Image Sticking

The Plasma monitor illuminates phosphors to display images. The phosphor has a finite
illumination life. After extended periods of illumination, the brightness of the phosphor will
be degraded to such an extent that stationary images would burn-in that part of the screen
as grayed-out images.

Tips to prevent such image sticking are:
*Do not display images having sharp brightness differences or hi-contrast images, such as

monochrome characters and graphic patterns for extended periods.
*Do not leave stationary images for extended periods, but try to refresh them at appropriate

intervals, or try to move them using the screen saver function.
*Turn down the contrast and brightness levels.
