Remember not to keep still pictures on
the screen for extended lengths of time
Such still pictures cause after-images on the plasma
screen if they are displayed for a long time. These
after-images are not considered malfunctions and are
not covered by the warranty.
To decrease the chance of after-images, a screen saver will
be automatically activated after a few minutes if there is no
signal and if there is no operation in AV mode. (p. 37)
The screen saver will be automatically deactivated when a
signal is detected or an operation is executed.
