of time may cause image sticking. Avoid
displaying a xed image on the TV screen for a
long period of time.
Generated sound
“Cracking” noise: A cracking noise that
occurs when watching or turning o the TV
is generated by plastic thermal contraction
due to tempera-ture and humidity. This
noise is common for products where thermal
deformation is required. Electrical circuit
humming/panel buzzing: A low level noise is
generated from a high-speed switching circuit,
which supplies a large amount of current to
operate a product. It varies depending on the
product.
This generated sound does not aect the
performance and reliability of the product.
Do not use high voltage electrical goods near
the TV (e.g. electric mosquito-swatter). This
