Precautions to Protect the Screen
from Damage
Image retention
OLED TV's are susceptible to image
retention (burn-in) due to the
characteristics of the materials used. Image
retention may occur if images are displayed
in the same location on the screen
repeatedly or over extended periods of
time. This is not a malfunction of the TV.
Avoid displaying images that may cause
image retention.
The following are examples of
images that may cause image
retention:
☐ Content with black bars either on the top
and bottom and/or the left and right
sides of the screen. (for example,
Letterboxed, 4:3 screen, Standard
definition)
☐ Static images such as photos.
☐ On-screen menus, program guides,
channel logos etc.
☐ Static content from applications.
☐ On-screen tickers, such as those used for
news and headlines.
To reduce the risk of image
retention:
☐ Sony recommends that you turn off the
TV normally by pressing the power
button on the remote control or the TV.
☐ Fill the screen by changing [Wide mode]
to eliminate the black bars.
☐ Turn off the OSD (On Screen Display)
by pressing
button and select [Info], and turn off the
menus from connected equipment.
☐ Avoid displaying static images with
bright colors (including white) or logos
on any portion of the screen.
☐ Set the picture settings based on the
ambient conditions. The Standard
Picture is recommended for home use
and when viewing content that often
displays the station logos, etc.
