Avoiding image burn-in

Displaying the same stationary image over an extended period of time,
such as a black bar, stock ticker, video game, or shopping channel logo,
can leave a permanent ghost image (burn-in). Avoid burn-in by mixing
your viewing patterns. Do not show the same stationary image for more
than 15% of your total TV viewing in any one week.

Use the Image Move option in the on-screen display (OSD) menus to
reduce the chance of image burn-in. For more information,see “Advanced”
on page 33
and “Advanced” on page 36.

Your warranty does NOT cover screen burn-in.
