LIGHT SENSOR SCREEN
This feature detects ambient room light brightness
and uses that reading to control the panel brightness
level and picture parameters to reduce the HDTV’s
power consumption.
NOTE: When room lighting is dark, the panel brightness
and/or the picture setting parameters such as bright-
ness and contrast are lowered. When room lighting is
bright, parameters are affected opposite.
Light Sensor
Displaying a still picture for a long time may cause an
“afterimage” or “ghost” on the screen. To help avoid
this situation, use the Picture Rotationfunction.
If an afterimage occurs, use the White Pattern feature
immediately to repair the panel. The more severe the
afterimage, the longer the curing process may take.
The default on-time for White Pattern is 30 minutes.
NOTE: The sooner you remove a still picture and activate
White Pattern, the more likely it is that the panel can be
repaired.
Exit the White Pattern blank screen by pressing any
button on the remote control (except VOLUME, AUDIO
or MUTE)

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51
Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim
copies of this license document, but changing it is not
allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to takaway
your freedom to share and change it.  By contrast, the
GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee
your freedom to share and change free software--to
make sure the software is free for all its users. This
General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
Foundation's software and to any other program whose
authors commit to using it.  (Some other Free Software
Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser
General Public License instead.)  You can apply it to your
programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to
freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are
designed to make sure that you have the freedom to dis-
tribute copies of free software (and charge for this ser-
vice if you wish), that you receive source code or can get
it if you want it, that you can change the software or use
pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you
can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions
that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you
to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to
certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of
the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program,
whether free or for a fee, you must give the recipients all
the rights that you have.  You must make sure that they,
too, receive or can get the source code.  And you must
show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the
software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you
legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the
software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to
make certain that everyone understands that there is no
warranty for this free software.  If the software is modi-
fied by someone else and passed on, we want its recipi-
ents to know that what they have is not the original, so
that any problems introduced by others will not reflect
on the original authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by
software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that
redistributors of a free program will individually obtain
patent licenses, in effect making the program propri-
etary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not
licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribu-
tion and modification follow.
