WARNING: The marking or retained image on the picture tube resulting from viewing fixed image is
not an operating defect and as such is not covered by Warranty. 
The television is designed to display constantly moving images on the screen. Continuous viewing of
stationary images such as letterbox pictures on standard screen TVs (with top/bottom bars), non-expanded
standard (4:3) pictures on wide screen TVs (with side bars shown on each side of an image), stock market
report bars (ticker running at the bottom of the screen), video game patterns, fixed scoreboards, bright station
logos, on-line (Internet) or repetitive computer style patterns should be limited.
The extended use of fixed image program material can cause permanent picture tube damage, shown as a
“shadow image” viewable on normal programs. This type of irreversible picture tube deterioration can be
limited by performing the following steps:
• Limit the display of fixed image program material to no more than 15% of total viewing time per week.
• Turn the power off when not in use.
