Avoiding Image Persistence, Incidental Image or After Image:

the screen, please refresh regularly or start an application to start using the screen.

2) Long time continuous display of static images may case a "brand" on the screen; this is also cal "image persistence" or

"incidental image" or "after image." "Brand," "incidental image" or "after image" is a common phenomenon of LCD

Panel Technology. In most cases, after turning off the power supply for a certain amount of time the "brand," "incidental

image” or "after image" will gradually disappear. Also by displaying a pure white image for the entire screen for the same

duration that you had the static image that caused the image persistence may remove the image persistence. Please

contact Nixeus if you need assistance in removing image persistence.

CAUTION: Serious "brand," "incidental image" or "after image" will not disappear and cannot be repaired. This type of

damage is not covered by warranty. Please take good care of your monitor to prevent serious "brand," "incidental image"

or "after image."
