Precautions

Notes on handling

■Do not subject the LCD panel to physical shock, such as
dropping it. It may cause unit damage and malfunction.
■Retain the original shipping carton and packing
materials. For maximum protection when shipping,
repack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.
■Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide, near the
unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact
with the unit for prolonged periods of time. Doing so will
leave marks on the finish.
■The top and rear panels of the unit may become warm
after a long period of use. This is not a malfunction.
■When the unit is not in use, turn off the power.
■If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit may
not function properly in the future. Turn on and use the
unit occasionally.

Notes on locating the unit

■Place the unit on a level surface. Do not use it on a
shaky or unstable surface such as a wobbling table or
inclined stand. Doing so may damage the unit.
■When you place this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the
playback picture may become poor and the sound may
be distorted. In this case, place the unit away from the
TV, radio, or VCR.
Introduction

Notes on cleaning

Clean only with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.

Notes on LCD

■The color LCD is manufactured using extremely high
precision technology, but even so may include certain
pixels that do not operate properly (that do not light, that
remain lit constantly, etc.). We do our best to keep the
number of these defective pixels to a minimum, but
please understand that they cannot be completely
eliminated even with the most advanced manufacturing
technologies available today.
■The fluorescent tube which illuminates the panel from
the inside will deteriorate with use. When the LCD
becomes dim, flickers, or does not illuminate, contact
your dealer for replacement.
■The brightness of the LCD monitor differs slightly
depending on the viewing angles. Adjust the angle to
obtain the best viewing. (The recommended angle is 90
degrees to the monitor.)
