Please read and follow these instructions
when connecting and using your
computer monitor.
1Before connecting the AC power cord to an outlet, make sure the
voltage designation on your monitor
corresponds to the local electrical
supply.
2Never insert anything metallic into the monitor openings. Doing so may
create the danger of electric shock.
3To avoid electric shock, never touch the inside of the monitor.
Only a qualified technician should
open the monitor’s case.
4Never use your monitor if the power cord has been damaged. Do not
allow anything to rest on the power
cord, and keep the cord away from
where people could trip over it.
5Be sure to hold the plug, not the cord, when disconnecting the
monitor from an electric socket.
6Openings in the monitor cabinet are provided for ventilation. To prevent
overheating, these openings should
not be blocked or covered. Also,
avoid using the monitor on a bed,
sofa, rug, or other soft surface.
Doing so may block the ventilation
openings in the bottom of the
cabinet. If you put the monitor in a
bookcase or some other enclosed
space, be sure to provide adequate
ventilation.
7Put your monitor in a location with low humidity and a minimum of
dust. Avoid places like damp
basements or dusty hallways.
8Do not expose the monitor to rain or use it near water (In kitchens, next
to swimming pools, etc.). If the
monitor accidentally gets wet,
unplug it and contact an authorized
dealer immediately. You can clean
the monitor with a damp cloth when
necessary, but be sure to unplug
the monitor first.
9Place the monitor on a solid surface and treat it carefully. The screen is
made of glass and can be damaged
if dropped or sharply hit.
10Locate your monitor near an easily accessible AC outlet.
11If your monitor does not operate normally – in particular, if there
are any unusual sounds or smells
coming from it – unplug it
immediately and contact an
authorized dealer or service center.
12High temperatures can cause problems. Don’t use your monitor
in direct sunlight, and keep it away
from heaters, stoves, fireplaces,
and other sources of heat.
13Unplug the monitor when it is going to be left unused for an
extended period of time.
14Unplug your monitor from the AC outlet before any service.
15This product has adopted the newly developed DynaFlat CDT (Color
Display Tube) with a surface treated
with High contrast Multi - Layer Film
for a high quality images. Never use
sharp, rough or metallic substances
to clean the screen.
