13
Screen Maintenance
To reduce the risk of image retention on the screen, regularly conduct the following maintenance. Not following these ins-
tructions may void your warranty.

• Avoid displaying a still image for extended periods.

A still image refers to an image that does not change over time, such as a photograph.
A still image may result in permanent damage to the OLED screen, causing the image to continue to appear when no
longer actively being shown.
For best results:
1. No Static Images. Do not display a still image for an extended time (4 hours). This may cause screen image residue
(burn-in). If an image needs to be displayed for an extended time, reduce the brightness and contrast as much as possib-
le.
2. Use Full Screen. When watching video that is letterboxed or pillar-boxed, such as 4:3 video, may result in artifacts.
Use full screen mode to reduce this issue.
3. No Stickers. Do not put labels or stickers directly on the screen. This may cause screen damage.

• Do not use this display for more than four hours continuously.
This product uses many technologies to reduce or eliminate image retention (burn-in). Use the default screen settings to
avoid image retention and maintain image quality.

• Pixel Orbiting (Image Shift)

Orbit will slightly shift the displayed image at the pixel level, once a second to prevent image retention.
This function is “On (Weak)” by default, “Weak” moves the least, “Strong” moves the most, “Off” disables the movement
and increases the chance of image retention. This can be set in the OSD menu.

• Panel Refresh (Screen compensation and correction) / Pixel Refresh (Off Real Slow)
OLED displays begin to show image retention when a still image is displayed for a long time, about 4 hours of continuous
use.
To eliminate image residue that is beginning to appear, run the screen compensation correction and image residue elimi-
nation functions regularly for best display performance.

Maintenance cycle
You may run this function in one of the following ways:
1). From the OSD menu, manually turn on the image residue elimination function, and select “Yes” from the menu.

During the maintenance cycle the screen will automatically turn off,
and the power indicator will flash. The cycle will take about 10
minutes. Once complete, the monitor will turn off and the power
indicator will go dark.

Do you want to activate Pixel Refresh now?

Yes No

2). From the warning message dialog that appears after every 4 hours of cumulative operation, and select “Yes.”

The monitor has been working continuously for over 4 hours.

Maintenance is now required. During this process the monitor will
automatically turn off, and the power indicator will flash. The
maintenance cycle will take about 10 minutes. Once the maintenance
is complete, the monitor will turn off and the power indicator will go
dark.

Do you want to activate Pixel Refresh now?

Yes No

14
After every 4 hours of cumulative operation, the screen compensation correction and image residue elimination function
will automatically run when the display is turned off, or has been in standby for 2 hours.

During this operation keep the power on.

The monitor will first run the screen compensation correction function which will take about 30 seconds. The power indi-
cator will flash white (3 seconds on, then 3 seconds off) during this operation.
Then the image residue elimination function will run which will take about 10 minutes. During this operation the power in-
dicator will flash white (1 second on and 1 second off).
When complete, the power indicator will turn orange for standby mode, or will be off for switch-off state.

During the maintaining, if the user presses the power button to turn the monitor on, the maintaining process will be inter-
rupted and the display will take extra about 5 seconds to turn on.
You may check the number of time the image residue elimination function has run under the “Extra” section of the OSD
menu.

• Auto Warning
If turn off Auto Warning and do not run Pixel Refresh or Panel Refresh within the recommended period, it may cause ima-
ge retention issue on the display.

If turn off Auto Warning and do not run Pixel Refresh or Panel
Refresh within the recommended period, it may cause image
retention issue on the display.

Do you want to turn off Auto Warning now?

Yes No

When the cumulative usage time reaches 16 hours, countdown warnings will start to appear 10 minutes before. (from 10
minutes to 1 minute remaining).
it is reminding you that the Monitor will go into maintaining process ,strongly suggest you save the files.

To maintain the panel’s quality, Pixel Refresh will

automatically run after the monitor is in use for 16 continuous
hours. This message serves as an advisory that Pixel Refresh will
begin in 10 minutes. It is important to note that Pixel Refresh is
mandatory for proper care of your panel and cannot be skipped.

While in process, Pixel Refresh will be indicated by a blinking

LED indicator until finished.
It is recommended that you do not unplug the power cable during
the process.

The following features have the default setting of “Off”, however they can be used to further protect your monitor against
QD-OLED burn-in. It is recommended that you turn on these functions to further protect your panel:

• Logos Protection
The Multi-logo protection feature will dim the screen brightness if static logos are detect ed.

• Boundary Dimmer
The Boundary Dimmer feature will dim the brightness levels of detected areas that have a great change in brightness.

• Taskbar Dimmer
The Taskbar Dimmer feature will dim the brightness of the taskbar area.

• ThermalProtection
The Thermal Protection feature will keep the monitor’s temperature under 60 degrees by reducing brightness levels.
