[. . . ] Sources of stationary images may be DVD disks, laser disks, video games, CD-i disks, videotapes, digital television boxes, broadcast channels, cable channels, satellite channels, and others. Here are some examples of stationary images (this is not an all-inclusive list; you may encounter others in your viewing): · DVD menus--listings of DVD disk content · Letterbox black bars--shown at the top and bottom of the TV screen when a wide screen (16:9) movie is viewed on a TV with standard (4:3) aspect ratio. · Video-game images and scoreboards · Television station logos--present a problem if they are bright and stationary; moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging of the picture tube · Stock-market tickers--presented at the bottom of the TV screen · Shopping channel logos and pricing displays--bright and shown constantly or repeatedly in the same location on the TV screen. AND CARE PLACEMENT OF THE TV · To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where temperatures can become excessively hot; for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance. · Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the perforated back cover of the set.
