We strive to deliver the highest quality products and use some of the industry???s most advanced manufacturing processes whilst practicing stringent quality control. However, pixel or
This notice explains the different types of pixel defects and defines the acceptable defect level for the BDL4230E LCD screen. In order to qualify for repair under warranty, the number of pixel defects must exceed a certain level as shown in the reference table. If the LCD screen is within specification a warranty exchange / claim back will be refused. Additionally, because some types or combinations of pixel defects are more noticeable than others, Philips sets even higher quality standards for those.

In order to qualify for repair due to pixel defects during the warranty period, a PDP / TFT panel in a Philips Plasma / LCD- display must have pixel or sub- pixel defects exceeding the tolerances listed in the following table.
6.7.MURA
Dark spots or patches may occasionally appear on some liquid crystal display (LCD) panels.This is known within the industry as Mura, which is a Japanese term for ???unevenness.??? It is used to describe an irregular pattern or area in which uneven screen uniformity appears under certain conditions. Mura is a result of the deterioration of the liquid crystal alignment layer and is most commonly caused by
Mura has been around since the introduction of LCD technology and with screens getting bigger and in operation 24/7, many displays are running in low light conditions.This all adds to the possibility of Mura affecting displays.
HOW TO SPOT MURA
There are many symptoms of Mura and also multiple causes. Several of these are listed below:
???Impurities or foreign particles in the crystal matrix
???Uneven distribution of LCD matrix during manufacturing
???
???Panel assembly induced stress
???Flaws within the LCD cells
???Thermal induced stress - high temperature operation over long periods of time
HOW TO AVOID MURA
Although we can not guarantee the complete eradication of Mura every time, in general the appearance of Mura can be minimized by these methods:
???Lower the backlight brightness
???Use a screen saver
???Reduce the ambient temperature around the unit

7.Cleaning and Troubleshooting
7.1.Cleaning
Caution When Using the Display
???Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation holes of the display.The top of the display is usually very hot due to the high temperature of exhaust air being released through the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries may occur if any body parts are brought too
close. Placing any object near the top of the display could also result in heat related damage to the object as well as the display itself.
???Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the display. Moving the display with its cables attached may damage the cables and thus cause fire or electric shock.
???Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety precaution before carrying out any type of cleaning or maintenance procedure.

???If the surface becomes dirty, soak a soft,
???Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingers or hard objects of any kind.
???Do not use volatile substances such as insert sprays, solvents and thinners.
Cabinet Cleaning Instructions
???If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry cloth.
???If the cabinet is extremely dirty, soak a
???Do not allow any water or detergent to come into contact with the surface of the display. If water or moisture gets inside the unit, operating problems, electrical and shock hazards may result.
???Do not scratch or hit the cabinet with fingers or hard objects of any kind.
???Do not use volatile substances such as insert sprays, solvents and thinners on the cabinet.
???Do not place anything made from rubber or PVC near the cabinet for any extended periods of time.
