properties, ensuring clear visibility even in bright sunlight. This technology mimics
the appearance of traditional ink print on paper, yet it achieves this eect through
electronic means, displaying ink particles electronically.
NOTE
Occasionally, you may observe a brief screen flash; this is a normal aspect of the
content refresh process, which keeps your Device's display up-to-date and free
from any residual images.

Recommendations for use
NOTICE
• If you plan not to use the Device for a long period of time, make sure that the
Device is disconnected from the AC power source. Be aware that when the
Device is in standby mode the electric current is still flowing through the unit.
• Do not overload the top of the device with weights exceeding 30 kg.
• When frequent transient states and impulse distractions in the power line happen,
distractions on output connectors may occur. Those interferences may impact
audio signal amplification quality and can generate sound distortions. When
distractions on the power line end, the device returns to normal operation.
• If the electrostatic discharge goes to the input jacks (RCA connectors), the
standard operation of the Device can be disturbed. When the electrostatic
discharge ends, the Device is back to normal operation without your intervention.
• For proper operation of the device, it is not recommended to use connection
cables longer than 3 m.
