Excessive sound pressure from
earphones and headphones can cause
hearing loss. Adjustment of the
equalizer to maximum increases the
earphones and headphones output
voltage and therefore the sound

3. Image Optimization
3.3 Adaptive Sync
Adaptive Sync
PC gaming has long been an imperfect
experience because GPUs and monitors
update at different rates. Sometimes
a GPU can render many new pictures
during a single update of the monitor,
and the monitor will show pieces of
each picture as a single image. This is
called “tearing.” Gamers can fix tearing
with a feature called “v-sync,” but the
image can become jerky as the GPU
waits on the monitor to call for an
update before delivering new pictures.
The responsiveness of mouse input and
overall frames per second are reduced
with v-sync, too. AMD Adaptive Sync
technology eliminates all of these
problems by letting the GPU update the
monitor the moment a new picture is
ready, leaving gamers with unbelievably
smooth, responsive, tearing-free games.
Followed by the graphic card that are

How does it work?
• PowerSensor works on principle
of transmission and reception of
harmless “infrared” signals in order
to detect user-presence.
• When the user is in front of the
monitor, the monitor operates
normally, at the predetermined
settings that the user has set- i.e.
brightness, contrast, color, etc
• Assuming that the monitor was set
to 100% of brightness for example,
when the user leaves his seat and is
no longer in front of the monitor, the
monitor automatically reduces the
power consumption upto 80%.

5. Designs to prevent
computer vision
syndrome (CVS)
Philips monitor is designed to prevent
eye strain caused by prolonged
computer use.
Follow below instructions and use
Philips monitor to efficiently reduce
fatigue and maximum working
productivity.
1. Appropriate environment lighting:
• Adjusting the environment lighting
similar to that of your screen
brightness, avoid the fluorescent
lighting, and surfaces that don’t
reflect too much light.
• Adjusting the brightness and
contrast to appropriate level.
2. Good working habits:
• Excessive usage of monitor can
cause eye discomfort, it’s better
to take shorter breaks more
often at your workstation than
longer breaks and less often; for
example a 5-10 minute break
after 50-60-minute continuous
screen use is likely to be better
than a 15-minute break every two
hours.
• Looking at something varying
distances after a long period
focusing on the screen.
• Gently closing and rolling your
eyes to relax.
• Conscious blinking often while
working.
• Gently stretch your neck, and
slowly tilt your head forward,
backward, side for pain relief.
3. Ideal working posture
• Reposition your screen to
appropriate height and angle
according to your height.
4. Choose Philips monitor for easy-on-
eyes.
• Anti-glare screen: Anti-glare
screen efficiently reduces
annoying and distracting
reflections that caused eye
fatigue.
• Flicker-free technology designs
to regulate brightness and reduce
flicker for more comfortable
viewing.
• LowBlue mode: Blue light
may cause eye strains. Philips
LowBlue mode allows you to set
different blue light filter levels for
variety working situation.
• EasyRead mode for a paper-
like reading experience, giving
a more comfortable viewing
experience while dealing with
long documents on the screen.

9.1 Philips’ Flat Panel Displays
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 Display panels used
in flat panel displays are sometimes
unavoidable. No manufacturer can
guarantee that all panels will be
free from pixel defects, but Philips
guarantees that any display 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 Display panel must exceed
these acceptable levels. For example,
no more than 0.0004% of the sub
pixels on a display 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 display
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)
27
9. Customer care and warranty
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 Display panel
in a Philips flat panel display must have
pixel or sub pixel defects exceeding the
tolerances listed in the following tables.
Three adjacent lit sub pixels (one white
pixel).
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
display displays a light pattern. These
are the types of black dot defects.

Burn-in, or After Image, or Ghost
Image in LCD panels?
Ans.: 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 "atter-
imaging" or "ghost imaging" will
disappear gradually over a period
of time after the power has been
switched off.
Always activate a moving screen
saver program when you leave
your display unattended.
Always activate a periodic screen
refresh application if your LCD
display will display unchanging
static content.
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.
Q12: Why is my Display not showing
sharp text, and is displaying
jagged characters?
Ans.: Your LCD display works best at its

10. Troubleshooting & FAQs
10.3 Multiview FAQs
Q1: How to listen to Audio,
independent of video?
Ans.: Normally the audio source is
linked to the main picture source.
If you want to change audio-
source input (for example: listen
to your MP3 player independently
regardless of the video source
input), you can press to enter
OSD menu. Select your preferred
[Audio Source] option from the
[Audio] main menu.
Please note that the next time
you turn on your Display, the
Display will by default select the
audio source you chose last time.
In case you want to change it
again, you need to go through the
above steps to select your new
preferred audio source, which
then will become the “default”
mode.
Q2: Why the sub-windows flickers
when I enable PBP.
Ans: It’s because the sub-windows
video source is interlace timing(
i-timing), please change sub-
window signal source to be
progressive timing( P-timing).
