Normal phenomena
The following things are normal, so don't worry about them.
•
When you touch the screen surface there may be some faint crackling noises and the hairs on your skin may stand
on end. This is caused by a little static electricity and is quite harmless.
•
A bright object with a lot of fine detail may show coloured bands. This is caused by the limitations in the broadcast
system, not a fault in the television.
