NOTICE OF POSSIBLE ADVERSE
EFFECTS ON TV PICTURE TUBE
Avoid displaying stationary images on
your TV screen for extended periods of
time. Fixed (non-moving) images (such
as still PIP/POP windows or black/gray
bars in wide-screen picture or PIP/POP
formats) can become permanently
engrained in the picture tube. This type
of damage is NOT COVERED BY
YOUR WARRANTY because it is the
result of misuse. See item 33 on page 4.
Using the special functions to change
the size of the displayed image (i.e.
changing the height/width ratio) for the
purpose of public display or commercial
gain may infringe on copyright laws.
Note:
• If you select one of the Theater Wide picture
sizes, the top and bottom edges of the
picture (including subtitles or captions) may
be hidden. To view the hidden edges, either
scroll the picture (Theater Wide 2 and 3 only)
or try viewing the program in Full or Natural
picture size.
• When selecting the picture size, the way
the image displays will vary depending on
the format of the program you are
currently watching. See “Notice of possible
adverse effects on TV picture tube” below.
• The PICTURE SIZE feature may not be
available for some program formats or
signals.
