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.
