Installation

•Prevent internal heat build-up by allowing adequate air circulation. Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation holes.

•Do not install the unit near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.

•Do not place the unit near equipment which generates magnetism, such as a converter or high voltage power lines.

Maintenance

•Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent, such as alcohol or benzine.

•Do not rub, touch, or tap the surface of the screen with sharp or abrasive items, like a ballpoint pen or a screwdriver. This type of contact may result in a scratched picture tube.

Warning on power

connection

• Use the supplied power cord.

For the customers in UK

If you use the monitor in UK, please use the UK cable with UK plug (not supplied).

•Before disconnecting the power cord, wait for at least 30 seconds after turning off the power to allow the static electricity on the CRT display surface to discharge.

•After the power has been turned on, the CRT is demagnetized for approximately five seconds. This generates a strong magnetic field around the bezel, which may affect the data stored on magnetic tapes or disks near the bezel. Place such magnetic recording equipment and tapes/disks away from this unit.

The socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and be easily accessible.
