NOTE: Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.
• Recommendations to avoid or minimize phosphor burn-in:
Like all phosphor-based display devices and all other gas plasma
displays, plasma monitors can be susceptible to phosphor burn under
certain circumstances. Certain operating conditions, such as the
continuous display of a static image over a prolonged period of time,
can result in phosphor burn if proper precautions are not taken. To
protect your investment in this plasma monitor, please adhere to the
following guidelines and recommendations for minimizing the
occurrence of image burn:
• If the plasma monitor is in long term use or continuous operation take
the following measures to reduce the likelihood of phosphor burn:
• Lower the Brightness and Contrast levels as much as possible without impairing
image readability.
• Display an image with many colors and color gradations
(i.e. photographic or photo-realistic images).
• Create image content with minimal contrast between light and dark areas, for
example white characters on black backgrounds. Use complementary or pastel
color whenever possible.
• Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct, sharply defined borders
between colors.
• The plasma display panel consists of fine picture elements(cells) with
more then 99.99 percent active cells. There may be some cells that do
not produce light or remain lit.
• The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm
persons without supervision.
• Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
• Although the PDP panel uses highly precise technology, it may display
blank pixels, dark spots or lighting pixels on the screen. This is normal
and not an indication of a defect.
