inclusive list, you may encounter others in your
viewing):
• TV and DVD menus
• : when black bars appear at the left and right side of the screen, it is recommended
Black bars
to change to a picture format so that the picture fills the entire screen;
•
PIP and Multipip
function;
• TV channel logo
graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging of the screen;
•
Stock market stickers
•
Shopping channel logos and pricing displays
the same location on the TV screen.
Examples of still pictures also include logos, computer images, time display, teletext and images
displayed in 4:3 mode, static images or characters, etc.
Notes:
- reduce contrast and brightness when viewing
- once burn-in occurs it will never disappear completely.
