Important User Guidance Information
Panel sticking and after-image lag
• Displaying the same images such as still images for a long
time may cause after-image lagging. This may occur in the
following two cases.
1. After-image lagging due to remaining electric
load
When image patterns with very high peak luminance are
displayed more than 1 minute, after-image lagging may occur
due to the remaining electric load. The after-images remaining
on the screen will disappear when moving images are dis-
played. The time for the after-images to disappear depends on
the luminance of the still images and the time they had been
displayed.
2. After-image (lag image) due to burning
Avoid displaying the same image on the Plasma Display
continuously over a long period of time. If the same image is
displayed continuously for several hours, or for shorter periods
of time over several days, a permanent after-image may remain
on the screen due to burning of the fluorescent materials. Such
images may become less noticeable if moving images are later
displayed, but they will not disappear completely.
• The Auto Power Off function can be set to help prevent
damage from screen burning (see page 37).
