way will not be covered by the product warranty. · Do not carry the monitor
upside down by just holding the base. This may cause the monitor to fall off
the
stand and could result in personal injury. · When lifting or moving the
monitor, do not touch the monitor screen. The force applied to the monitor
screen
may cause damage to it. · For wave pattern on appearance, unlike the general
method of coating, it’s applied to added glittering
material in raw material. With no peeled-off appearance, it has good
durability. Please use it with confidence because there is no problem in using
the product at all.
NOTE
· The components may look different from those illustrated here. · Without
prior notice, all product information and specifications contained in this

ENGLISH
Important Information for Preventing Image Retention
Unlike regular LED/LCD monitors, pixels in the OLED monitors emit light on
their own, achieving a perfect black and creating clear images without
blurring of light. Image retention does not occur in normal use of the
product, but can occur if the same screen is watched for a long time. Built-in
features are available to protect the screen from possible image retention. If
a static image persists on the screen, the screen saver will automatically
lower the full screen brightness, and the screen will turn off automatically
after a certain period of time. When an image change is detected, the
brightness is automatically restored to its original state. This is not a
malfunction of the product.
Examples of Images that may Cause Image Retention
· Static images or images containing objects/information that are constantly
visible in a fixed position on the screen (e.g., icons on the desktop, fixed
windows such as menus, or logos while watching broadcasts, etc.)
· Fixed menu/icon on a game console or set-top box · Fixed menu on the top
corner of the web browser
Recommendations For Preventing Image Retention
· You can prevent image retention using monitor menu settings. (Go to
[Settings] > [General] > [OLED Screen Move] / [OLED Screen Saver] / [OLED
Image Cleaning])
Safety precautions for prolonged use
Due to the unique properties of OLED panels, the brightness may be reduced
with prolonged use. Reduced brightness is permanent. In addition, repeated use
in conditions such as high temperature and high humidity or still images/high
luminance may result in afterimages, image blurring, or screen malfunction.
