Handling the Display
•Set up your display on a stable,
level surface away from any direct
light or heat source, but near a
grounded AC outlet.
•Choose a well-ventilated location
with an adequate amount of space.
Do not block the vents on the back
of the display.
•Never lift the display by the desk
stand. Use both hands to lift or
move the display. Avoid touching
the screen.

or with any objects.
•Allow the display unit to reach room
temperature before you power it on.

•Avoid sudden temperature changes
in the environment, as this may cause
condensation in the display.
•Never remove the back cover or
disassemble the display. There are
no user-serviceable parts inside.
•When troubleshooting, check that all
cables are properly connected and
that your computer is turned on or
not in power-saving mode.
•Follow your local governing
ordinance for proper disposal or
recycling of electronic components.
Hand injury may result from misuse of the desk stand when
lowering the display height. Avoid holding the bottom area

Planar Systems to be less than 175 cd/m2, Planar will repair or replace the display at its sole discretion.
•Periodically clean the display housing
with a soft, dry cloth to prevent
clogging of the venting holes with
dust or other material.

damaged by excessive scrubbing
and by incompatible cleaning
solvents. Dampen a clean, soft
lint-free cloth with distilled
de-ionized water and wipe the screen
gently. Use a clean, soft, dry lint-free
cloth to remove any residue.
• To remove grease or other organic
