Page 142: Product Information (Image Retention Free)
Information {943EW/943EWX} For Better Display Adjust the computer resolution and screen injection rate (refresh rate) on the computer as described below to enjoy the best picture quality. You can have an uneven picture quality on screen if the best picture quality is not provided for TFT- LCD.
Page 143 Information During normal operation of a LCD panel, pixel image retention doesn't occur. How- ever, if the same image is displayed for a long time, a slight difference in electric charge accumulates between the two electrodes which encase the liquid crystal. This may cause the liquid crystal to build up in a certain areas of the display.
Page 144 Information • Recommended settings: Bright colors with little difference in luminance • Change the characters color and background color every 30 minutes • Every 30 minutes, change the characters with movement. The best way to protect your monitor from Image retention is to set your PC or System to operate a Screen Saver program when you are not using it.
