9 Pixel policy

Philips strives to deliver the highest quality products. We use some of the industry's most advanced manufacturing processes and practice stringent quality control. However, pixel or sub pixel defects on a flat monitor panel are sometimes unavoidable. No manufacturer can guarantee that all panels will be free from pixel defects, but Philips guarantees that any monitor with an unacceptable number of defects will be repaired or replaced under warranty. This notice explains the different types of pixel defects and defines acceptable defect levels for each type. In order to qualify for repair or replacement under warranty, the number of pixel defects on a monitor panel must exceed these acceptable levels. For example, no more than 0.0004% of the sub pixels on a monitor may be defective. Furthermore, Philips sets even higher quality standards for certain types or combinations of pixel defects that are more noticeable than others. This policy is valid worldwide.
Types of Pixel Defects
Pixel and sub pixel defects appear on the screen in different ways. There are two categories of pixel defects and several types of sub pixel defects within each category.
Bright Dot Defects: bright dot defects appear as pixels or sub pixels that are always lit or 'on'. That is, a bright dot is a sub-pixel that stands out on the screen when the monitor displays a dark pattern. These are some types of bright dot defects:
One lit red, green or blue sub pixel
Pixels and Sub pixels
A pixel, or picture element, is composed of three sub pixels in the primary colors of red, green and blue. Many pixels together form an image. When all sub pixels of a pixel are lit, the three colored sub pixels together appear as a single white pixel. When all are dark, the three colored sub pixels together appear as a single black pixel. Other combinations of lit and dark sub pixels appear as single pixels of other colors.
16 EN
Two adjacent lit sub pixels:
- Red + Blue = Purple
- Red + Green = Yellow
- Green + Blue = Cyan (Light Blue)
Three adjacent lit sub pixels (one white pixel)
Page 19
Note
A red or blue bright dot must be more
than 50 percent brighter than neighboring dots while a green bright dot is 30 percent brighter than neighboring dots.
Black Dot Defects: black dot defects appear as pixels or sub pixels that are always dark or 'off'. That is, a dark dot is a sub-pixel that stands out on the screen when the monitor displays a light pattern. These are some types of black dot defects:
English
Proximity of Pixel Defects
Because pixel and sub pixels defects of the same type that are near to one another may be more noticeable, Philips also specifies tolerances for the proximity of pixel defects.
Pixel Defect Tolerances
In order to qualify for repair or replacement due to pixel defects during the warranty period, a Philips flat monitor panel must have pixel or sub pixel defects exceeding the tolerances listed in the following tables.

10 Troubleshooting

This section describes commonly encountered issues and suggested solutions.

General monitor issues

The monitor does not switch on:
Disconnect the power cable from the power outlet. Wait for one minute then reconnect it.
Check that the power cable is securely connected.
The remote control is not working properly:
Check that the remote control batteries are correctly inser ted according to the +/- orientation.
Replace the remote control batteries if
they are at or weak.
Clean the remote control and monitor sensor lens.
The monitor menu is in the wrong language
Change the monitor menu to your preferred language.
When turning the monitor on/off/to standby, you hear a creaking sound from the monitor chassis:
No action is required. The creaking sound is normal expansion and contraction of the monitor as it cools and warms up. This does not impact performance.

TV channel issues

Previously installed channels do not appear in the channel list:
Check that the correct channel list is selected.
No digital channels were found during the installation:
Check that the monitor supports ISDB-Tb, SBTVD-T in your country. See the listed countries on the back of the monitor.

Picture issues

The monitor is on, but there is no picture:
Check that the antenna is properly connected to the monitor.
Check that the correct device is selected as the monitor source.
There is sound but no picture:
Check that the picture settings are correctly set.
There is poor monitor reception from an antenna connection:
Check that the antenna is properly connected to the monitor.
Loud speakers, unearthed audio devices, neon lights, high buildings and other large
objects can inuence reception quality.
If possible, try to improve the reception quality by changing the antenna direction or moving devices away from the monitor.
If reception on only one channel is poor,
ne tune this channel.
There is poor picture quality from connected devices:
Check that the devices are connected properly.
Check that the picture settings are correctly set.
The monitor did not save your picture settings:
Check that the monitor location is set to the home setting. This mode offers you
the exibility to change and save settings.
Thepicturedoesnottthescreen;itistoo
big or too small:
Try a different picture format.
The picture position is incorrect:
Picture signals from some devices may not
t the screen correctly. Check the signal
output of the device.
18 EN
Page 21

Sound issues

Computer connection issues

There is a picture but no sound from the monitor:
Note
• If no audio signal is detected, the monitor
automatically switches the audio output off — this does not indicate malfunction.
Check that all cables are properly connected.
Check that the volume is not set to 0.
Check that the sound is not muted.
There is a picture but the sound quality is poor:
Check that the sound settings are correctly set.
There is a picture but sound comes from one speaker only:
Verify that sound balance is set to the center.

HDMI connection issues

There are problems with HDMI devices:
Note that HDCP support can delay the time taken for a monitor to display content from an HDMI device.
If the monitor does not recognise the HDMI device and no picture is displayed, try switching the source from one device to another and back again.
If there are intermittent sound disruptions, check that output settings from the HDMI device are correct.
If an HDMI-to-DVI adaptor or HDMI to DVI cable is used, check that an additional audio cable is possible could be connected to PC AUDIO IN (mini-jack only).
The computer display on the monitor is not stable:
Check that a supported resolution and refresh rate is selected on the computer.
Set the monitor picture format to unscaled.
