WARNING:
For plasma display monitors and picture tube rear projection display monitors,
when using the VGA input, do not leave stationary, toolbar, or partial images on-screen for
extended periods of time. Mix the types of pictures shown. Uneven plasma display or picture
tube aging is NOT covered by your warranty.
Most plasma display monitors and rear projection TV’s are not meant to be used as a work station or to view static
or odd-shaped images for an extended period of time. Any device connected to your system via the VGA port,
including, but not limited to, personal computer, game system, or digital set-top box, must have its screen saver
function activated to prevent damage to the television. We
DO NOT
recommend the use of any external device
that does not have a screen saver function with this television.
We recommend that screen saver activation time be set to less than five minutes when using a device through
the VGA port. You should also use lower brightness and contrast settings. If your computer programs allow,
toolbars should be set to hidden mode.
Please remember most computer programs and video game systems display static images, such as boxes, buttons,
tool bars, and game scores that can damage the television if used for extended periods of time, repeatedly, or
frequently.
The VGA input will automatically select the “Standard” screen format and fill the screen. No other formats are
available with the VGA Input. Standard television overscan is used, so VGA images will be cropped on all sides.
Resizing of some displays may be required. Consult your owner’s manual for computers, computer programs and
game systems for assistance with resizing display images. Please see page 70 for an explanation of uneven phosphor
aging.
