Important information regarding use of video
games, computers, captions or other fi xed image
displays
The extended use of fi xed image program material can cause
a permanent "shadow image" on the LCD/LED panel, also
known as "screen burn".
This "shadow image" can appear in the background during
normal viewing. This type of irreversible LCD/LED panel
deterioration can be limited by observing the following steps:
1. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum
suitable viewing level.

2. Do not display the fi xed image for extended periods
of time.

Examples of images that are more likely to cause "screen burn"
are as follows (this is not an exhaustive list):
• TV channel logos: e.g. shopping channel logos and
pricing displays - especially if they are bright and
stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less
likely to cause ageing of the screen.
• Time displays.
• Teletext: Do not view a stationary page for a long
period of time
• TV/DVD menus: e.g. listings of DVD disc content.
• Pause mode: Do not leave the TV in
pause mode
for long periods of time, e.g. when
watching DVDs
or videos.
Important: Once 'shadow image/
screen burn'
occurs, it will never disappear and
is not
repairable under warranty.
