1.2 Precautions when using this monitor 
1. To avoid eye fatigue, do not use the color monitor with a bright background, 
in direct sunlight or where other light sources shine directly on the screen. 
2. Do not place the monitor near a heat source. 
3. Set up in a well-ventilated environment and ensure that the ventilation 
openings of the monitor are not covered so that heat from the monitor can 
dissipate properly. 
4. Keep the monitor away from high-capacity transformers, electric motors and 
other strong magnetic fields. 
5. The monitor should not be used in a damp, dusty or dirty area. 
1.3 Pedestal base (Fig. 1) 
The pedestal base tilts and swivels the monitor and enables you to place the 
monitor in a convenient position for best viewing comfort. 
1.4 How to install/remove the pedestal base (Fig. 2) 
To attach the pedestal base to the monitor: 
1. Carefully turn the monitor on its side or upside down. 
2. Locate the slots on the bottom of the monitor. 
3. Insert pegs “a” on the pedestal base into these slots. Push the base firmly 
toward the front of the unit until the latch “b” on the bottom of the monitor 
clicks in to place. This locks the pedestal base on. 
4. To remove the pedestal base, use a blunt tool, such as a blade screwdriver, 
to push the latch down firmly and pull the base backwards from the main 
unit until the base is removed.
