The liquid crystal that may leak from the panel is poisonous if it enters the eyes or mouth.
If any part of the skin or body comes in direct contact with the panel, please wash thoroughly. If some physical symptoms result, please consult your doctor.
Follow local regulation or laws for safe disposal.
The backlight of the LCD panel contains mercury.

(equal to default setting of Brightness approximately 60 %).
cd/m
The screen may have defective pixels. These pixels may appear as slightly light or dark area on the screen. This is due to the characteristics of the panel itself, and not the product.
The backlight of the LCD panel has a fixed life span. When the screen becomes dark or begins to flicker, please contact your dealer.
Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this may result in damage to the screen. There will be prints left on the screen if the pressed image is dark or black. If pressure is repeatedly applied to the screen, it may deteriorate or damage your LCD panel. Leave the screen white to decrease the prints.
Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects, such as a pencil or pen as this may result in damage to the panel. Do not attempt to brush with tissues as this may scratch the LCD panel.
