UnlikeCRT monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not permanent, but constant images being displayed for a long periodof time should be avoided. To alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as the previous image wasdisplayed. For example, if an image was on the monitor for one hour and a residual image remains, the monitor should beturned off for one hour to erase the image.NOTE: As with all personal display devices, NEC DISPLAY SOLUTIONS recommends displaying moving images andusing a moving screen saver at regular intervals whenever the screen is idle or turning off the monitor when not in use.CAUTION
