IMPORTANT: 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 imag-
ing" 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.
Service
The casing cover should be opened only
by qualified service personnel.
If there is any need for any document for
repair or integration, please contact with
your local service center. (please refer to
the chapter of "Consumer Information
Center")
For transportation information, please
refer to "Technical Specifications".
Do not leave your monitor in a car/trunk
under direct sun light.
Note
Consult a service technician if the monitor
does not operate normally, or you are not sure
what procedure to take when the operating
instructions given in this manual have been
followed.

8.1 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 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
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.
subpixel
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.
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.
Two adjacent lit sub pixels:
- Red + Blue = Purple
- Red + Green = Yellow
- Green + Blue = Cyan (Light Blue)
Three adjacent lit sub pixels (one white pixel).

.
C
ustomer care and warrant
y
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 the types of black dot defects.
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 TFT Monitor panel in a Philips flat panel
monitor must have pixel or sub pixel defects
exceeding the tolerances listed in the following
tables.

9.4 MHL FAQs
Q1: I cannot see my mobile device image on
the monitor screen
Ans.:
Please check if your mobile device is MHL
certified.
You also need to have a MHL certified
cable to connect the devices.
Make sure that you have connected to the
MHL-HDMI port, and that correct input
is selected on the Monitor via the input
selector (front bezel or OSD)
The product is officially MHL-certified.
As this monitor is a passive display, if you
encounter any unexpected troubles when
using the MHL input, please refer to the
mobile device’s user manual or contact the
manufacturer of the mobile device.
Attention
No video input(MHL-HDMI)
Make sure your mobile device has not
entered standby (sleep) mode. If it has,
then you will see a notification message on
the display. Once the mobile device wakes
up, the monitor’s display will wake and
show the images. You may need to make
sure that the correct input is selected if in
between you have used or connected any
other device
Q2. Why is the image on the monitor display
of poor quality? My mobile device looks
far better.
Ans.:
The MHL standard defines fixed
1080p@30hz for output, and input. This
monitor complies with this standard.
The image quality depends on the quality
of the original contents. If the content is of
high resolution (example HD or 1080p),
then it will appear in HD or 1080p on this
monitor display. If the original content is in
low resolution (example QVGA) it may
look good on the mobile device due to
its small screen size, but will look to be of
lower quality on the large screen monitor
display.
Q3. I cannot hear sound from the monitor
display.
Ans.:
Make sure your monitor display has built-
in speakers and the volume is turned on
the monitor side, and also on the mobile
device side. You may also want to use
optional headphones.
If your monitor display does not have
in built speakers, then you can connect
optional headphones to the output on the
monitor. Please ensure that the volume is
turned on the monitor side, and also on
the mobile device side.
