stationary fixed image. This type of irreversible picture tube deterioration can be limited by
observing the following steps:
A.   Reduce the brightness/contrast setting to a minimum viewing level.
B.   Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.
C.  Turn the power off when not in actual use.
Note:The marking or retained image on the picture tube resulting from fixed image

product is not designed to display fixed image patterns for extended periods
of time.
