Precautions (continued)
6
Static image caution
When connected to a TV, static, non-moving images, such as menus, configuration
displays or paused images, may leave a faint image permanently on the TV screen if left
on for extended periods of time. Projection TVs are more susceptible to this than other
types of displays. Do not operate the PS one console in such a manner that this could
®
occur.
Speaker magnets
The stereo speakers on the LCD Screen contain magnets. Do not place metal objects near
the speakers. Also, keep magnetic tapes and discs away from the speakers. Failure to do
so may result in the loss of stored data.
Bright and dark spots on the screen
Bright spots of red, blue or green or dark spots may appear in certain locations on the
screen. The appearance of such spots is a normal occurrence associated with LCD Screens
and is not a sign of malfunction. LCD panels are made using highly precise technology
and more than 99.98% of the pixels work properly. However, a very small number of
dark pixels or continuously lit pixels exist on each screen. Also, a distorted image may
remain on the screen for several seconds after the LCD Screen has been turned off.
Fluorescent tubes (backlighting)
This product uses specially designed fluorescent tubes for screen illumination. These
fluorescent tubes may wear out over time. If the screen loses brightness, starts flickering
or fails to light up, please contact the appropriate PlayStation customer service helpline
®
which can be found:
- on the customer registration card;
- within every PlayStation format software manual.
®
Games
Certain games that use gun or rifle controllers to shoot at on-screen targets cannot be
used with this product.
Changing the angle of the display panel
When the LCD Screen is connected to the PS one console,
®
the display panel can be adjusted for viewing within the
range of motion shown in the chart at right. If too much
pressure is applied to the display panel, damage to the LCD
Screen may result. When changing the angle of the display panel,
be careful not to bend it too far. Also, close the display panel when
the LCD Screen is not in use.
