IMPORTANT TV CARE INFORMATION
Do not allow a still image to be displayed on your TV screen for an extended period of time. This can
cause a permanent residual image (‘burn-in’) remaining on your screen.
The SmartBox has a screen saver that automatically cuts in after 10 mins on the EPG and FetchTV
service to help protect your screen. You can disable this feature in the audio video menu, or change
the default time.
Plasma and Rear Projection televisions are at a higher risk of burn-in. These televisions are more
prone to burn-in during the first 200 hours of use. LCD screens can also suffer from image
persistence.
Always consult your television manufacturer’s manual for proper operating instructions.
Examples of still images include:
Channel logos and certain channel formats;
Images displayed in a 4:3, 14:9 and 16:9 mode that are different to your TV set up;
On-screen information (e.g. Tickers and Active features) that are part of programmes;
Electronic Programme Guides;
Games and voting features;
Audio channels.
