‐ WARNINGS: Image retention, commonly known as screen burn-in,
can occur on most types of television if the same image is displayed
continuously. The most common causes of image retention are
logos that remain stationary on the TV screen. These logos are
common on many programmes received via a Set-top Box. To reduce
this risk, avoid displaying still images for long durations and lower
the brightness or contrast settings to decrease the intensity of the
picture. Extended viewing of movies and programmes in aspect ratios
that are different from the aspect ratio of the TV may cause image
retention. Always try to avoid black borders at the top or bottom by
using the zoom function. This will help eliminate the black borders
and fit the picture to the entire area of the screen. Using a video
game console may cause image retention and is not recommended.
When using a PC input, avoid displaying still images for long
durations and reduce the brightness or contrast settings to decrease
the intensity of the picture.
‐ IMPORTANT: Image retention issues are not covered by your
Samsung® warranty.
