•After-image lag•After displaying a still image or a very bright image for a certain period of time, if the screen is then switched

•This can be rectified by playing a rather bright moving image for several minutes. However, displaying a still
image for excessively long periods of time may cause permanent display deterioration.
•Brightness and colour tone on both
sides differ from those in the centre in
4:3 mode.
•If images in 4:3 mode or letterbox images are displayed for long periods or for shorter periods over several
days, an after-image may remain due to burning. This is a characteristic of Plasma Displays.
•It is recommended that you enjoy watching images in wide screen as much as possible. (See page 39.)

adjusts the brightness of the grey side masks according to the brightness of images. (See page40.)
