• Please Keep the monitor out of direct

sunlight, very strong bright lights and away
from any other heat source. Lengthy
exposure to this type of environment may
result in discoloration and damage to the
monitor.

• Remove any object that could fall into

ventilation holes or prevent proper cooling
of the monitor’s electronics.

• Do not block the ventilation holes on the

cabinet.

• When positioning the monitor, make

sure the power plug and outlet are easily
accessible.

• If turning off the monitor by detaching the

power cable or DC power cord, wait for 6
seconds before attaching the power cable
or DC power cord for normal operation.

• Please use approved power cord provided
by Philips all the time. If your power cord
is missing, please contact with your local
service center. (Please refer to Customer
Care Consumer Information Center)

• Do not subject the monitor to severe
vibration or high impact conditions during
operation.

• Do not knock or drop the monitor during
operation or transportation.

Maintenance

• To protect your monitor from possible
damage, do not put excessive pressure
on the LCD panel. When moving your
monitor, grasp the frame to lift; do not lift
the monitor by placing your hand or fingers
on the LCD panel.

• Unplug the monitor if you are not going to
use it for an extensive period of time.

• Unplug the monitor if you need to clean it
with a slightly damp cloth. The screen may
be wiped with a dry cloth when the power
is off. However, never use organic solvent,
such as, alcohol, or ammonia-based liquids
to clean your monitor.

• To avoid the risk of shock or permanent
damage to the set, do not expose the
monitor to dust, rain, water, or excessive
moisture environment.

• If your monitor gets wet, wipe it with dry

1. Important

• Temperature: 0-40°C 32-95°F

• Humidity: 20-80% RH

Important information for Burn-in/Ghost
image

• Always activate a moving screen saver
program when you leave your monitor
unattended. Always activate a periodic
screen refresh application if your monitor
will display unchanging static content.
Uninterrupted display of still or static
images over an extended period may cause
“burn in”, also known as “after-imaging” or
“ghost imaging”, on your screen.

• “Burn-in”, “after-imaging”, or “ghost imaging”
is a well-known phenomenon in LCD panel
technology. In most cases, the “burned in”
or “after-imaging” or “ghost imaging” will
disappear gradually over a period of time
after the power has been switched off.

Warning

Failure to activate a screen saver, or a periodic
screen refresh application may result in severe
“burn-in” or “after-image” or “ghost image”
symptoms that will not disappear and cannot be
repaired. The damage mentioned above is not
covered under your warranty.

2. Fit new fuse which should be a BS 1362
5A,A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

3. Retit the fuse cover.

If the tted plug is not suitable for your socket

outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate

3-pin plug tted in its place.

If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should
have a value of 5A. If a plug without a fuse is
used, the fuse at the distribution board should
not be greater than 5A.

NOTE: The severed plug must be destroyed

to avoid a possible shock hazard
should it be inserted into a 13A socket
elsewhere.

7.1 Philips’ Flat Panel Monitors Pixel

Defect 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 the TFT Monitor panels
used in at panel monitors 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 denes

acceptable defect levels for each type. In order
to qualify for repair or replacement under
warranty, the number of pixel defects on a TFT
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.

black pixel. Other combinations of lit and dark
sub pixels appear as single pixels of other colors.

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. There are
the 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

Two adjacent lit sub pixels:

- Red + Blue = Purple

- Red + Green = Yellow

- Green + Blue = Cyan (Light Blue)

Three adjacent lit sub pixels (one white pixel).

29

7. Customer care and warranty

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.

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 species tolerances

for the proximity of pixel defects.

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
the types of black dot defects.

Pixel Defect Tolerances

In order to qualify for repair or replacement
due to pixel defects during the warranty period,

a TFT Monitor panel in a Philips at panel

monitor must have pixel or sub pixel defects
exceeding the tolerances listed in the following
tables.

BRIGHT DOT DEFECTS ACCEPTABLE LEVEL

1 lit subpixel 3
2 adjacent lit subpixels 1
3 adjacent lit subpixels (one white pixel) 0
Distance between two bright dot defects* >15mm
Total bright dot defects of all types 3

BLACK DOT DEFECTS ACCEPTABLE LEVEL

1 dark subpixel 5 or fewer
2 adjacent dark subpixels 2 or fewer
3 adjacent dark subpixels 0
Distance between two black dot defects* >15mm
Total black dot defects of all types 5 or fewer

TOTAL DOT DEFECTS ACCEPTABLE LEVEL

Total bright or black dot defects of all types 5 or fewer

Note

1. 1 or 2 adjacent sub pixel defects = 1 dot defect

2. This monitor is ISO9241-307 compliant(ISO9241-307: Ergonomic requirement , analysis and

compliance test methods for electronic visual displays)

3. ISO9241-307 is the successor of formerly known ISO13406 standard, which is withdrawn by the

International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) per: 2008-11-13.
