Important User Guidance Information
About the menu window size following video
format switch
The video program that you watch may be high definition (HD)
or standard definition (SD). This Plasma Display is designed to
scale to each type of definition properly. If the video program's
definition type changes while a menu window is displayed on
the screen (for example: HD → SD or SD → HD), the menu size
may temporarily shrink or enlarge until the scaling is
completed. This may happen, for example, when you switch
between television and an external digital video recorder
(D-VHS), or when your recorded program switches between
different definition types, while the on-screen menu is being
shown.
If this happens, the menu will return to its normal size after two
to three seconds. This action is normal, and does not indicate
a problem with your Plasma Display system.
CAUTION
Panel sticking and after-image lag
• Displaying the same images such as still images for a long
time may cause after-image lagging. This may occur in the
following two cases.
1
After-image lagging due to remaining electric load
When image patterns with very high peak luminance are
displayed more than 1 minute, after-image lagging may occur
due to the remaining electric load. The after-images remaining
on the screen will disappear when moving images are
displayed. The time for the after-images to disappear depends
on the luminance of the still images and the time they had
been displayed.
2
After-image (lag image) due to burning
Avoid displaying the same image on the Plasma Display
continuously over a long period of time. If the same image is
displayed continuously for several hours, or for shorter periods
of time over several days, a permanent after-image may remain
on the screen due to burning of the fluorescent materials.
Such images may become less noticeable if moving images
are later displayed, but they will not disappear completely.
• The Energy save function can be set to help prevent damage
from screen burning (see page 62).
