Attention
• Do not exert strong pressure to the surface of the monitor screen.
You may break the LCD panel.
• Do not place heavy objects on top of this product. They may damage
the monitor.
• Do not touch the monitor screen with your fingers. Fingerprints and oil
stains may remain on the screen surface. They are difficult to wipe off.
• The monitor is heavy. Ask the help of others if you cannot carry it by
yourself.
• When leaving your office for a long vacation, always unplug the power
cords from the main outlet.
LCD considerations
The liquid crystals in the display panel contain several irritants. If the
panel is damaged or broken, do not let the liquid come in contact with
your skin, eyes, or mouth. If you do come in contact with the liquid, flush
the affected part with running water for at least 15 minutes. If any
symptom remains, consult a doctor. The fluorescent lamp in the liquid
crystal display (LCD) contains mercury (50 mg. (0.002 oz.) maximum). Do
not place in trash that is disposed of in landfills. Dispose of it as required
by local ordinances or regulations.
Operating considerations
To ensure comfortable operation of the monitor, follow the instruction
below:
• Place the monitor in front of you for easy viewing.
• Place the monitor at a comfortable distance (50 –60 cm) (19 – 24 in.)
from you.
• Tilt the monitor so that top of the monitor is at your eye level.
• Adjust the angle of the tilt so that there is no reflection of light and
objects. If necessary, turn off the light or lower its luminescence. If
near a window, close the curtains or pull down the blind to cut the
sunlight.
• Adjust the screen brightness.
• Use a chair with a high-reclining back and sit deep into it.
• Operating on the screen for long hours can cause fatigue and
eyestrain. Divert your eyes from the screen for short intervals during
operation, and take short rests.
