Panel sticking and after-image lag
• Displaying the same images such as still images for
a long time may cause after-image lagging. This may
occur in the following two cases.
1. After-image lagging due to remaining electrical
load
When image patterns with very high peak luminance
are displayed for more than 1 minute, after-image
lagging may occur due to the remaining electric load.
The after-images remaining on the screen will disap-
pear when moving images are displayed. The time for
the after-images to disappear depends on the lumi-
nance of the still images and the time they had been
displayed.
2. After-image (lag image) due to burning
Avoid displaying the same image on the Plasma
Display continuously over a long period of time. If the
same image is displayed continuously for several
hours, or for shorter periods of time over several days, a
permanent after-image may remain on the screen due
to burning of the fluorescent materials. Such images
may become less noticeable if moving images are later
displayed, but they will not disappear completely.
• The energy save function can be set to help prevent
damage from screen burning (see page 42).
