If provided with a 3-pin attachment plug on the power cord, plug the cord into a grounded (earthed) 3-pin outlet. Do not disable the power cord grounding pin, for example, by attaching a 2-pin adapter. The grounding pin is an important safety feature.
Stability Hazard.
The product may fall, causing serious personal injury or death. To prevent injury, this product must be securely attached to the floor/wall in accordance with the installation instructions.
A product may fall, causing serious personal injury or death. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:
ALWAYS use cabinets or stands or installation methods recommended by the manufacturer of the product set.
ALWAYS use furniture that can safely support the product.
ALWAYS ensure the product is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
ALWAYS educate children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the product or its controls.
ALWAYS route cords and cables connected to your product so they cannot be tripped over, pulled or grabbed.
NEVER place a product in an unstable location.
NEVER place the product on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the product to a suitable support.
NEVER place the product on cloth or other materials that may be located between the product and supporting furniture.
NEVER place items that might tempt children to climb, such as toys and remote controls, on the top of the product or furniture on which the product is placed.
If the existing product is going to be retained and relocated, the same considerations as above should be applied.
vi

Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss. Adjustment of the equalizer to maximum increases the earphones and headphones output voltage and therefore the sound pressure level.
Restriction on Hazardous Substances statement (India) This product complies with the “India E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2016” and prohibits use of Lead, Mercury, Hexavalent Chromium, polybrominated biphenyls(PBBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers(PBDEs) in concentration exceeding 0.1% by weight in homogenous materials and 0.01% by weight in homogenous materials for cadmium, except of exemptions listed in Schedule 2 of the Rule.

Care & Cleaning
· Before you lift or reposition your monitor, it is better to disconnect the cables and power cord. Follow the correct lifting techniques when positioning the monitor. When lifting or carrying the monitor, grasp the edges of the monitor. Do not lift the display by the stand or the cord.
· Cleaning. Turn your monitor off and unplug the power cord. Clean the monitor surface with a lint-free, non-abrasive cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth dampened with mild cleaner.
· Avoid using a cleaner containing alcohol or acetone. Use a cleaner intended for use with the LCD. Never spray cleaner directly on the screen, as it may drip inside the monitor and cause an electric shock.
The following symptoms are normal with the monitor: · The screen may flicker during the initial use due to the nature of the
fluorescent light. Turn off the Power Switch and turn it on again to make sure that the flicker disappears. · You may find slightly uneven brightness on the screen depending on the desktop pattern you use. · When the same image is displayed for hours, an afterimage of the previous screen may remain after switching the image. The screen will recover slowly or you can turn off the Power Switch for hours. · When the screen becomes black or flashes, or cannot work anymore, contact your dealer or service center to fix it.
