Swedish term or phrase: "som ligger utanför leverantörens riktlinjer "
I was asked to reformulate my translation of this phrase into Polish. Could you help me, by giving an English equivalent, I can't figure what was wrong with the Polish wording....
Skada på plasma- och LCD-skärmar som innebär att bildpunkter slocknat och som ligger utanför leverantörens riktlinjer alternativt skada av typen att bilden ”bräntfryst fast”.

English translation:that exceed the manufacturer's guidelines
Explanation:
Refers to the minimum permissible number of pixels that can be faulty when supplied.
"exceeds" seems more natural English and "manufacturer's" is what we're talking about rather than "supplier's".

Of course, "damage that falls outside the supplier's guidelines" is what the text says, but the only damage I recognise here is pixels that are permanently on (i.e. "frozen") or off. What the point of "burnt/frozen" rather than "frozen"?

Explanation:
This is how I'd write it, in the hope that 'guidelines' is OK in insurance terminology. Based on own experience of legal documents.
