19.7LCD Pixel Policy
The LCD screen on your Archos PMA400 unit has been manufactured to rigorous standards to provide a high quality viewing experience. Nevertheless, your LCD screen may have slight imperfections. This is not particular to the Archos screen, but to all devices which have LCD screens regardless of the original manufacturer of the LCD. Each product vendor guarantees that his screen will contain no more than a certain number of defective pixels. Each screen pixel contains three dot elements (Red, Blue, and Green). One or all of the dots in a given pixel may be stuck on or stuck off. A single dot stuck off is the least noticeable. All three dots of a pixel stuck on is the most noticeable. Archos guarantees that its PMA400 screen will have no more than 1 defective pixel (regardless if that pixel has one or more defective dots). This means that during the period of guarantee for your country or jurisdiction, if the screen on your product has two or more defective pixels, Archos will repair or replace your PMA400 product at its cost. Thus, one defective pixel is not grounds for replacement or repair of the product.
