LCD Panel Bright/Dark Dot Warranty & Regulation

Since LCD panel is made up of millions of micro electronic pixels, if one pixel no longer functions normally, it will become a bright or dark dot. By ISO 13406-2 standards, ASUS conforms to the acceptance level between 3 to 5 defective bright/dark pixels. In order to deliver ultimate vision experience to ASUS customer, if your panel is less than or equal to the above number of dots, then, it is considered as an acceptable LCD monitor.In addition, the Premium Range of ASUS LCDs offers a unique Zero Bright Dot (ZBD) warranty.Please refer to ASUS LCD Monitor Bright/Dark Dot Warranty Table below.

TAKING CARE OF YOUR LCD:

Turn off the LCD if you will not use it for a long time. Doing this will help you save electric power consumption and prolong your LCD's life.
Do not touch the LCD with your fingers, sharp, and/or hard object so as not to scratch the LCD.
Use monitor-cleaning sheet to lightly wipe off dirt from the LCD. Do not use your fingers!
Do not use any chemicals or detergents to clean the LCD.
Use screen saver to avoid the damage caused by long-term static (non-moving) images displayed.
