This is a characteristic of liquid crystal panels and is 
not a problem. The liquid crystal panel is built with very 
high precision technology giving you fi ne picture details. 
Occasionally, a few non-active pixels may appear on the 
screen as a fi xed point of blue, green, or red.
Please note this does not affect the performance of your 
LCD.
