Cautions for Rack-Mount.
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a
closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment
may be greater than room ambient. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the
equipment in an environment compatible with the
maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified
by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the
equipment in a rack should be such that the
amount of air flow required for safe operation of
the equipment is not compromised.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the
equipment in the rack should be such that a
hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven
mechanical loading.
D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be
given to the connection of the equipment to the
supply circuit and the effect that overloading of
the circuits might have on overcurrent protection
and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of
equipment nameplate ratings should be used
when addressing this concern.
E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of
rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
Particular attention should be given to supply
connections other than direct connections to the
branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

Precautions Upon Use
In order to use the monitor safely, read through this manual and pay attention to the following points in
particular.
1. Do not use any power supply other than the specified one (AC).
2. Do not give a shock to the monitor.
Be very careful to keep the monitor from shocks because glass is used inside the LCD.
3. Do not use or store the monitor in the following places.
Place where the ambient temperature is out of spec
When installing the monitor on a monitor shelf, switcher table, rack, etc., make sure in advance that the
temperature of the installation location is within the specified range.
In the case of an outdoor setup, even if the ambient temperature is within the specified range, the inside of
the monitor may be heated by direct sunlight. Therefore, keep radiation in mind. (Avoid direct sunlight.)
Never block the air outlet at the rear of the monitor and the air inlet at the side. Make sure in particular
that a blackout curtain or the like does not block the air outlet.
Place exposed to rain, snow or high humidity
Use of the monitor in such a place will cause electric leakage or failure.
4. Avoid exposing the LCD screen to direct sunlight.
Exposure of the LCD screen to direct sunlight for a long time will degrade the film. Therefore be careful of
direct sunlight when using the monitor outdoors.
5. Cautions in handling the front protective panel
Be careful not to touch the LCD panel front surface with bare hands, unless necessary. When wiping the
dust off the surface, use soft, dry cloth and take care not to rub the surface strongly. Do not use thinner or
benzene.
6. Do not touch liquid crystal leaked from the monitor's display surface.
If the monitor's display surface is accidentally broken and the liquid crystal leaks, be careful never to put
the liquid in your mouth, inhale it and allow it on your skin. If the liquid gets into your eye or mouth,
immediately rinse it with water and get medical attention.
If the liquid contacts your skin or clothes, immediately wipe it off using alcohol or the like and wash the
stained spot with soap and water. Do not leave the liquid intact, because otherwise your skin or clothes may
be affected.
7. Do not display the same pattern for a long time.
Note that residual image may be generated if the same pattern is displayed for a long time.
・Turn off the power when the monitor is not used.
To avoid residual images, preferably take the following measures.
・Change the screen regularly.
・Display the whole screen in white.
8. Avoid operation at low temperatures.
Note that the backlight function will be degraded at low temperatures, leading to shorter service life. It is
recommended to use the monitor at normal temperatures.

9. Avoid operation or storage in a place exposed to corrosive gas.
Operation or storage in a place where any corrosive gas such as sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide,
chlorine or ammonia is generated may lead to a significant reduction in the monitor service life. It may
also cause failure or electric leakage.
Also avoid using the monitor in a location exposed to high salty wind.
10.Do not use this monitor for such applications as space appliance, nuclear control system as any
medical equipment involving human life.
Quality of LCD panel
Note that because the LCD panel mounted on the monitor is manufactured through the use of
high-precision technology, 99.99% or more of the pixels are effective, but 0.01% or less of them may be
lacking in brightness or lit up constantly.
Internal fan
The internal fan does not run constantly but automatically starts running when the internal
temperature of the monitor rises. When the environmental temperature is low, the internal fan may not
be running, which indicates no fault condition.
At power-on, the fan rotates for a moment for checking its own performance.
In the case of outdoor use, even if the ambient temperature is low, the fan may start running when the
internal temperature of the monitor rises.
Suppose that the fan does not operate properly at power-on or at high temperatures. In such case, the
message "FAN ERROR!" will appear at the top of the screen.
The brightness of the backlight may be reduced in order to keep the internal temperature of the motor
from rising.
If the message "FAN ERROR!" is displayed, contact your dealer or Ikegami service desk.
