FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q:Will the LCD screen be resistant to scratches?

A:A protective coating is applied to the surface of the LCD, which is durable to a certain extent

(approximately up to the hardness of a 2H pencil). In general, it is recommended that the panel surface is not subjected to any excessive shocks or scratches. An optional protective cover with greater scratch resistance is also available.

Q:How should I clean the LCD surface?

A:For normal cleaning, use a clean, soft cloth. For extensive cleaning, please use isopropyl alcohol. Do not use other solvents such as ethyl alcohol, ethanol, acetone, hexane, etc.

Q:Can the Philips LCD Monitor be mounted on the wall or used as a touch panel?

A:Yes, Philips LCD monitors have this optional feature. The standard VESA mount holes on the

back cover allow the user to mount the Philips monitor on any VESA standard ARM or accessories. Touch panels are being developed for future applications. Check with your Philips sales representative for more information.

Q:When I use a Philips 180MT in a dimly-lit room, I notice areas in the screen which are slightly brighter. This is mainly visible in dark scenes or when the screen is completely black. What is wrong?

A:Philips developed this 18" monitor TV to give very bright images. This is great for TV and movie

viewing. As a result of this, these brighter areas may be visible when the ambient light is very low. Your TV monitor is functioning correctly and has no defect. We recommend that you increase the ambient light slightly so as to make the effect less visible.
