WARRANTY

The new monitor is covered by the Compaq Three-Year Limited Warranty, which covers parts and labor and includes onsite repair for the first year. Coverage for the second and third years is for parts only. Warranty upgrades and extensions are available.

NOTE: It is possible that a TFT panel will retain an image on the display if the monitor is left on with the same image for a prolonged period. Image retention ("burn in") is not a warranted failure. Compaq recommends that customers use screen savers or turn their monitors off when not in use.

TFT DISPLAY

The TFT panels used in the TFT8000 Flat Panel Monitor have over 3.9 million transistors (3 per pixel) making up the monitor. The product specifications permit a limited number of pixels to be inoperative. These inoperative pixels may be dark dots (pixels that are always off) or bright dots (pixels that are always on). Replacement of monitors that have so few inoperative transistors that they are still within the specified limits is not recommended because the replacement monitor may have more inoperative transistors than the original.

The TFT panel is not considered defective if it meets the following criteria:

o The number of dark dots visible on a white screen does not exceed 8, with no more than 2 dark dots within 0.60-inch (1.5 cm) of each other.

o The number of bright dots visible on a dark or black screen does not exceed 8 (no more than 5 may be green). High-level bright dots (red or green) are not to be within 1 inch (2.54 cm) of each other, and low-level bright dots (blue) are not to be within 0.60 inch of each other.
