Import Tips
• Verify the video display diagonal measurement across the visible faceplate does not exceed 34.29 cm using official U.S. note methods; obtain manufacturer certification confirming high definition specs (16:9 aspect, >700 lines)
• Ensure proper phosphor imprinting documentation to avoid reclassification as unfinished parts
