TFT LCD Displays

The colors of the display may seem to vary when viewed against
a colored background or in colored light. This is a perfectly normal
effect that can be seen with all color Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs).
In common with all Thin Film Transistor (TFT) LCD units, the screen
may exhibit a few (less than 7) wrongly illuminated pixels. These
may appear as black pixels in a light area of the screen or as colored
pixels in black areas.

Although the waterproof rating capacity of Raymarine products
exceeds that called for by the IPX6 standard, water intrusion
