PREVENTION OF SCREEN BURN
This Wide Screen TV is designed to display wide screen pictures, images should be viewed mostly in wide screen format or
zoomed to fill the screen with moving pictures. Use of side panels, top and bottom panels of standard picture formats should only
be 15% of your total viewing time to prevent uneven aging of the phosphors. Phosphors in the lighted area of the picture will age
more rapidly than the gray areas. Continuous on-screen displays such as video games, stock market quotations, computer gen-
erated graphics, and other fixed (non-moving) patterns can cause permanent damage to television receivers. Such "SCREEN
BURNS" constitute misuse and are NOT COVERED by your HITACHi Factory Warranty.
