A. Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum viewing level.
B. Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.
C. Turn the power off when not in actual use.
Note:
VCR Connection VCRs, video disc players, video game equipment, and DSS equipment can also be
connected to the video inputs. See the optional equipment manual for more information.
The marking or retained image on the picture tube resulting from fixed image use is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by Warranty. This
product is not designed to display fixed image patterns for extended periods
of time.
