IMPORTANT SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
This wide active matrix TFT (thin film transistor) liquid crystal monitor is designed for use as
a stand alone TV as well as a display device for video electronics appliances and personal
computers.

moisture.
The symbol is intended to alert the user to presence ofun-insulated ”Hazardous
Voltage”within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The symbol is intended to alert the user that improper use of the product may
result in product malfunction. The user should pay attention to avoid accidents
or unnecessary problems.
Caution :To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not attempt to disassemble or modify this
device. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer any service issues to
qualified service personnel.
Caution : FCC/ CSA regulations state that any unauthorized changes or modifications to
this equipment may void the user's authority to operate it.
Important: One Federal Court has held that unauthorized recording of copyrighted TV
programs is an infringement of U.S. copyright laws. Certain Canadian programs may also
be copyrighted and any unauthorized recording in whole or in part may be in violation of
these rights.
According to industrial standards for LCD display technology; there are a certain number
of allowable defective pixels. Although we produce panels with more than 99.9% active
cells, there still may be some cells that do not produce light or remain constantly lit. For
further information, please contact sales or technical support.

Safety Precautions
1. Cleaning : Unplug the power cord from the AC outlet before cleaning the product.
Use a damp cloth to clean the product. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
2. Water and moisture : Do not use the product near water or areas of high moisture
content such as swimming pools, bathtubs or wet basements.
3. Ensure that no water droplets remain on the screen. Water can cause permanent
discoloration.
4. Heat sources : Keep the product away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters,
stoves and other heat-generating products (including amplifiers).
5. For added protection during a lightning storm or for extended periods of non-use,
unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna (if used). This
will prevent damage to the product due to power line surges.
6. If an outside antenna is connected to the product, make sure the antenna is
properly grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges.
( Coaxial connector shielding from cable distribution system should be probably
earthed. )

cart, stand, tripod or table. Placing the product
on an unstable base can cause the product to
fall, resulting in serious personal injuries as
well as damage to the product. Use only a cart,
stand, tripod, bracket or table recommended by
the manufacturer or sold with the product. Use
only mounting hardware recommended by the
manufacturer.
8. Use care when moving the product on a rolling cart. Sudden stops, excessive force
and uneven floor surface can cause the product to fall from the cart.
9. Ventilation : The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designed for
ventilation. Do not cover or block these vents and openings as insufficient ventilation
can cause overheating and/or shorten the life of the product. Do not place the product
on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surfaces since they can block ventilation openings.
This product was not designed to operate in an enclosed environment. Don't place the
product in an enclosed space such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper ventilation is
provided or the manufacturer's instructions are followed.
10. The LCD panel used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break if the
product is dropped or struck.
11. During the LCD panel lifespan it is normal for a few pixels to become defective.
Non-active pixels may appear on the screen as fixed points of red, blue or green.
Refer pixel policy questions to the reseller for further clarification on acceptable loss.
12. An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power
lines or other electrical conduits. When installing an outside antenna, use extreme
caution to prevent the antenna from coming into contact with said items, as contact
with them may be fatal.
