Precautions

Warning on power connections
• Use the supplied power cord.
• Before disconnecting the power cord, wait at least 30 seconds

after turning off the power to allow the static electricity on the
screen’s surface to discharge.

• After the power is turned on, the screen is demagnetized

(degaussed) for about 5 seconds. This generates a strong
magnetic field around the screen which may affect data stored on
magnetic tapes and disks placed near the monitor. Be sure to keep
magnetic recording equipment, tapes, and disks away from the
monitor.

Installation
Do not install the monitor in the following places:
• on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains,

draperies, etc.) that may block the ventilation holes

• near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place

subject to direct sunlight

• in a place subject to severe temperature changes
• in a place subject to mechanical vibration or shock
• on an unstable surface
• near equipment which generates magnetism, such as a

transformer or high voltage power lines

• near or on an electrically charged metal surface
• in a dusty or smoky environment
• inside an enclosed rack

Protection
• Do not put foreign objects into the monitor.
• Disconnect the monitor if environment exceeds 60°C/140°F.
• Ensure AC power cord is not trapped under furniture, TV, etc.
• Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or convenience

receptacles beyond their capacity.

• Never spill liquid of any kind on the monitor.

Notes on cleaning the screen’s surface
• The screen’s surface is covered with a thin anti-reflective coating

to enhance the ergonomic characteristics of the monitor. To
ensure that the coating is not damaged, use a soft cloth to clean
the screen’s surface. If necessary, use a soft cloth lightly
moistened with a mild detergent solution, such as hand soap, to
wipe the screen.

• Do not use any type of abrasive pad, alkaline cleanser, scouring

powder, or solvents such as alcohol or benzene as they might
damage the anti-reflective coating.

• If you use a glass cleaning liquid, do not use any type of cleaner

containing an anti-static solution or similar additive as this may
scratch the screen’s coating.

• Do not rub, touch, or tap the surface of the screen with sharp or

abrasive items such as a ballpoint pen or screwdriver. This type
of contact may result in a scratched picture tube.

Notes on cleaning the cabinet
• 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 benzene.
