LCD Panel
In order to suppress the luminosity change by long-term use and to maintain the stable luminosity, use of a
monitor in lower brightness is recommended.
The screen may have defective pixels. These pixels may appear as slightly light or dark area on the screen.
This is due to the characteristics of the panel itself, and not the product.
The backlight of the LCD panel has a fixed life span. When the screen becomes dark or begins to flicker,
please contact your dealer.
Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this may result in damage to the screen. There
will be prints left on the screen if the pressed image is dark or black. If pressure is repeatedly applied to the
screen, it may deteriorate or damage your LCD panel. Leave the screen white to decrease the prints.
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.
When the monitor is cold and brought into a room or the room temperature goes up quickly, dew
condensation may occur inside and outside the monitor. In that case, do not turn the monitor on and wait
