Precautions for Use

•The LCD monitor is manufactured with high-precision technol- ogy and has an effective pixel count of over 99.99 %. How- ever, less than 0.01 % of pixels may be stuck or dead. This is not a malfunction and does not affect recorded images.

•When a still image is displayed for an extended period of time, it may generate a temporary afterimage (phosphor burn-in). (However, such images can be removed by displaying normal video for a while.)

•LCD response speed and brightness vary with ambient tem- peratures.

•Do not install the unit where it is exposed to direct sunlight. It may damage the cabinet and LCD screen.

•Do not install the unit in locations where enough space cannot be provided around it as heat may build up inside preventing normal operation. Be sure to provide enough space around the unit.

•Exposing the LCD screen to intense light sources will impair its characteristics and lower image quality.

•In an environment exposed to drastic temperature fluctuations, condensation may build up on and inside the LCD screen. This may lower the quality of the screen and may damage it.

•Some video images may appear blurred on the screen.

•Leaving the unit in a location exposed to high temperature and humidity for an extended period of time may damage the LCD screen and cause blurring.

•Streaks of light may be seen in the area between the edge of the screen and the frame; this is normal and not a malfunction.

•The LCD panel is covered by the packaging material to protect it from damage during transportation and when unpacking it. Remove the packaging material before use.

•This unit does not support VIERA Link. When the unit is con- nected to a VIERA-Link-compatible device via an HDMI cable, VIERA Link functions on the other devices may not operate properly.

•Using the unit near a wireless transmitter, high-voltage equip- ment, speakers, large motors or other devices or exposing it to static electricity could cause electromagnetic interference and distort audio and video reception.
