Tips and safety precautions
•
Under certain display conditions, minute specks or
spots may be noticeable. This is common for liquid
crystal monitors and is not a malfunction.
•
The LCD panel has been manufactured using highly
elaborate technology. Properly working pixels
comprise 99.99% of total pixels. However, please
understand that 0.01% or less of pixels may be
missing or be brighter than usual.
•
Do not leave the screen displaying idly for long
periods of time, as this could cause afterimage to
remain.
•
If the brightness is adjusted to the minimum setting it
may be difficult to see the screen.
•
The quality of the computer signal may influence the
quality of the display. We recommend using a
computer able to emit high quality video signals.
•
Never rub or tap the monitor with hard objects.
•
Please understand that Sharp Corporation bears no
responsibility for errors made during use by the
customer or a third party, nor for any other
malfunctions or damage to this product arising during
use, except where indemnity liability is recognized
under law.
•
This monitor and its accessories may be upgraded
without advance notice.
Location
•
Do not use the monitor where ventilation is poor,
where there is a lot of dust, where humidity is high, or
where the monitor may come into contact with oil or
steam, as this could lead to fire.
•
Ensure that the monitor does not come into contact
with water or other fluids. Ensure that no objects such
as paper clips or pins enter the monitor as this could
lead to fire or electric shock.
•
Do not place the monitor on top of unstable objects or
in unsafe places. Do not allow the monitor to come
into contact with strong shocks or vibrations. Causing
the monitor to fall or topple over may damage it.
•
Do not use in places where the monitor will be
subject to direct sunlight, near heating equipment or
anywhere else where there is likelihood of high
temperature, as this may lead to generation of
excessive heat and outbreak of fire.
The Power Cord
•
Do not damage the power cord or place heavy
objects on it, stretch it or overly bend it. Also, do not
add extension cords. Damage to the cord may result
in fire or electric shock.
•
Use only the AC adapter and power cord supplied
with the monitor. Using an AC adapter other than that
supplied may lead to fire.
•
Insert the power plug directly into the AC outlet.
Adding an extension cord may lead to fire as a result
of overheating.
