Pursuant to FCC regulations, you are 
cautioned that any changes or modifications 
not expressly approved in this manual could 
void your authority to operate this 
equipment.CAUTION
Bright, stationary images, such as TV 
station logos or photos, displayed on your 
TV can become permanently imprinted 
onto the screen. This type of imprint is 
known as “Image Retention.” Please take 
the following steps to reduce the risk of this 
occurring:
View a variety of program sources or 
programming material. Changing the 
program material viewed reduces the 
possibility that a single image will become 
imprinted on the TV screen.
When using video games, set-top boxes, or 
similar products with your TV, or when 
viewing a TV station whose logo always 
stays on the screen, select the appropriate 
Picture settings for the room brightness 
and set Picture Mode to Standard (see 
page 32 for instructions on adjusting 
Picture settings).
This TV was designed primarily for 
viewing TV broadcasts in wide screen 
mode (16:9 aspect ratio). Therefore, when 
viewing conventional (4:3) TV programs, 
select Wide Zoom or Full in the Wide 
Mode.
To reduce the risk of image retention, turn 
off the On Screen Display (OSD) by 
pressing the DISPLAY button, and turn off 
the menus of connected equipment (see 
page 20 and 30).
IMAGE RETENTION IS NOT COVERED 
BY YOUR WARRANTY. Un-repairable 
damage can occur and is not covered under
