Safety Precautions and Maintenance

FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, PLEASE NOTE

THE FOLLOWING WHEN SETTING UP AND USING

THE LaCie 319 LCD COLOR MONITOR:

• DO NOT OPEN THE MONITOR. There are no user serviceable parts inside and opening or removing covers may expose

you to dangerous shock hazards or other risks. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

• Do not spill any liquids into the cabinet or use your monitor near water.
• Do not insert objects of any kind into the cabinet slots, as they may touch dangerous voltage points, which can be

harmful or fatal or may cause electric shock, fire or equipment failure.

• Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord. Damage to the cord may cause shock or fire.
• Do not place this product on a sloping or unstable surface, as the monitor may fall, causing serious damage.
• Do not place any objects onto the monitor and do not use the monitor outdoors.
• The inside of the fluorescent tube located within the LCD monitor contains mercury. Please follow the bylaws or rules of

your municipality to dispose of the tube properly.

• Do not bend power cord.
• Do not use monitor in high temperatured, humid, dusty, or oily areas.
• Do not cover vent on monitor.
Immediately unplug your monitor from the outlet and refer servicing to qualified personnel under the following conditions:
• When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
• If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the monitor.
• If the monitor has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the monitor has been dropped or the cabinet damaged.
• If the monitor does not operate normally by following operating instructions.
• If glass is broken, handle with care.
• If monitor or glass is broken, do not come in contact with the liquid crystal and handle with care.
• Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor so that heat can properly dissipate. Do not block ventilated openings or

place the monitor near a radiator or other heat sources. Do not put anything on top of monitor.

• The power cable connector is the primary means of detaching the system from the power supply. The monitor should be

installed close to a power outlet which is easily accessible.

• Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for transporting.
• Image Persistence: Please be aware that LCD Technology may experience a phenomenon known as Image Persistence.
Image Persistence occurs when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image remains visible on the screen. Unlike CRT
monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not permanent, but constant images being displayed for a long period of time
should be avoided. To alleviate image persistence, turn off teh monitor for as long as the previous image was displayed. For
example, if an image was on the monitor for one hour, the monitor should be turned off for one hour to erase the image.
