IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING THE USE OF VIDEO GAMES, COMPUTERS, OR
OTHER FIXED IMAGE DISPLAYS.
WARNING: The marking or retained image on the picture tube resulting from viewing fixed
image is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by Warranty.
This television is designed to display constantly moving images on the screen. Continuous viewing
of stationary images such as letterbox pictures on standard screen TVs (with top/bottom bars), nonexpanded standard (4:3) pictures on wide screen TVs (with side bars shown on each side of an
image), stock market report bars (ticker running at the bottom of the screen), video game patterns,
fixed scoreboards, bright station logos, on-line (internet) or repetitive computer style patterns should
be limited.
The extended use of fixed image program material can cause a permanent picture tube damage,
shown as a “shadow image” viewable on normal programs. This type of irreversible picture tube
deterioration can be limited by performing the following steps:
• Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.
• Turn the power off when not in use.

Component Codes
The Universal Remote Control is capable of operating many component brands after entering a code. Some components
may not operate because the codes are not available due to limited memory. The Universal Remote Control does not
control all features found in each model.
