mNever remove the case from the monitor, or remove the core from your computer when it’s running.

mDuring lightning storms, disconnect your modem from the phone jack to prevent a destructive voltage overload from damaging the modem.

Your computer is equipped with a three-wire grounding plug—a plug that has a third grounding pin. This is a safety feature. Don’t modify the plug to fit into an ungrounded outlet. Contact a licensed electrician to replace the outlet with a properly grounded one. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding plug!

Be careful when lifting or moving your monitor, if it’s heavy. Be sure to use correct lifting procedures, lifting with your legs. When carrying the monitor, make sure the monitor is facing you. Don’t carry the monitor by its stand.

Electrical equipment may be hazardous if misused. Operation of this product by children must always be supervised by an adult. Do not allow children access to the interior of any electrical product and do not permit them to handle electrical cables

General Maintenance

If you need to clean the computer or display beyond wiping them down with a clean cloth, follow these instructions:

1Turn your computer and display off.

2Disconnect the computer power cable from the electrical outlet or power strip. If your display has a power cable connected to an outlet, disconnect it as well.

3Disconnect the display’s cables from the computer.

4Clean the display screen with soft, lint-free paper or cloth dampened with mild soap and water.

Warning Do not spray liquid directly onto the display screen. Liquid could drip inside the display and cause electrical shock.

5Wipe the computer or display case surfaces lightly with a clean, soft cloth dampened with water.

Don’t use alcohol, aerosol sprays, solvents, or abrasives that might damage the finish on the case.
