Precautions When Displaying a Still Image
A still image may cause permanent damage to the TV screen.
• Digital Ready TV: When you select the regular screen (4:3) mode to watch an SD-grade digital broadcast (and the set-top box output is 480p).
• Digital Ready TV: When you select the wide screen (16:9) mode to watch an SD-grade digital broadcast (and the set-top box output is 1080i).
Although digital broadcasting must be in the wide screen (16:9) HD format, broadcasters sometimes show programs made originally in the regular screen format (4:3) by converting the signals into digital form, in which case the left and right side edges of the screen are cropped.
Note : If the borders at the left, right and the center of the screen remain fixed for an extended period of time, the amount of light transmission will also remain varied and as a result the borders may leave traces.
Do not leave the screen in pause mode for extended periods of time as you may experience the same problem with products by other manufacturers.
• Digital Ready TV: When the
TV receives HD-grade signals
(and the set-top box output is 1080i).
When you watch a digital HD-grade broadcast on a regular (4:3) TV with the screen size
"16:9" or "Panorama" selected, you will be able to watch the program but the top and bottom edges of the screen will be cropped.
Note : If the borders at the top, bottom and the center of the screen remain fixed for an extended period of time, the amount of light transmission will also remain varied and as a result the borders may leave traces.
Do not leave the screen in pause mode for extended periods of time as you may experience the same problem with products by other manufacturers.

• Digital Ready TV (wide-screen): digital TV: When the TV receives
SD-grade (regular) broadcasting signals (with a set-top box).
When you watch an analogue

If you connect a DVD player, computer or a game console to the wide-screen TV and watch a movie or play a game in regular
(4:3) or wide (21:9) screen mode, the left and right side edges, or the top and bottom edges of the screen will be cropped.

How to Reset the TV after the V-Chip Blocks a Channel
(‘Emergency Escape’)
If the TV is tuned to a restricted channel, the V-Chip will block it. The screen will go blank and the following message will appear: “Excessive rating”.
To resume normal viewing, tune to a different channel using the number buttons. Under certain conditions (depending on the rating of the local TV programs) the V-Chip might lock out all the channels.
In this case, use the Menu button for an “emergency escape”:
Select the V-Chip on the Menu. Enter your PIN number, and press the ENTER( ) button to temporarily disable the V-Chip Lock.
