Care of the screen Clean the anti-reflex coated flat glass screen with a slightly damp soft cloth. Do not use abrasives solvents as it can damage the glass surface of the screen. Plasma Display characteristics When switching over to another picture after having displayed the same still picture for a long time (many hours), it may happen that some parts from the previous picture will remain on screen due to a kind of memory effect. This ghost picture will disappear after some time. To avoid this effect change the pictures regularly or for PC use you can turn on a screen saver in your computer. Philips has built in an automatic shift of the picture every 5 minutes to avoid this effect and to prolong the life of the screen. Very incidentally and after a longer period of unuse (approx. 1 year) the screen may display some strange colour deficiencies. This is quite normal for plasma displays and these effects will disappear after the set has been turned on for some time. A plasma display consists of more than 1, 2 Million colour pixels. It is within industry standards that very few pixels (< 0. 001%) may be defective, even for a new set. There is however no reason to doubt about the quality of the set. The plasma display technology operates with rare gases which are being influenced by air pressure. Up to an altitude of 2000 m above sea-level, the display is functioning fine.
