appear clearly or may move slowly. Also, movement of the
image may seem to be out of synchronization or the image
quality may decline in such environments. Note that this is
not a malfunction or problem.

inside of the liquid crystal panel to cloud over due to water
vapor or it may cause condensation (droplets of water) to
form and, as a result, the panel may not work properly.

Instead, leave the unit standing for about an hour, and
then resume or start use.
