Not doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
To disconnect the power cord, grasp the plug firmly and pull.
Tugging on the cord may damage and result in fire or electric shock.
The equipment must be connected to a grounded main outlet.
Not doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
Use the correct voltage.
* The unit is designed for use with a specific voltage only. Connection to
another voltage than specified in this User's Manual may cause fire, electric
shock, or equipment damage.
* Do not overload your power circuit, as this may result in fire or electric
shock.
Handle the power cord with care.
* Do not place the cord underneath the unit or other heavy objects.
* Do not pull on or tie the cord.
If the power cord becomes damaged, stop using it. Use of a damaged cord

white to decrease the prints.
Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects, such as a
pencil or pen as this may result in damage to the panel. Do not attempt to
brush with tissues as this may scratch the LCD panel.
When the screen image is changed after displaying the same image for
extended periods of time, an afterimage may appear. Use the screen saver
or timer to avoid displaying the same image for extended periods of time.
