Unpacking and handling tips

The Dome E2c display is a precision instrument that requires proper care to maintain product operation and adherence to specification. Unpack the display and components carefully, then set up and handle the unit properly to avoid damage to the LCD panel.

•Use both hands to grasp the display case when lifting it from the shipping carton, but avoid touching the screen.

•Do not apply pressure to the screen or touch the screen with bare fingers or objects. Pressure can affect image quality. Cosmetics and oils on the skin are both detrimental to the screen and difficult to remove.

•Allow the display to warm up to room temperature before turning it on. Avoid sudden temperature changes in the environment, as this may cause condensation, which damages the display.

•Secure the display properly onto a standard VESA 100-mm mounting unit if you elect not to use the desk stand.

•Do not set up the display near strong light or heat sources.

•Do not block the vents on the back of the display or install the display in a built-in enclosure. Blocked vents cause excessive heat to build up inside the display, increasing risk of fire.

•When installing components, turn off your computer, but leave it plugged into a grounded outlet.

•Do not remove the back cover or disassemble the display. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

Preventing fire and injury

•Replace the power supply or cables if damaged.

•Use only the power source indicated in this guide or listed on the display.

•Do not plug the power supply into an overloaded AC outlet or extension cord. Overloaded AC outlets and cords can result in electric shock or fire.

•Do not drop or push objects into the display case. Internal components contain high voltage.

•Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet during thunderstorms.

•Do not place magnetic devices, such as motors, near the display.
