Safety precautions and maintenance
WARNING: Use of controls, adjustments or procedures other than
those specified in this documentation may result in exposure to shock,
electrical hazards and/or mechanical hazards.
Read and follow these instructions when connecting and using your computer monitor:
● To protect your display from possible damage, do not put excessive pressure on the LCD
panel. When moving your monitor, grasp the frame to lift; do not lift the monitor by
placing your hand or fingers on the LCD panel.
● Unplug the monitor if you are not going to use it for an extensive period of time.
● Unplug the monitor if you need to clean it with a slightly damp cloth. The screen may be
wiped with a dry cloth when the power is off. However, never use alcohol, solvents or
ammonia-based liquids.
● Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally when you have
followed the instructions in this manual.
● The casing cover should be opened only by qualified service personnel.
● Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight and away from stoves or any other heat source.
● Remove any object that could fall into the vents or prevent proper cooling of the monitor’s
electronics.
● Do not block the ventilation holes on the cabinet.
● Keep the monitor dry. To avoid electric shock, do not expose it to rain or excessive
moisture.
● When positioning the monitor, make sure the power plug and outlet are easily accessible.
● If turning off the monitor by detaching the power cable or DC power cord, wait for 6
seconds before attaching the power cable or DC power cord for normal operation.
● To avoid the risk of shock or permanent damage to the set, do not expose the monitor to
rain or excessive moisture.
● IMPORTANT: Always activate a screen saver program during your application. If a still
image in high contrast remains on the screen for an extended period of time, it may leave
an 'after-image' or 'ghost image' on front of the screen. This is a well-known phenomenon
that is caused by the shortcomings inherent in LCD technology. In most cases, the
afterimage will disappear gradually over a period of time after the power has been
switched off. Be aware, that the afterimage symptom cannot be repaired and is not
covered under warranty.
● Warning for lifting monitor - Do not use the area underneath the logo cover to grip or lift
the monitor. Placing weight on the logo cover can cause it to break away from the body
and cause the monitor to fall. When lifting the monitor, place one hand under the
monitor's frame.
