Similar damage may occur from static images created when placing a video game on hold or pause. Consult your television owner’s manual to determine if video games can be played safely on your set. If you are unable to fi nd this information in the owner’s manual, contact your television dealer or the manufacturer to determine if video games can be played safely on your set.
