Safety Precautions and Maintenance
FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, PLEASE NOTE THE
FOLLOWING WHEN SETTING UP AND USING
• DO NOT OPEN THE MONITOR. There are no user serviceable parts inside and opening or
removing covers may expose you to dangerous shock hazards or other risks. Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel.
• Do not spill any liquids into the cabinet or use your monitor near water.
• Do not insert objects of any kind into the cabinet slots, as they may touch dangerous voltage
points, which can be harmful or fatal or may cause electric shock, fire or equipment failure.
• Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord. Damage to the cord may cause shock or fire.
• Do not place this product on a sloping or unstable cart, stand or table, as the monitor may fall,
causing serious damage to the monitor.
• Keep the monitor away from high capacity transformers, electric motors and other devices such as
external speakers or fans, which may create strong magnetic fields.
• If possible, position the monitor so that it is facing the east to minimize the effects of the earth's
magnetic field.
• Changing the direction of the monitor while it is powered on may cause image discoloration. To
correct this, turn the monitor off for 20 minutes before powering it back on.
• When operating the monitor with its AC 125-240V worldwide power supply, use a power supply
cord that matches the power supply voltage of the AC power outlet being used. The power supply
cord you use must have been approved by and comply with the safety standards of your country.
• In UK, use a BS-approved power cord with molded plug having a black (5A) fuse installed for use
with this monitor. If a power cord is not supplied with this monitor, please contact your supplier.
• Do not place any objects onto the monitor and do not use the monitor outdoors.
Cleaning Your Monitor
A special coating is provided on the glass (CRT) surface of this monitor to reduce a reflection and
static electricity on the glass surface. Due to the delicate coating on the glass surface, use a lint-free,
non-abrasive cloth (cotton or equivalent) and a non-alcohol, neutral, non-abrasive cleaning solution
to minimize dust. If the screen requires more than a light cleaning, apply a soft neutral detergent and
water directly to a soft cloth and use it upon wringing water, to clean the glass surface. Clean your
monitor regularly.
CAUTION: The following agents will cause damage to the CRT when cleaning the glass surface:
Benzene, thinner, acid/alkaline detergent, alcohol detergent, detergent with abrasive powder,
detergent with anti-static agent, detergent for cleaning.
Immediately unplug your monitor from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel
under the following conditions:
• Do not bend power cord.
• Do not use monitor in high temperature, humid, dusty, or oily areas.
• If glass is broken, handle with care.
• Do not cover vent on monitor.
• If monitor or glass is broken, do not come in contact with the liquid crystal and handle with care.
• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
• If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the monitor.
• If the monitor has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the monitor has been dropped or the cabinet damaged.
• If the monitor does not operate normally by following operating instructions.
• Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor so that heat can properly
dissipate. Do not block ventilated openings or place the monitor near a
radiator or other heat sources. Do not put anything on top of monitor.
• The power cable connector is the primary means of detaching the system
from the power supply. The monitor should be installed close to a power
