Location Considerations

When setting up and using the monitor, keep the following in mind:

For optimum viewing, avoid placing the monitor against a bright background or where sunlight or other light sources may reflect on the display area of the monitor. Place the monitor just below eye level.

Place the monitor away from strong magnetic or electromag- netic fields, such as high capacity transformers, electric motors, large current power lines, steel pillars, etc....

Magnetism can cause distortion in the picture and/or color purity.

Avoid covering the slots or openings of the monitor. Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor so the heat from the monitor can properly dissipate. Avoid putting the monitor into any enclosure that does not have adequate ventilation.

Avoid exposing the monitor to rain, excessive moisture, or dust, as this can cause a fire or shock hazard.

Avoid placing the monitor, or any other heavy object, on the power cord. Damage to the power cord can cause a fire or electrical shock.

When transporting the monitor, handle it with care.

Cleaning Your Monitor

When cleaning the monitor, please follow these guidelines:

Always unplug the monitor before cleaning.

Wipe the screen and cabinet front and sides with a soft unspoil cloth to prevent causing imperfections.

If the screen requires more than dusting, apply water or neutral detergent to a soft cloth to clean the monitor screen.

CAUTION

Do not use benzene, thinner or any volatile substances to clean the unit as the finish may be permanently marked.

Never leave the monitor in contact with rubber or vinyl for an extended time period.

Do not spray directly on the screen as cleaner may drip into the monitor and damage the circuitry.

Never use an abrasive cleaner on the screen surface as this will damage the anti-reflection coating.
