At this moment, you should turn off and turn on the TV; and if the phenomena disappear after the on-off, it would not be considered as malfunction.

The TV is manufactured with technology of extra high precision, however there possibly is pixel loss or light spot on the screen sometimes. This is not a problem.

Do not make the still pictures display too long because it probably bring permanent burn-in on the TV screen (still pictures include signs, video games, computer figures, electronic texts and the pictures displaying in the mode of 4: 3).

If there is permanent burn-in on the TV screen caused by using still pictures which affect the quality of picture, it is not in the scope of maintenance service.
