Burn-In Versus Temporary Image Retention
Burn-in causes the screen to retain an image essentially forever, with little or no way
to correct the problem. Under normal use, an LCD module will not experience
burn-in, as plasma displays do, nor will it retain images in any way.

patterns or images. However, LCD modules can experience temporary image
retention when recommended usage guidelines are not followed.
What is Temporary Image Retention?
Temporary image retention (TIR) can occur when a static image is displayed
continuously for extended periods of time. An electrical charge differential may build
up between the electrodes of the liquid crystal, which causes a negative-color video
image (color-inverted and brightness-inverted version of the previous image) to be
retained when a new image is displayed. This behavior is true for any LCD device
from any LCD manufacturer.

from any LCD manufacturer.
TIR is not covered under warranty. See standard warranty terms and conditions for
details. Here are some guidelines to help you avoid TIR:
