SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

• STOP OPERATING THE MONITOR WHEN YOU SENSE TROUBLE
  If you notice any abnormal phenomena such as smoke, strange sounds or fumes, unplug the monitor and contact your dealer or iiyama service center immediately. Further use may be dangerous and can cause fire or electric shock.

• NEVER REMOVE THE CABINET
  High voltage circuits are inside the monitor. Removing the cabinet may expose you to the danger of fire or electric shock.

• DO NOT PUT ANY OBJECT INTO THE MONITOR
  Do not put any solid objects or liquids such as water into the monitor. In case of an accident, unplug your monitor immediately and contact your dealer or iiyama service center. Using the monitor with any object inside may cause fire, electric shock or damage.

• INSTALL THE MONITOR ON A FLAT, STABLE SURFACE
  The monitor may cause an injury if it falls or is dropped.

• DO NOT USE THE MONITOR NEAR WATER
  Do not use where water may be splashed or spilt onto the monitor as it may cause fire or electric shock.

• OPERATE UNDER THE SPECIFIED POWER SUPPLY
  Be sure to operate the monitor only with the specified power supply. Use of an incorrect voltage will cause malfunction and may cause fire or electric shock.

• PROTECT THE CABLES
  Do not pull or bend the power cable and signal cable. Do not place the monitor or any other heavy objects on the cables. If damaged, the cables may cause fire or electric shock.

• ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS
  It is advisable not to operate the monitor during a heavy thunder storm as the continual breaks in power may cause malfunction. It is also advised not to touch the plug in these circumstances as it may cause electric shock.

CAUTION

INSTALLATION LOCATION

• Do not install the monitor where sudden temperature changes may occur, or in humid, dusty or smoky areas as it may cause fire, electric shock or damage. You should also avoid areas where the sun shines directly on the monitor.

• DO NOT PLACE THE MONITOR IN A HAZARDOUS POSITION

• The monitor may topple and cause injury if not suitably located. Please also ensure that you do not place any heavy objects on the monitor, and that all cables are routed such that children may not pull the cables and possibly cause injury.

• MAINTAIN GOOD VENTILATION

• Ventilation slots are provided to keep the monitor from overheating. Covering the slots may cause fire. To allow adequate air circulation, place the monitor at least 10cm (or 4 inches) from any walls.

• When removing the tilt stand, the ventilation slots on the back side of the monitor can be blocked. This may overheat the monitor and may cause fire or damage. Make sure to allow enough ventilation when removing the tilt stand. Operating the monitor on its back, side, upside down or on a carpet or any other soft material may also cause damage.

• DISCONNECT THE CABLES WHEN YOU MOVE THE MONITOR

• When you move the monitor, turn off the power switch, unplug the monitor and be sure the signal cable is disconnected. If you do not disconnect them, it may cause fire or electric shock.

• UNPLUG THE MONITOR

• If the monitor is not in use for a long period of time it is recommended that it is left unplugged to avoid accidents.

• HOLD THE PLUG WHEN DISCONNECTING

• To disconnect the power cable or signal cable, always pull it by the plug. Never pull on the cable  itself as this may cause fire or electric shock.

• DO NOT TOUCH THE PLUG WITH WET HANDS

• Pulling or inserting the plug with wet hands may cause electric shock.

• WHEN YOU INSTALL THE MONITOR ON YOUR COMPUTER
  

• Be sure the computer is strong enough to hold the weight of the monitor, otherwise, you may damage your computer.

• CAREFUL! PROTECT YOUR HANDS AND FINGERS

  • Be careful not to hurt your fingers or hands when you change the height or the angle.

OTHERS

• You may find slightly uneven brightness on the screen depending on the desktop pattern you use.
• Due to the nature of the LCD screen, an afterimage of the previous screen may remain after switching the image, when the same image is displayed for hours. In this case, the screen can be recovered slowly by changing the image or turning off the Power Switch for some hours.
