LCD Pixel Policy
The LCD screen on your ARCHOS™ AV 500 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 AV 500 screen will have no more than 2 defective pixel
(regardless if these pixels have 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 three or more defective pixels, ARCHOS™ will repair
or replace your AV 500 product at its cost. Thus, two or less defective pixels is not grounds for replacement or
repair of the product.
Environmental Considerations
Protection of the environment is an important concern to ARCHOS™. In order to put this concern into tangible
actions, ARCHOS™ has consciously included a set of methods that favor a respect for the environment into the
entire cycle of its products; from fabrication to consumer usage, to fi nal disposal.
Batteries : If your product contains a detachable battery pack, you should only dispose of it in a designated
collection point for used batteries.
The Product : The crossed-out garbage can symbol on your product signifi es that it falls into the category of
electric/electronic equipment. Products of this type contain substances that are potentially dangerous to the
environment and to human health. Therefore, you should not dispose of the ARCHOS electronic device in a
regular trash. As such, the current European directives ask that this device be collected:
- At places of distribution in the case of a purchase of a similar electronic product.
- At locally created disposal areas (waste disposal centers, sorted trash system, etc.)
By doing this, you are actively participating in the reuse and recycling of disposed electronic and
electric equipment that could have potential effects on the environment and human health.
