Getting Started
Precautions
Installation
• Prevent internal heat buildup by allowing adequate air
circulation. Do not place the monitor on surfaces (rugs,
blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that
may block the ventilation holes.
• Do not install the monitor near heat sources such as
radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.
• Do not place the monitor near equipment which generates
magnetism, such as a transformer or high voltage power
lines.
Handling the LCD screen
• Bright points of light (red, blue or green) may appear
on the LCD screen. This is not a malfunction. The LCD
screen is made with high-precision technology and
more than 99.99 % of the picture element is intact.
However, some of the picture element may not
appear or some of the picture element may appear
constantly.
• Do not leave the LCD screen facing the sun as it can
damage the LCD screen. Take care when you place the
monitor by a window.
• Do not push or scratch the LCD screen. Do not place a
heavy object on the LCD screen. This may cause the
screen to lose uniformity.
• If the monitor is used in a cold place, a residual image
may appear on the screen. This is not a malfunction.
When the monitor becomes warm, the screen returns to
normal.
• If a still picture is displayed for a long time, a residual
image may appear. The residual image will eventually
disappear.
• The screen and the cabinet become warm during
operation. This is not a malfunction.
Replacement of the fluorescent tube
A specially designed fluorescent tube is installed as the
lighting apparatus for this monitor. If the LCD screen
