DONE BY FOUR OR MORE PEOPLE. Failure to follow
this caution may result in injury if the LCD monitor falls.
• Donotmountoroperatethemonitorupsidedown.
NOTE: This monitor has internal temperature sensors and
cooling fans, including a fan for the Option Board.
If the monitor becomes too hot, the cooling fans
will turn on automatically.
The Option Board’s fan is active although the
temperature is lower than normal operating
temperature for cooling the Option Board. If the
monitor becomes overheated while the cooling
fan is running, a “Caution” warning appears. If the
“Caution” warning appears, stop using the unit,
turn off the power and allow it to cool. Using the
cooling fans will reduce the likelihood of early unit
failure and may help reduce image degradation
and “Image Persistance”.
CAUTION: If the monitor is used in an enclosed area or
if the LCD panel is covered with a protective
screen, please check the inside temperature
of the monitor by using the “HEAT STATUS”
control in the OSD (see page 41). If the
temperature is higher than the normal
operating temperature, please turn the
cooling fan to ON within the FAN CONTROL
menu within the OSD (see page 41).
IMPORTANT: To avoid scratching the LCD panel, always
place a soft cloth, such as a blanket that is
larger than the monitor’s screen area, on the
table before laying the monitor face down.
2. Install the remote control batteries

Connections
NOTE: Do not connect or disconnect cables when turning on the monitor’s main power or other external equipment’s power
as this may result in a loss of image.
NOTE: Do not use an attenuating (built-in resistor) audio cable. Use an audio cable without a built-in resistor. Using an audio
cable with a built-in resistor will lower the sound level.
Before making connections:
* Turn off the device’s power before connecting it to the monitor.
* Refer to the device’s user manual for available connection types and instructions for the device.
* We recommend turning off the monitor’s main power before connecting or disconnecting a USB storage device or a microSD
