Introduction

Note
• Periodically replace the intake vent filter at the lower part of the product.
• Length of the replacement cycle may vary depending on the fine dust concentration (PM-10) in
the location of installation. Refer to the table below.
• Fine dust (PM-10): Tiny particles that are very thin with a diameter of 10 or less

• If you do not know the dust concentration in the area of installation, it is recommended that you
replace the filter before summer begins every year.
• Especially in a location exposed to a lot of dust, the filter must be replaced at least every 6
months. A partially dark screen is likely a result of the filter being used longer than the rec-
ommended replacement cycle. Replace the filter immediately.
•In Europe and the United States, the yearly mean dust concentration is less than 30 and
the recommended replacement cycle is about 21 months. In Korea, the yearly mean dust con-
centration is less than 60 and the recommended replacement cycle is about 11 months.
The dust concentration and recommended replacement cycle may vary according to the location
of installation.
Note
The power switches of both of the monitor and the network box must be turned on for the network box
