The normal use of a TV should include a mixture of TV
picture types. The most frequently used picture types
should fill the screen with constantly moving images
rather than stationary images or patterns. Displaying
the same stationary patterns over extended periods
of time, or displaying the same stationary pattern
frequently can leave a subtle but permanent ghost
image. To avoid this, mix your viewing pattern. Do
not show the same stationary image for more than

not show the same stationary image for more than

screen whenever possible.
This projection TV uses picture tubes to project the
image to the screen. All picture tubes age with use. As
they age, their light output is gradually reduced. Normal
they age, their light output is gradually reduced. Normal
TV pictures fill the screen with constantly changing
images. Under these conditions, picture tubes age at
an even rate across the entire screen. This maintains
a TV picture that is evenly bright over the whole
screen. Stationary images or images that only partially
fill the screen (leaving black or colored bars to fill the
screen), when used over extended periods of time or
when viewed repeatedly, can cause uneven aging of
the phosphors used in the picture tubes and can leave
subtle ghosts of the stationary images in the picture.
