Important Safety Information
The power cord is designed for use with your monitor. To use a different cord, use only a power source and
connection compatible with this monitor. For information on the correct power cord set to use with your monitor, see
Power Cord Set Requirements
.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment, do not disable the power cord
grounding feature. The grounding plug is an important safety feature. Connect the equipment to a grounded
(earthed) power outlet.
For your safety, be sure that the grounded power outlet you plug the power cord into is easily accessible to
the operator and located as close to the equipment as possible. To disconnect power from the equipment,
unplug the power cord from the power outlet by grasping the plug firmly. Never pull on the cord.
Before connecting cables, disconnect power from the monitor by unplugging the power cord from the
electrical outlet.
Do not place anything on power cords or cables. Arrange them so that no one can accidentally step on or trip
over them. Do not pull on a cord or cable. When unplugging from the electrical outlet, grasp the cord by its
plug.
CAUTION: To protect your monitor, as well as your computer, connect all power cords for your computer and
its peripheral devices (such as a monitor, printer, or scanner) to a surge protection device such as a power
strip with surge protection or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
Not all power strips provide surge protection; the power strips must be specifically labeled as having this
ability. Use a power strip whose manufacturer offers a damage replacement policy so you can replace your
equipment if surge protection fails.
Safety Precautions
CAUTION: Avoid applying pressure to the LCD screen; doing so can cause damage.
y Use only a power source and connection compatible with this monitor, as indicated on the label/back plate
of the monitor.
y Be sure the total ampere rating of the products connected to the outlet does not exceed the current rating
of the electrical outlet, and the total ampere rating of the products connected to the cord does not exceed
the rating of the cord. Look on the power label to determine the ampere rating (Amps or A) for each device.
