are easily accessible.
• IMPORTANT: Always activate a screen saver program during your
application. If a still image in high contrast remains on the screen for
an extended period of time, it may leave an ‘after-image’ or ‘ghost
image’ on the front of the screen. This is a well-known phenomenon
that is caused by the shortcomings inherent in LCD technology. In
most cases the afterimage will disappear gradually over a period
of time after the power has been switched off. Be aware that the
after-image symptom cannot be repaired and is not covered under
warranty.

Notice
WARNING – THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
The equipment should draw power from a socket with an attached
protection circuit (a three-prong socket). All equipment that works Important:
together (computer, display, printer, and so on) should have the same
power supply source. (B)

The phasing conductor of the room’s electrical installation should have (A)
a reserve short-circuit protection device in the form of a fuse with a
nominal value no larger than 16 amperes (A).
To completely switch off the equipment, the power supply cable must
be removed from the power supply socket, which should be located
near the equipment and easily accessible.
A protection mark “B” confirms that the equipment is in compliance
with the protection usage requirements of standards PN-93/T-42107
and PN-89/E-06251.
This apparatus is supplied with an approved moulded 13A plug. To
change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:
1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fit new fuse which should be a BS 1362 5A,A.S.T.A. or BSI approved
type.
3. Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut
off and an appropriate 3-pin plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5A. If a plug
without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be
greater than 5A.
NOTE: The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock
hazard should it be inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.

7. Pixel Defect Policy

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 sub-pixel defects on the PDP / TFT panels used in Plasma- & LCD- displays are sometimes unavoidable. No manufacturer can
guarantee that all panels will be free from pixel defects, but Philips guarantees that any Plasma- & LCD- displays with an unacceptable number of defects
will be repaired during the warranty period in line with your local guarantee conditions.
This notice explains the different types of pixel defects and defines the acceptable defect level for the 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.

7.1. Pixels and Sub-pixels

A pixel, or picture element, is composed of three sub-pixels in the primary colors of red, green and
subpixel 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.

pixel

7.2. Types of Pixel Defects + Dot Definition

Pixel and sub-pixel defects appear on the screen in different ways. There are three categories of pixel defects and several types of sub-pixel defects within
each category.
Dot definition = What is a defective “Dot”? :
One or more defective, adjacent sub-pixel are defined as one “dot”. The no. of defective sub-pixels are not relevant to define a defective dot. This means
that a defective dot can consist of one, two or three defective sub-pixels which can be dark or lit.

R G B

One dot = One Pixel; consists of three sub-pixels of Red, Green, and Blue.

7.3. Bright Dot Defects

Bright dot defects appear as pixels or sub-pixels that are always lit or “on”. These are the examples of bright dot defects:

One lit red, green or blue sub pixel Two adjacent lit sub pixels: Three adjacent lit sub pixels (one white pixel)
Red + Blue = Purple
Red + Green = Yellow
Green + Blue = Cyan (Light Blue)

17
BDL4620QL

7.4. Dark Dot Defects

Black dot defects appear as pixels or sub-pixels that are always dark or “off ”. These are the examples of black dot defects:

One dark dot Two adjacent dark dots = 1 pair of dark dots Two dark dots, specifications defines the
minimum distance between dark dots

7.5. Proximity of Pixel Defects

Because pixel and sub-pixels defects of the same type that are nearby one another may be more noticeable, Philips also specifies tolerances for the
proximity of pixel defects. In the table below you can find specifications about:
• Allowed amount of adjacent dark dots = (adjacent dark dots =1 pair of dark dots)
• Minimum distance between dark dots
• Total no. of all defective dots

7.6. Pixel Defect Tolerances

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.
BRIGHT DOT EFFECT ACCEPTABLE LEVEL
1 lit sub pixel 2
BLACK DOT EFFECT ACCEPTABLE LEVEL
1 dark sub pixel 10
TOTAL DOT DEFECTS OF ALL TYPES 12
NOTE: * 1 or 2 adjacent sub pixel defects = 1 dot defect

7.7. 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 long-term operation under high ambient temperatures. It
is an industry- wide phenomenon and Mura is not repairable. It is also not covered by our warranty terms.
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
• Non-uniform luminance distribution of the backlight
• 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

8. Cleaning and Troubleshooting

8.1. 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.
Front Panel Cleaning Instructions
• The front of the display has been specially treated. Wipe the surface gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
• If the surface becomes dirty, soak a soft, lint-free cloth in a mild detergent solution. Wring the cloth to remove excess liquid. Wipe the surface of
the display to remove dirt. Then use a dry cloth of the same type to dry.
• 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 lint-free cloth in a mild detergent solution. Wring the cloth to remove as much moisture as possible. Wipe
the cabinet. Use another dry cloth to wipe over until the surface is dry.
• 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.
