      The screen of your Sony OLED TV might become darker while you're watching. This isn't a malfunction. To prevent image retention, the screen brightness gradually reduces if the image, or part of it, remains still.

      If the image or part of it remains still, your Sony TV automatically reduces screen brightness gradually to prevent image retention. This is normal behavior, not a malfunction.

      To minimize image retention on your Sony TV, power it off using the power button on either the remote control or the TV itself. This is recommended if the same image is displayed repeatedly or for extended periods.

      Brooke HernandezSep 2, 2025
      The message [Panel refresh did not finish…] is displayed because the TV was turned on, the AC power cord was unplugged, or the room temperature was outside the range of 50 ºF and 104 ºF (10 ºC and 40 ºC) during the Panel refresh. To prevent this, avoid the above.

      A white line on the screen indicates that panel refresh runs automatically after the TV has been used for long periods of time to reduce image retention. Panel refresh starts after the TV is turned off and takes about one hour to complete.
