Safety for You and the m70L

Safety for You and the m70L

This display was designed with safety in mind. If you don’t heed the safety warnings and cautions, you could get hurt. The safety warnings are on stickers in various places in and on the display.

General Safety Precautions

There are some other things you should know related to safety:

WARNING! Wall mounts must be secure.

If the display is hung on a wall, the wall must be strong enough to hold it. The m70L weighs about 163lbs (74kg). Simply mounting it to wallboard or wall paneling won’t be adequate or safe. The mounting method must be capable of holding several times this weight.

Caution: The screen could be damaged by heavy pressure.

Slight pressure on the LCD will cause distortion of the image. Heavier pressure will cause permanent damage. m70Ls should be mounted where viewers cannot touch the screen or insert small objects in the openings that will create hazards by contacting bare conductive parts.

Caution: The front polarizer is soft and subject to scratches from sharp objects.

The polarizer is a thin sheet of film laminated to the outside layer of glass on the LCD screen. Take care when handling items near the screen.
