Precautions
AOC LM720
• Do not use the monitor near water, e.g. near a
bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub,
swimming pool or in a wet basement.
• Do not place the monitor on an unstable cart,
stand, or table. If the monitor falls, it can injure
a person and cause serious damage to the
appliance. Use only a cart or stand
recommended by the manufacturer or sold with
the monitor. If you mount the monitor on a wall
or shelf, use a mounting kit approved by the
manufacturer and follow the kit instructions.
• Slots and openings in the back and bottom of
the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To
ensure reliable operation of the monitor and to
protect it from overheating, be sure these
openings are not blocked or covered. Do not
place the monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar
surface. Do not place the monitor near or over
a radiator or heat register. Do not place the
monitor in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper
ventilation is provided.
• The monitor should be operated only with 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.
• Do not overload power strips and extension
cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric
shock.
• For use only with power adapter (Output
12Vdc) which has UL, CSA listed license.
• The monitor is equipped with a three-pronged
grounded plug, a plug with a third (grounding)
pin. As a safety feature, this plug will only fit
into a grounded power outlet. If your outlet
does not accommodate the three-wire plug,
have an electrician install the correct outlet, or
use an adapter to ground the appliance safely.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
grounded plug.
• Unplug the unit during a lightning storm or
when it will not be used for long periods of time.
This will protect the monitor from damage due
to power surges.
• Never push any object into the slot on the
monitor cabinet. It could short circuit parts
causing a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquids on the monitor.
• Do not attempt to service the monitor yourself;
opening or removing covers can expose you to
dangerous voltage and other hazards. Please
refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
• To ensure satisfactory operation, use the
monitor only with UL-listed computers which
have appropriately configured receptacles
marked between 100 - 240 V AC, Min. 5A.
• The wall socket should be installed near the
equipment and should be easily accessible.
• Disconnect the power cord to stop the power
supply to the monitor.

pecial Notes on
The following symptoms are normal with an LCD
monitor and do not indicate a problem:
• Due to the nature of the fluorescent light, the
screen may flicker during initial use. Turn off the
Power Switch and then turn it on again to make
sure the flicker disappears.
• You may find slightly uneven brightness on the
screen depending on the desktop pattern you
use.
• The LCD screen has effective pixels of 99.99%
or more. It may include blemishes of 0.01% or
less such as a missing pixel or a pixel lit all of
the time.
• Due to the nature of the LCD screen, an afterimage of the previous screen may remain after
switching from an image that has been
displayed for hours. This after-image could
require several hours to disappear.
• The life of the fluorescent light used in the LCD
monitor is approximately 30,000 hours. Contact
your dealer or EPI service center for
replacement when the screen is dark, flickering
or not lighting up. Never attempt to replace it by
yourself.
