Preventive Maintenance Tasks

M3046A

Preventive maintenance for the Monitor comprises the following activities:
• Perform visual inspection (see"Inspecting the Instrument" on page 122)
• Replace the Backlight Tube Assembly (if required).

Replacing the Backlight Tube Assembly

The intensity of the fluorescent tube used for backlight illumination of the LCD Display
gradually decreases over time. As a result, periodic replacement is necessary.
Philips recommends replacement of the Backlight Tube Assembly after 3 years (20 000
hours) of continuous use or if there is noticeable decrease in the display illumination.
(Display illumination decreases by about half after 3 years of continuous use.) The procedure
for replacing the Backlight Tube Assembly is found in "Repairing the Instrument".
NOTE After fitting new tubes, go to Service Mode and reset the Backlight-Tube counter to zero.
