How to reduce the risk of “Image Retention” on your TV
Bright, stationary images such as TV station logos displayed on your
TV can cause permanent damage to your TV, resulting in retention of
the image in the picture. Please take the following steps to reduce the
risk of causing image retention:
View a variety of program sources or programming material.
Image retention can occur when bright stationary images such as TV
station logos are viewed. Changing the program material viewed
reduces the possibility that a single image will become imprinted on
the picture tubes in your TV.
When viewing programs with stationary images, adjust the picture
setting to reduce the “Picture” and “Brightness” levels. Image
retention is accelerated by higher “Brightness” and higher “Picture”
settings.
Please see page 96 for instructions on adjusting picture settings.
This will help you reduce the risk of causing image retention.
IMAGE RETENTION IS NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY

• The first step in the digital processing system, Composite
Component Processor2 (CCP2), which enhances input signal to
noise ratio by chroma decoder digital processing;
• DRC
®
(Digital Reality Creation)-Multifunction V1: Unlike
conventional line doublers, the DRC Multifunction feature replaces
the signal’s NTSC waveform with the near-HD equivalent by digital
mapping processing. The DRC Palette option lets you customize the
level of detail (Reality) and smoothness (Clarity) to create up to three
custom palettes.
• Multi-Image Driver (MID
™
-XU): (Twin View™) Allows you to
watch two programs side by side. You can watch pictures from two
different sources (1080i, 720p, 480p, and 480i) simultaneously.
(Only the left Twin View window can display 1080i, 720p, an d 480p
sources.)
• CineMotion
™
: Provides an optimized display by automatically
detecting film content and applying a reverse 3/2 pulldown process.
Moving pictures will appear clearer and more natural-looking.
• Newly developed PDP driver IC: Achieves high-precision gamma
characteristics, using Sony’s unique digital technology. Fine
gradation of dark scenes, which is not possible with conventional
PDP , is realized by greatly enhancing resolution in the low brightness
range.
s BN Smoother™: Reduces the block nois e caused by digita l video
encoding and decoding process.
s Wide Screen Mode: Watch conventional 4:3 aspect ratio broadcasts in
wide screen (16:9) mode.
s Favorite Channels: Allows you to preview and select from 16 of your
favorite channels.
s Steady Sound
®
: Equalizes volume levels so there is consistent output
between programs and commercials.
s Memory Stick
®
Viewer: Allows you to v ie w on you r TV screen digi tal
images (JPEG) and movies (MPEG1) with background music (MP3)
that are stored on Memory Stick media.
s Co mponent Video Inputs: Offers the best video quality for DVD
(480p, 480i), and digital set-top box (HD1080i, 720p) connections.
s Parental Control: V-Chip technology allows parents to block
unsuitable programming from younger viewers.
