SAFETY GUIDELINES(continued)
Precautions
● Installation environment
Do not obstruct a ventilation hole.
Do not put the monitor on carpet or blanket, or near a curtain which has a possibility of
obstructing a ventilation hole of the monitor.
Do not put the monitor in the following places.
♦ Hot places such as near heater, place exposed to the direct rays of the sun.
♦ A place where the temperature is widely changing.
♦ Places with soot, dust or high humidity.
♦ Poor air ventilation place.
♦ Place near fire.
♦ A wet place such as bathroom, or shower room.
♦ Place where you can trip over it.
♦ Always vibrating or strongly vibrating places.
♦ Distorted or unstable places.
● How to view the monitor.
If you use the monitor in too dark a room, your eyes may become tired.
Please use it in a reasonably bright room.
Avoid direct rays of the sun to the screen in order to prevent eye fatigue.
Your eyes will get fatigued after viewing the monitor for long.
Relax your eyes by viewing away from the monitor from time to time.
Please watch the monitor in downward direction.
● Note on Afterimages (Burn-in)
The plasma monitor illuminates phosphor to display images. The phosphor has a finite
illumination life. After extended periods of illumination, the brightness of the phosphor
would be degraded to such extent that stationary images would burn into that part of the
screen as grayed-out images.
Tips to prevent such burn-in are:
- Do not display images having sharp brightness differences or high-contrast images,
such as monochrome characters and graphic patterns, for long.
- Do not leave stationary images appearing for long, but try to refresh them at
appropriate intervals of time, or try to move them using screen saver function.
