9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounded plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounded plug has two blades and third grounding prong. The wide blade or third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, extension cables, and
the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the
apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury should the unit tip-over.
13. The monitor should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the label. If
you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
14. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
15. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
16. The Class I apparatus shall be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing
connection.
17. The mains plug or extension cable must be used to disconnect the device from mains power, and so
should be easily accessible.
18. CAUTION – These servicing instructions are for use by qualified service personnel only. To reduce
the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.
19. For use only with Listed Wall Mount Bracket with minimum weight/load: Please see page.26
20. Tilt/Stability – All monitor must comply with recommended international global safety standards for

recommended by the manufacturer.
22. Power Lines – An outdoor antenna should be located away from power lines.
23. Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver, be sure the
antenna system is grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mats and supporting structure grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure below.
EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the 6 English grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical. Please, make sure to connect the power plug to the wall outlet socket after connecting the monitor to the adapter!
24. Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as
vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
25.
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.

ATTACHING THE BASE
IMPORTANT: The Base of the monitor must
be assembled prior to usage.
1. Place monitor unit face down on a soft and flat surface (blanket, foam, cloth, etc.) to prevent any damage to the monitor.
2. Carefully align and insert the Base to the stand.
1 Loosen the screws holding your
monitor to the stand and remove the stand base from the monitor.
2 Secure the wall mount bracket to the
back of your monitor using four screws, as indicated in the illustration.
3. Gently push the Base towards the monitor until the locking mechanism locks into place.
PREPARING YOUR MONITOR FOR WALL MOUNTING
We suggest that you keep your monitor at least 2.36 inches (60 mm) from the wall to prevent cable interference. Before mounting your monitor on the wall, you need to remove the base.
For your safety, please use listed wall mount bracket with minimum weight of the monitor without stand. (Please see page.26)
To attach a wall mount bracket to your monitor:
NOTE
Wall mount bracket & screws are not included.
Please make sure to connect the power plug to the wall outlet socket after connecting the monitor to the power cord!
1. Install the base stand; place the
monitor on a solid surface.
Ensure that the monitor is placed in a position to allow free flow of air. Do not cover the ventilation openings on the back cover. To prevent unsafe situations, no naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on or in the vicinity. Avoid heat, direct sunlight and exposure to rain or water. The equipment shall not be exposed to drips or splashes.
