Important Safety Instructions

FCC Statement

This equipment has been tested to comply with the limits for a class B digital device,

pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide

reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This

equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not

installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful

interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause

harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by

English

turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the

interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to

which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Warning: If a shielded-type power cord is supplied with this monitor, it is required in

order to meet FCC emission limits and to prevent interference with nearby radio and

television reception. Only shielded cables should be used to connect I/O devices to

this equipment. You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly

approved by the party responsible for compliance could void your authority to

operate the equipment.

CE Statement

This device complies with the requirements of EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility),

and with Low Voltage directive.

TCO'99

TCO99 compliant monitors must be compliant with TCO99 which is more stringent

than MPRII. The purchase of TCO99 compliant monitors contributes to reducing the

burden on the environment and also to the further development of environmentally

adapted electronics products.

Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?

In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method-for

3

S730 User’s Manual

encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the environment. The main

problem, as far as computers and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that

environmentally harmful substances are used both in the products and during their

manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of

electronics equipment, most of these potentially damaging substances sooner or

later enter nature.

There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption

levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the work (internal) and natural

(external) environments. Since all methods of electricity generation have a negative

effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive

waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics equipment in offices is often left running

continuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy.

What does labelling involve?

This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides for

international and environmental labelling of personal computers. The labelling

scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of

Professional Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society

for Nature Conservation) and Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish National

Energy Administration).

Approval requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics,

usability, emission of electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical

and fire safety.

The environmental demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of heavy

metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated

solvents, among other things. The product must be prepared for recycling and the

manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental policy which must be adhered to in

each country where the company implements its operational policy.

English

The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a

certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one

or more stages. The length of time to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for

the user.

Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in respect

of the reduction of electric and magnetic fields, physical and visual ergonomics and

good usability. Below you will find a brief summary of the environmental

requirements met by this product. The complete environmental criteria document

may be ordered from:

Environmental requirements

Flame retardants

Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and

housings. There purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to

30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame retardant substances.

Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride, and those flame retardants are

chemically related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame

retardants containing bromine or chloride and the PCBs are suspected of giving rise

to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and

mammals, due to the bio-accumulative* processes. Flame retardants have been

found in human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development

may occur.

The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than

25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine or

chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit boards since no

substitutes are available.

Cadmium**

Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating layers of

certain computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in

high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries, the

colour-generating layers of display screens and the electrical or electronics

components must not contain any cadmium.

Mercury**

Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the

nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states

that batteries may not contain any mercury. It also demands that mercury is not

present in any of the electrical or electronics components associated with the

labelled unit.

CFCs (freons)

The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used

during the manufacture and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes

5

S730 User’s Manual

used for washing printed circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby

damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing increased reception on earth of

ultraviolet light with e.g. increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) as a

consequence.

Lead**

Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead

damages the nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning. The

relevant TCO'99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has

yet been developed.

*Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living

organisms.

** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.

Safety Precautions

Please read the following instructions carefully. This manual should be retained for

future reference.

1. To clean the LCD Monitor screen make sure the Monitor is in the power off mode.

Unplug the Monitor from its power source before cleaning it. Stand away from the

English

LCD Monitor and spray cleaning solution onto a rag. Without applying excessive

pressure clean the screen with the slightly dampened rag.

2. Do not place your LCD Monitor near a window. Exposing the Monitor to rain, water,

moisture or sunlight can severely damage it.

3. Do not place anything on top of the Monitor/PC signal cord. Make sure the cord is

placed in an area where it will not be stepped on.

4. Do not apply pressure to the LCD screen. Excessive pressure may cause

permanent damage to the display.

5. Do not remove the cover or attempt to service this unit by yourself. You may void

the warranty. Servicing of any nature should only be performed by an authorised

technician.

6. Safe storage of the LCD Monitor is in a range of minus 20 to plus 65 degrees

Celsius. Storing your LCD Monitor outside this range could result in permanent

damage.
