10.1 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 flat panel m

onitors 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 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.
