CAUTION
•Disconnect the power cord first, and then move or install the monitor. Otherwise, it may result in electric shock.
•If the monitor is installed on a ceiling or inclined wall, it may fall and result in injury.
•Damage to the monitor by tightening the screws too tightly may void your warranty.
•Use screws and wall mount plates conforming to VESA standards. Breakage or personal injury due to use or misuse
of inappropriate components is not covered by the warranty of this product.
NOTE

ENGLISH
Securing the monitor to a wall (optional)
(Depending on model)
1 Insert and tighten the eyebolts, or brackets and bolts on the back of the monitor.
- If there are already bolts inserted in the eyebolts’ position, remove the other bolts first.
2 Mount the wall brackets with the bolts to the wall. Match the location of the wall bracket and the eyebolts on the
rear of the monitor.
3 Connect the eyebolts and wall brackets tightly with a sturdy cord.
Make sure the securing cord is horizontal with the flat surface.
WARNING
•If the monitor is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, there is a danger that it will fall. Many injuries,
particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:
- Only using furniture that can safely support the monitor.
- Ensuring the monitor is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
- Not placing the monitor on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the
furniture and the monitor to a suitable support.
- Not placing cloth or other materials between the monitor and supporting furniture.
- Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the monitor or its controls.
CAUTION
•Make sure that children do not climb on or hang from the monitor.
NOTE
•Use a platform or cabinet that is large and strong enough to support the monitor securely.
•Brackets, bolts, and cords are sold separately. You can obtain additional accessories from your local retail store.
•The illustration shows a general example of installation and may look different from the actual product.

Safety and Precaution Guide for Installation
During installation, ensure any conductive materials (metals, etc.) do not enter through the gaps or vent holes between
the panel and the back cover.
- Covering the back of the product with a cloth may prevent foreign substances from entering the product and causing
malfunction.
- Make sure to remove the cloth after the installation is complete.

•Make sure to level the sets before tightening the tiling guide; doing so when the set axis is rotated may cause
damage to the panel.

17
ENGLISH
NOTE
•The load applied to each set should be supported by the wall mount plate or the wall using a VESA wall mount
(600x400).
•The load applied to each set should be supported by the wall mount plate using a VESA wall mount. (Each set must
be firmly mounted to the wall mount plate or the wall.)
•You may mount the set without using the tiling guide; this does not affect the performance of the device.
•The screws are enclosed with the other components in the box, including the tiling guides.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Dust
The warranty will not cover any damage caused by using the product in an excessively dusty environment.
Afterimage
•After-image appears when the product is turned off.
- Pixels may be damaged rapidly if a still image is displayed on the screen for a long period of time. Use the screen-
saver function.
- Switching from a screen with high differences in luminance (black and white or grey) to a darker screen may cause
an afterimage. This is normal due to the display characteristics of this product.
•When the LCD screen is in a still pattern for extended periods of use, a slight voltage difference may occur between
the electrodes that operate the liquid crystal (LC). The voltage difference between the electrodes increases over time
and tends to keep the liquid crystal aligned in one direction. At this time, the previous image remains, which is called
an afterimage.
•Afterimages do not occur when continuously changing images are used but take place when a certain screen is fixed
for a long time. The following are operational recommendations for reducing the occurrence of afterimages when
using a fixed screen. The maximum recommended time for switching the screen is 12 hours. Shorter cycles are better
for preventing afterimages.

19
ENGLISH
•Recommended Usage Condition
1 Change the background colour and text colour at equal intervals.
- Afterimages occur less when the colours to be changed are complementary to one another.

the screen change.
