NOTE
• The Plasma Display’s imaging characteristics may
deteriorate if the following screen sizes are displayed for a
prolonged period: 4:3, FULL 14:9, CINEMA 14:9, Dot by Dot
(except when the input size is 1920x1080).
If the above screen sizes are 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.
Unless doing so would infringe copyright restrictions, it is
strongly recommended to choose a screen size that does not
produce black bands at top/bottom or right/left of the
screen.
• It is not recommended to consistently display signals that do
not completely fill the screen. This may cause temporary or
permanent image retention depending on the frequency and
duration.
Some HD broadcasts may display 4:3 content with side
masks, which may cause uneven wear. After viewing, it is
recommended to view full screen motion video.
• When using the Plasma Display in a profit-making activity, or
when exhibiting images publicly, using the screen size
function to compress or stretch the image may result in
infringement of the copyrights of the image owners.
