FREEZE
When watching TV, freezes the picture until you press any button on
the remote to resume normal TV viewing. The FREEZE feature automatically times
out after a short time. Please note that when you "unfreeze" you go back to live
programming (skipping any programming that occurred during the freeze).
Note:
The FREEZE feature does not work on signals from the DVI-HDTV, CMP1,
or CMP2 inputs in progressive scan (480p) or HDTV (1080i) modes. It also does not
work on digital channels.
Do not use the Freeze feature for an extended period of time. This can cause
the image to be permanently imprinted on the picture tube. Such damage is not
covered by your warranty. Press any button to unfreeze the picture at any time.
