Protecting the TV Screen (OLED TV)
Precautions to Protect the Screen from
Damage
Image retention
OLED TV‘s are susceptible to image retention (b urn-in) due to the
characteristics of the m aterials used. Image retention may occur if
images are displayed in the same location on the screen
repeatedly or over extended period s of time. This is not a
malfunction of the TV. Avoid displaying images that may cause
image rete ntion.
The following are examples of images that may
cause image retention:
• Content with black bars either on the top and bottom and/or
the left and ri ght sides of the screen. (for example, Letterboxed,
4:3 screen, Standard defini tion)
• Static images suc h as photos.
• Video gam es that might have static content in some part of the
sc
reen.
• On-screen menus, program guides, channel logos etc.
• Static content from ap plications.
• On-screen tickers , such as those used for n ews and headlines.
To reduce the risk of image retention:
• Sony recomm ends that you turn off the TV normally by pressing
the power button on the remote control or the TV.
• Fill the screen by changing [Wide mode] to eliminate the black
bars. Select [Wide m ode] other than [Norm al].
• Turn off the OSD (On Screen Display) by pressing the /
button, and turn off th e menus from connected eq uipment. For
de
tails, refer to the instruction m anuals for the connected
equipment.
• Avoid display ing static images with bright colors (including
white), clocks or logos on any portion of the screen.
• Set the picture settings based on the ambient conditions. The
Standard Picture is recommended for hom e use and when
viewing content that ofte n displays the station logo s, etc.

the TV and wait for two minutes, and plug in
the AC power cord (mains lead).

When you plug in the TV, the TV may not be
able to turn on for a while even if you press
the power button on the remote control or
the TV.
It takes time to initialize the system. Wait for
abo
ut one minute, then operate it again.
Troubles and Solutions
When the illumination LED is flashing in red.
Count how many times it flashes (interval time is
three seconds).
Reboot the TV by disconnecting the AC power
co
rd (mains lead) until the illumination LED
stopped flashing in red, then turn on the TV.
If the problem persists, disconnect the AC power
co
rd (mains lead), and contact your dealer or Sony

The TV surrounds become warm.
Whe n the TV is used for an extended period, the
TV surrounds become warm. You may feel hot

The screen becomes darker while watching
TV.
If the whole image or part of the image remains
still, the screen brightness will be gradually
reduced to prevent image retention. This is not a
malfunction of the TV.
You are concerned about image retention.
If the same image is displayed repeatedly or for
g periods of time, image retention may
lon
occur. To reduce image retention, we
recommend that you turn off the TV normally by
pressing the power button on the remote
control or the TV.
• Perform Panel refresh manually only when image
retention is particularly noticeable. As a reference,
perform it only once a year. Avoid performing it more
than once a year because it may affect the usable life
of the panel.
• Images that include clocks, logos and bright colors
(including white) easily cause image retention. Avoid
displaying these types of images for long periods of
time, otherwise image retention may occur.
A white line appears on the screen.
Panel refresh automatically runs after the TV has
been used for long periods of time to reduce
image retention. Panel refresh starts after the TV
is turned off and takes about one hour to
complete. A white line may be displayed on the
screen during the Panel refresh. This is not a
malfunction of the TV.
