About the LCD
The liquid-crystal display panel is manufactured using high-precision technology. However, it may
have a small number of unlit pixels and/or always lit pixels. You may also see distortion in colors
or brightness, depending on your perspective. This is a normal condition for LCDs and does not
indicate a malfunction. Sony Corporation will not replace or accept the return of the product due to
such conditions.
Exposing the LCD to direct sunlight may cause damage. Take care when using the unit near a
window or outdoors.
