Our projector uses LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) panels.

These very sophisticated panels contain 519,168 pixels ( × RGB) TFTs (Thin Film Transistors).

As with any high technology electronic equipment such as large screen TVs, video systems and/or video cameras, there are certain acceptable tolerances that the equipment must conform to. Sharp's acceptable tolerances permit a total of 6 inactive TFTs, which may result in illuminated or inactive dots on the picture screen.

This will not affect the picture quality or the life expectancy of the unit.

If you have any questions about this matter, please call toll free 1-800-BE-SHARP (1-800-237-4277).
