displaying a fixed image on the TV screen for a
extended length of time.

- Some horizontal lines may appear when the
Pixel Refresher feature is performed. It is
normal and there is no need to be concerned.

• Generated Sound

- Cracking noise A cracking noise that occurs
when watching or turning off the TV is
generated by plastic thermal contraction
due to temperature 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 high­speed switching circuit, which supplies a
large amount of current to operate a product.
It varies depending upon the product.
This generated sound does not affect the
