PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
• If the LCD monitor begins to emit smoke, smells like
something is burning, or makes strange noises,
disconnect all power connections immediately and contact
your dealer for advice.
Attempting to use a malfunctioning LCD monitor can be
dangerous.
• Do not dismantle the cabinet or modify the LCD monitor.
Dismantling the cabinet or modifying the monitor may result in
electric shock or burn.
• Keep small objects away from the LCD monitor.
Small objects may accidentally fall through the ventilation slots
into the cabinet-leading to fire, shock or equipment damage.
• Keep liquids away from the LCD monitor.
Spillage into the cabinet may result in fire, electric shock, or
equipment damage.
If an object or liquid falls/spills into the cabinet, unplug the LCD
monitor immediately. Have the unit checked by a qualified
service engineer before using it again.
• Do not touch a damaged LCD panel directly with bare
hands.
Use protective gloves whenever handling a damaged panel. The
liquid crystal which leaks 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.
• Take care in disposing of the LCD monitor.
The backlight of the LCD monitor contains mercury. Follow
local regulations or laws for safe disposal.
• Use the enclosed power cord. If using the power cord
other than the enclosed one, use the following cord.
In USA and Canada, use a UL LISTED/CSA LABELED or
CERTIFIED power cord set meeting the following specifications:
* Rating: min. 125 V, 10 A * Length: max. 2.0 m
* Type: SVT
* Plug type: NEMA 5-15P, Parallel blade, Grounding type,
125 V, 10 A
In Europe, use a proper European standard approved power cord
meeting the following specifications:
* Rating: min. 250 V, 10 A * Length: max. 2.0 m
* Type: H05VV-F 3G 1 mm
Use a plug type approved by the country where you use

• The equipment must be connected to a grounded main
outlet.
Failure to do this may result in an electric shock.
• Handle the power cord with care.
* Do not place the cord underneath the LCD monitor or other
heavy objects.
* Do not pull on the cord.
* Do not bend, bundle or tie up the cord.
* Never attempt to repair a damaged cord.
If the power cord becomes damaged, stop using it. Use of a
damaged cord may result in fire or electric shock.
• To disconnect the power cord, grasp the plug firmly and
pull.
Never tug on the cord, doing so may cause damage and could
result in fire or electric shock.
• Use the correct voltage.
The LCD monitor is designed for use with a specific voltage only.
Connection to a different voltage may cause fire, electric shock,
or other damage.
• Do not overload your power circuit, as this may result in
fire or electric shock.
• To ensure proper connections of the power cord, be
certain to plug the power cord into the provided LCD
monitor connector and directly to a wall outlet.
By not doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
• Keep the plastic packing bags away from children and
infants.
Plastic bags can be dangerous. To avoid danger of suffocation,
keep the bag away from babies and children.
• Place the LCD monitor on a strong, stable surface.
A unit placed on an inadequate surface may fall, resulting in
injury or equipment damage.
If the LCD monitor falls, disconnect the power immediately and
have the unit checked by a qualified service engineer before using
it again. Using a LCD monitor after it has been dropped may
result in fire or electric shock.
• When attaching the monitor to the mount, use the
enclosed screws and tighten them securely. When
reattaching the monitor to the tilt stand, use the screws
that was attached to the monitor originally.
By not doing so may result in injury or failure of the monitor. To
attach the mount to the monitor, please read the instruction
manual of the mount.

PRECAUTIONS
OK
• Set the LCD monitor in an appropriate location.
* Do not install in a dusty or humid environment.
* Do not place near water.
* Do not place in a location where light shines directly on the
screen.
* Do not place near heat generating devices or a humidifier.
CAUTION
• At the end of the day, or if you plan to leave the LCD
monitor unused for an extended period, turn off the main
power switch and disconnect the power cord from the wall
socket so that no power connections are made.
• To ensure safety, always unplug the LCD monitor before
cleaning it.
Cleaning the LCD monitor while it is plugged into a power
outlet may result in electric shock.
• Never use thinner, benzene, or other strong solvents or
abrasive cleaners, as these may cause damage to the
cabinet or LCD panel.
• Periodically clean the area around the plug.
Build-up of dust, water, or oil on the plug may result in fire.
• Please keep the LCD monitor in a dust-free environment.
Dust accumulation within the LCD monitor may result in fire or
equipment failure.
• Do not touch the plug or the power unit with wet hands.
Touching the plug with wet hands is dangerous and can cause
electrical shock.
• When handling the LCD monitor, please refer to the
diagram.
Grip the bottom of the LCD monitor firmly with both hands
ensuring the panel faces outward before lifting.
• Handle with care to avoid scratching or damaging the panel.
If the LCD monitor becomes damaged, disconnect the power
immediately and have the unit checked by a qualified service
engineer before using it again. Using a LCD monitor after it has
been dropped may result in fire or electric shock.
• Disconnect the power cord when moving the LCD monitor.
Moving the LCD monitor with the cord attached or lifting it is
dangerous. It may result in injury or equipment damage.

PRECAUTIONS
7
• Use an easily accessible power outlet.
This will ensure that you can disconnect the power quickly in case
of a problem.
• Do not block the ventilation slots on the cabinet.
* Do not place books or any other papers on the ventilation slots.
* Do not install the monitor in a closed space.
* Do not use the monitor laying down or upside down.
* Do not remove the tilt-swivel stand.
Using the monitor in this way blocks the ventilation slots
and prevents proper airflow, leading to fire or other damage.
Others
• The screen may have some defective pixels. These pixels
may appear as slightly light or dark areas on the screen.
This is due to the characteristics of the panel itself, and not
the LCD product.
• The backlight of the LCD monitor has a fixed life span.
When the screen becomes dark or begins to flicker, please contact
your dealer.
• Take care when handling the LCD panel.
* Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly
as this will result in damage to the screen. There will be prints
left on the screen if the pressed image is dark or black. Decrease
of the prints on the screen requires to keep white desktop pattern’s
on for L661, and black desktop pattern’s on for L680.
8
* Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects, such
as pencil or pen as this may result in damage to the panel.
* Cleaning the panel with a dirty or rough cloth may damage the
panel.
• Generally, for maximum viewing comfort position the LCD
monitor slightly below eye level. Staring at the LCD monitor for
prolonged periods can cause eye strain. Be sure to take adequate
rests. (A 10-minute rest period each hour is suggested.)
