Philips Pixel Defect Policy

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 LCD panels used in flat 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 defines acceptable defect levels for each type. In order to

qualify for repair or replacement under warranty, the number of pixel defects on a TFT LCD panel

must exceed these acceptable levels. For example, no more than 0.0004% of the sub pixels on a 19"

XGA 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.

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

other colors.
