PRECAUTIONS
!Do not use the monitor near water, e.g. near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen
sink, laundry tub, swimming pool or in a wet basement.
!Do not place the monitor on an unstable cart, stand, or table. If the
monitor falls, it can injure a person and cause serious damage to the
appliance. Use only a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer or
sold with the monitor. If you mount the monitor on a wall or shelf, use a
mounting kit approved by the manufacturer and follow the kit instructions.
!Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for
ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the monitor and to protect it
from overheating, be sure these openings are not blocked or covered. Do
not place the monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface. Do not place
the monitor near or over a radiator or heat register. Do not place the
monitor in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.
!Do not install the monitor in a location near heat sources such as
radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, or excessive
dust or mechanical vibration or shock.
!The monitor should be operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to
your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
!The monitor is equipped with a three-pronged grounded plug, a plug with
a third (grounding) pin. This plug will fit only into a grounded power outlet
as a safety feature. If your outlet does not accommodate the three-wire
plug, have an electrician install the correct outlet or ground the appliance
safely. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounded plug.
!Unplug the unit during a lightning storm or when it will not be used for long
period of time. This will protect the monitor from damage due to power
surges.

in fire or electric shock.
!Never push any object into the slot on the monitor cabinet. It could short
circuit parts causing a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquids on the
monitor.
!Do not attempt to service the monitor by yourself. Opening or removing
covers can expose you to dangerous voltages and other hazards. Please
refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
!To ensure satisfactory operation, use the monitor only with UL listed
computers which have appropriate configured receptacles marked
between 100 - 240V AC, Min. 5A.
!The wall socket shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily
accessible.

GENERAL NOTES
SPECIAL NOTES ON LCD MONITORS
The following symptoms are normal with LCD monitor and do not indicate a
problem.
•
••
•Due to the nature of the fluorescent light, the screen may flicker during
initial use. Turn off the Power Switch and then turn it on again to make
sure the flicker disappears.
•
••
•You may find slightly uneven brightness on the screen depending on the
desktop pattern you use.
•
••
•The LCD panel used in this monitor is a very high technology product with
3,932,160 thin film transistors giving you fine picture details. Occasionally,
a few non-active pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of red,
green, blue, white or black. Please note that this does not indicate a
defective panel.
•
••
•Due to the nature of the LCD screen, an after-image of the previous
screen may remain after switching the image when the same image has
been displayed for a long time. The monitor will slowly recover from this.
•
••
•LCD monitors have a fixed size & number of pixels. Due to this, an
interpolation is necessary to operate the monitor in a relution below it’s
native resolution which may slightly degrage the display quality.
Therefore, it is highly recommended to operate the monitor at it’s native
resolution of 1280 x 1024 @ 60Hz.
OTHER NOTES
•
••
•The screen surface is very soft. Do not rub, touch or tap the screen
surface with sharp object such as pen or pencil. This contact may scratch
or damage the screen. These damages are not covered under the
warranty.
•
••
•Turn your computer OFF before installing your new monitor. Refer to your
computer manual for the proper shut down procedure.
•
••
•Save the original shipping carton and packing materials, as they will come
in handy if you ever have to ship your monitor.
•
••
•For maximum protection, repackage your monitor as it was originally
packed at the factory.
•
••
•To keep the monitor looking new, periodically clean the case & surface of
the TFT-LCD panel with a soft non-fiberous cloth lightly dampened with a
glass cleaner. Do not use any paper products to clean the screen. Never
spay the glass cleaner directly on the monitor. Never use strong solvents
such as thinner, benzene, or abrasive cleaners, since these will damage
