without anchoring both the furniture and the to a suitable support.
⚫Do not let children climb on furniture to reach its controls.
⚫Do not use immediately after moving from a low temperature to a high
temperature environment, as this causes condensation, which may result in fire, electric
shock, or other hazards.

CAUTIONS
⚫Please use this product’s standard power cable instead of other types to avoid
burning the monitor and cause a safety risk.
⚫In case of electric shock, the back cover should not be opened by non-technical
maintenance staff.
⚫Before operation, please check the compatibility between the local voltage and the
monitor’s rated voltage. If the monitor will not be used for a long period, the user should
remove the plug from the power socket.
⚫Please use a single-phase power supply socket and make sure the earth wire is well
connected.
⚫Do not install or put the machine near places with a heat source such as hot stoves,
heat-transfer tubes, power amplifiers, sources of direct strong light, dust, high humidity,
and places with mechanical vibration. To achieve better performance, please keep the
monitor away from high voltage distribution networks, large metal objects, radar
stations, etc.
⚫If an abnormal sound and smell appear, cut off the power supply and unplug the
device immediately. Stop using it and ask technical staff to resolve the problems.
⚫If the monitor will not be used for a long time, please unplug the power cable for
safety.
⚫Avoid liquid and metal entering the device. If any liquid or metal falls into the device,
please shut the monitor down and cut off the power supply immediately and contact
technical maintenance personnel to repair it.
⚫Do not use chemical reagent to wipe the machine, solvent may cause deterioration
or damage to the paint surface. Disconnect the power supply and wipe it with a cloth if
there is dust or dirt. Use a clean, soft cloth to wipe the screen gently.

⚫Do not switch off/on the device frequently in a short time in case that it will affect
the lifetime of the interactive touch monitor. After the normal shutdown, please wait
about three minutes or longer before turning on the device.
⚫To extend the service life of the LCD screen, please do not set display brightness and
contrast to the maximum value for long periods.
⚫Don't place the interactive touch monitor on an unstable stand, bracket, or table,
otherwise, the monitor may fall and cause damage.
⚫Take care when moving the interactive touch monitor to avoid being hit, squeezed,
etc. Particularly pay attention to the protection of the screen part to avoid the glass
breaking and causing damage.
⚫You should follow the manufacturer's instructions and use the manufacturer’s
recommended installation accessories when installing the device.
⚫The best distance between the eyes of the viewer and listener and the screen is 5 to
7 times of screen diagonal.
⚫If wall mounting in a normal cement wall, solid wall or wood wall ensure it can
withstand three times the weight or more of the interactive touch display and please
ensure good ventilation condition; For the mounting on a special wall (such as steel
structure wall, hollow structure, glass, marble, etc.), it is recommended that you must
evaluate force bearing of the wall first.
⚫Avoid the interactive touch monitor being exposed to direct sunlight, as it will
accelerate the interactive touch monitor aging, and may cause abnormalities of the
touch device.
⚫When writing on the screen, please do not use hard or sharp objects instead of a
writing pen.
⚫Take a 10-minute break after watching for 30 minutes. Children under two years
should not watch the screen. Children above two years old should not watch the screen
for more than an hour a day.

DEVICE INSTALLATION
The mounting bracket should use the rack or mount that is designated by the
manufacturer. If the mounting bracket is not from the manufacturer, the bearing
capacity should be ensured not less than 4 times its actual bearing weight. The bearing
capacity of the support for bearing the mount should not be less than 4 times its actual
bearing weight, and ensure the interactive monitor is stable.
The mounting surface for the interactive monitor should be firm with enough bearing
capacity and should not be less than 4 times its actual bearing weight. When the
mounting surface is the wall or rooftop of buildings, it must be solid brick, concrete, or
another strong equivalent mounting surface. If the mounting surface is made of loose
materials (old building brick wall, wood, solid brick wall…), metal or non-metal
structures, or the decoration layer of the mounting surface is too thick, the strength of

the surface is deficient and corresponding reinforcement and support measures should
be taken to avoid a safety hazard.
