Precautions

• 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 damag e 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. D o 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 pr oper
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.

• 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 t he t hree-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.

cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric
shock.

• 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 moni tor.

• 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 re ceptacles
marked between 100 - 240 V AC, Min. 3.5A.
