About LCD display

The LCD of your CLIÉ handheld is designed with precision technology. However, in some cases, individual pixels may remain lit or may not light at all. Also, the brightness of the display may appear inconsistent, depending on the angle of view. Such anomalies are caused by the nature of the LCD and do not indicate a malfunction. Please note that Sony does not guarantee a replacement or refund for such cases. Do not expose the LCD to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time. It may result in a malfunction. Do not store your CLIÉ handheld in areas subject to sunlight, such as near windows, and be careful when using outdoors.
