9 •The LCD panel is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology. However, black dots may appear on the panel, or some red, blue or green dots may light up extremely brightly at times. Furthermore, sometimes striped color irregularities or brightness irregularities may also appear. They are caused by the characteristics of the LCD panel, and are not a sign of malfunction. •Screen burn may remain in the projected image when a high-contrast still image is projected for more than 15 minutes. If screen burn has occured, you should project a bright screen (if a computer is used: white screen, video: as bright an animation as possible) until the screen burn disappears.
