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:

●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 after- image will disappear gradually over a period of time after the power has been switched off. Be aware, that the after-image symptom cannot be repaired and is not covered under warranty.

Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally when the operating instructions given in this manual have been followed.
