Still image warning

Avoid displaying still images (such as jpeg picture ﬁles), still image elements (such as TV channel logos, stock or news bars at the screen bottom etc.), or programmes in panorama or 4:3 image format on the screen. Constantly displaying still pictures can cause image burn-in on the LED screen, which will affect image quality. To reduce risk of this effect, please follow the recommendations below:

• Avoid displaying the same TV channel for long periods.

• Always try to display any image in full screen. Use the TV set’s picture format menu for the best possible match.

• Reduce brightness and contrast values to minimum required level to achieve desired picture quality, exceeded values may speed up the burnout process.

• Frequently use all TV features designed to reduce image retention and screen burnout, refer to proper user manual section for details.

Failing to do so may result in ﬁre or a problem with the product due to an increase in the internal temperature of the product.
