To use your flat screen TV for a long period of time

Cautions regarding screen burning

After-image lagging:

When characters, images or images of fixed patterns with very high luminance are displayed on your flat screen TV, even if displayed for

a relatively short period of time, the image may remain on the screen due to the residual electric load of the panel. However, this is not a

malfunction. This after-image lagging can be eliminated gradually by displaying moving images in full screen.

Burning:

When images like those described above are displayed continuously for a long period of time or repeatedly, a difference occurs between

the luminance of the continuously displayed image and that of other portions of the screen, resulting in the image remaining on the screen

due to burning. Please note that if this burning occurs, it may be difficult to completely restore the screen to the state prior to burning.

should also be noted that this phenomenon tends to occur more easily soon after the product is purchased.

· If programmes such as terrestrial digital broadcasts having a screen size of 4:3

are viewed repeatedly, the normal display area other than the black bands on

the left and right sides of the screen becomes susceptible to burning.

· If cinema-size images are repeatedly viewed in their original size, the normal

display area other than the black bands at the top and bottom of the screen

becomes susceptible to burning.

· If programmes containing a time display or station name displayed on the

screen are viewed for a long period of time (or viewed repeatedly), the displayed characters may be easily burned onto the screen.

· If images of fixed patterns such as those of personal computer displays or game software are displayed for a long period of time, the

patterns may be easily burned onto the screen.

It is recommended to use your flat screen TV while paying attention to the matters described below, particularly when using the product

soon after it has been purchased, to prevent screen burning.

· Avoid using the product while displaying images susceptible to burning as described above whenever possible.

· Use the product with the Orbiter function set to "Mode 1" (

see Useful adjustment settings: "Orbiter").

·When

viewing programmes broadcast in a 4:3 or cinema screen size, switch the screen size with the remote control unit to display

the image in full screen. (Change the screen size to "WIDE", for example, with the screen size button on the remote control unit (

see Part names: "Remote control unit")).

· Set the Side Mask detection function to "Mode 1" or "Mode 2" (

see Useful adjustment settings: "Detecting side masks").

· Set the brightness of the

side masks that appear on the left and right sides of the screen when viewing at a 4:3 screen size to "Auto"

in "Brightness Sync." (

see Useful adjustment settings: "Changing the brightness at both sides of the screen (Side Mask)").

· It is recommended to lower the brightness when viewing by setting the

Energy Save function to "Mode 1" (

see Setting up: "Power

Control").

· It is recommended to set the Screen Protection function to "Yes" (

see Useful adjustment settings: "Screen Protection").

CAUTION

The

a switch on this unit will not completely shut off all power from the

AC outlet. Since the power cord serves as the main disconnect device

for the unit, you will need to unplug it from the AC outlet to shut down

all power. Therefore, make sure the unit has been installed so that the

power cord can be easily unplugged from the AC outlet in case of an

accident. To avoid fire hazard, the power cord should also be

unplugged from the AC outlet when left unused for a long period of

time (for example, when on vacation).
