IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
ENVIRONMENT
- Do not install the monitor outdoors or in any hostile environment. To prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose monitor to rain or moisture. Avoid placing the monitor in areas subject to extreme temperature such as direct sunlight or near a heating appliances/equipment (such as amplifiers, etc) as this may result in overheating and damage.
- This monitor is designed to be used in the office or home. Do not subject it to vibrations, dust or corrosive gases.
- To obtain a clear picture, do not expose screen to direct illumination or sunlight. Using the monitor against a bright background and where sunlight or other light sources shine directly on to the monitor can increase eye fatigue.
POWER CORD
- Neither the monitor itself nor any other heavy object should rest on the power cord.
- Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles and the point where they exit from the monitor.
- Firmly grasp the plug when disconnecting the power cord. Do not pull the power cord itself.
- Do not modify or damage the cord. Damage to a power cord can cause fire or electric shock.
- This monitor is designed to operate on 100-240V AC supply. Take caution in connecting it to the correct supply using the correct power cord.
MOUNTING
- Ensure the monitor is located close to a power outlet that is easily accessible, as removing the power cord is the only way to isolate power.
USING A WALL MOUNT
Caution: Any wall mount must bear a minimum of 5x the monitor’s net weight to mount safely. The stand must be removed first before mounting this way.
- Place the monitor face down on a surface that is soft, yet strong enough to hold the monitor.
- Use a screwdriver to remove the screws from the four holes on each side of the bottom of the monitor’s base.
- Make sure all cables are already connected to the monitor.
- Follow the directions included with the wall mount to fix the monitor to the wall.
STORAGE
- Unplug the monitor if it will not be used for a long period.
VENTILATION
- Never cover or block the ventilation slots in the monitor. A minimum distance of at least 10 cm should be maintained around the unit for sufficient ventilation.
- Never insert any foreign object, metal or liquid into the ventilation slots, as this could result in fire or electric shock.
- Avoid installing a DVR or other equipment too close to the monitor. Keep such equipment at least 30 cm away from the monitor.
WATER AND MOISTURE
- The monitor should not be exposed to any moisture or liquid.
- Do not use the monitor near water.
- Do not touch the monitor or cable with wet hands as this may cause electric shock or damage.
CLEANING
- Unplug the unit from the wall outlet before cleaning.
- Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a dry soft lint-free cloth for cleaning. If dust is persistent, wipe with a slightly damp cloth.
