Monitor care

Always remove the plug from the AC outlet when cleaning the monitor.

Use a soft dry cloth to lightly wipe away any grime from the cabinet and control panel.

If they are very dirty, apply neutral detergent to a dampened soft cloth, wring it out well and wipe away grime.

LCD panel section

Use a soft dry cloth to lightly wipe away dirt and dust from the surface of the LCD panel. (A soft cloth such as gauze or that used for lens cleaning is suitable.)

CAUTION!

The monitor's florescent tubes have a limited life span.

-If the screen darkens, persistently flickers or does not light up, it may be necessary to replace the florescent tube unit. Please inquire at the shop where you purchased the monitor or your nearest Sharp authorized Service Center. (Never attempt this replacement on your own.)
