IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please read these instructions. All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the
appliance is operated.
Important Information Regarding Use of
Video Games, Computers, Captions or Other
Fixed Image Displays
The extended use of fi xed image program material
can cause a permanent "shadow image" on the
LCD/LED panel.
This background image is viewable on normal
programs in the form of a stationary fi xed
image. 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 viewing level.
2. Do not display the fi xed image for extended
periods of time.
3. Turn the power off when not in actual use.
Examples of images that you need to watch out
for 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.
