Notice for this monitor
This product is suited to clinical review. It does not support the display of mammography images for diagnosis.
This product has been adjusted specically for use in the region to which it was originally shipped. If the product is used
outside the region, it may not operate as specied in the specications.
This product may not be covered by warranty for uses other than those described in this manual.
The specications noted in this manual are only applicable for power cords and signal cables specied by us.
Use optional products manufactured or specied by us with this product.
As it takes about 30 minutes for the performance of electrical parts to stabilize, adjust the monitor 30 minutes or more
after the monitor power has been turned on.
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.
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.
Periodic cleaning is recommended to keep the monitor looking new and to prolong its operation lifetime. (Refer to
“Cleaning” on the next page.)
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 xed life span. When the screen becomes dark or begins to icker, please contact
your dealer.
Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this may result in the display malfunction, such as the
interference patterns, etc. If pressure is continually applied to the LCD panel, it may deteriorate or damage your LCD
panel. (If the pressure marks remain on the LCD panel, leave the monitor with a white or black screen. The symptom
may disappear.)
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 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 until dew condensation
disappears, otherwise it may cause some damages to the monitor.
