Before connecting the AC power cord to the DC adapter outlet, make sure the voltage
designation of the DC adapter corresponds to the local electrical supply.
2
Never insert anything metallic into the cabinet openings of the liquid crystal display (LCD)
TV/Monitor; doing so may create the danger of electric shock.
3
To avoid electric shock, never touch the inside of the LCD TV/Monitor. Only a qualified
technician should open the case of the LCD TV/Monitor.
4
Never use your LCD TV/Monitor if the power cord has been damaged. Do not allow
anything to rest on the power cord, and keep the cord away from areas where people can
trip over it.
5
Be sure to hold the plug, not the cord, when disconnecting the LCD TV/Monitor from an
electric socket.
6
Openings in the LCD TV/Monitor cabinet are provided for ventilation. To prevent
overheating, these openings should not be blocked or covered. Also, avoid using the LCD
