Introduction
CAUTION: Take extreme caution if
you plan to display video games or
computer screens on your TV. If a fixed
(non-moving) pattern is left on the
screen for several hours, the image can
be permanently imprinted onto the
screen. For this reason, we do not
recommend connecting video games,
computers, or similar devices to your
TV. Keeping the TV's BRIGHTNESS
and CONTRAST functions at low
settings will help delay the imprinting
but it is often too easy for someone in
your family to leave the pattern
displayed too long and imprint the
screen. These types of imprints are not
covered by your warranty because they
are the result of misuse.
