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. For video signals, 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. [. . . ]
