CAUTIONS

ENGLISH

 NEVER REMOVE THE REAR COVER !

The rear cover MUST be removed only by authorized service personnel. This colour monitor contains
high voltage components.

 THE RECEPTACLE SHOULD BE CLOSE TO THE MONITOR AND EASILY

 INSTALL THE UNIT IN AN SUITABLE ENVIRONMENT !

DO NOT expose this monitor to rain or moisture to prevent electric shock or fire hazard. This unit is
designed to be used in an office or business environment.
DO NOT subject the unit to vibrations, dust, or corrosive gases.

 KEEP IN A WELL VENTILATED PLACE !

DO NOT cover this monitor or place anything against any sides (not only the top, right and left side but
also the rear and bottom side) of unit. Ventilation holes are provided at all sides of the rear cover to
prevent the temperature from rising.

 KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT SOURCES !

AVOID placing the unit in direct sunshine or near a heating appliance.

 BE CAREFUL OF MAGNETIC FIELDS !

DO NOT place a magnet, loudspeaker system, floppy disk drive, printer, or anything which will
generate magnetism near the unit. A magnetic field may cause blurred colours or distortion of the
displayed pattern.

ACCESSIBLE !

 BE CAREFUL OF GENERATED MAGNETISM !

After the power has been turned on or “DEGAUSS” button has been pressed, the CRT is
demagnetized for approximately 10 seconds. This generates a strong magnetic field around the front
cover which may affect the data stored on magnetic tape or disks near the front cover. Place such

magnetic recording equipment and tapes/disks away from this unit.

 AMBIENT ILLUMINATION

Avoid direct rays of the sun or room lighting onto the CRT screen in order to prevent eye fatigue.

 THE ENCLOSED POWER CORD MUST BE USED !

In Europe, a proper European standard approved power cord is to be used with this monitor. For a
rated current up to 6 A, a type not lighter than H05VV-F 3G 0.75 mm2 or H05VVH2-F 3G 0.75 mm
must be used.

In USA/Canada, use a UL LISTED/CSA LABELLED or CERTIFIED power cord set meeting the
following specifications

Rating: min. 125V, 7A
Length: max. 3.0m
Type: SVT or SJT
Plug type: NEMA 5-15P figure, Parallel blade, Grounding type

Failure to do so may cause fire or electric shock hazard.

2

 USE ONLY THE CORRECT VOLTAGE POWER OUTLET WITH SAFETY

GROUND CONNECTION !

100 - 120 V for USA, Canada, etc.
200 - 240 V for Europe, etc.
(This monitor will automatically adjust to the input voltage 100 - 120 / 200 - 240V.)

 CAUTION for 200 - 240V operation only

This equipment relies on the protective devices in the building installation for short-circuit and over­current protection. Refer to the following table for the suitable number and location of the protective
devices which should be provided in the building installation.

 BE CAREFUL OF POWER CORD CONNECTION !

Before inserting the plug of the power cord into a receptacle of the correct voltage, check that the
connection portion of the power cord is clean (with no dust). Then, insert the plug of power cord to a
receptacle firmly, otherwise it may cause electrical shock or fire.

 REMOVE THE POWER CORD FOR COMPLETE SEPARATION !

For complete separation from the power source, remove the power cord from the monitor or from the
wall outlet.

 AVOID FREQUENT POWER ON-OFF SWITCHING !

DO NOT repeat OFF and ON in a short period. It may cause blurred colours or distortion of the
displayed pattern.

 BE CAREFUL OF STATIC ELECTRICITY ON CRT SURFACE !

To prevent electrical shock by the static electricity on the CRT surface, disconnect the power cord at
least 30 SECONDS AFTER turning off the power.

 ABOUT CLEANING

This monitor has a non-glare and anti-electrostatic treatment on the surface of the screen. Use water
or alcoholic solvent with soft cloth like gauze to clean the surface of the screen.
NEVER use abrasive, glass cleaner containing highly concentrated ammonia and strong base
chemicals since they damage the surface treatment.
Clean the cabinet and controls with a lightly moistened soft cloth.
DO NOT use aerosol sprays, solvents or abrasive cleaners.

IMPORTANT FOR UNITED KINGDOM

WORDING FOR CLASS  EQUIPMENT INSTRUCTION BOOKS AND LABELS

The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a moulded plug incorporating a fuse, the value of
which is indicated on the pin face of the plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, an ASTA or BSI
approved BS 1362 fuse must be used of the same rating. If the fuse cover is detachable never use
the plug with the cover omitted. If a replacement fuse cover is required, ensure it is of the same colour
as that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse covers are available from your dealer.

DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power
points in your home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain an appropriate safety
approved extension lead or consult your dealer.

Should it be necessary to change the mains plugs, this must be carried out by a competent person,
preferably a qualified electrician.

If there is no alternative to cutting off the mains plug, ensure that you dispose of it immediately, having
first removed the fuse, to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains
supply.

WARNING: THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE EARTHED

IMPORTANT

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green and Yellow = Earth, Blue = Neutral, Brown = Live.

As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your

ENGLISH

to Earth

plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured GREEN and YELLOW must be connected to the terminal in the plug which

is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol or coloured GREEN or GREEN and YELLOW.
The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter N or coloured BLUE

or BLACK. The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or
coloured BROWN or RED.

This monitor has two input terminals, INPUT 1 and INPUT 2. Therefore, you
may connect two computers simultaneously. When two computers are active,
you may switch the input signal by using the EasyMenu controls.

ENGLISH

INPUT 1 is the initial factory default setting. If you
would like to use INPUT 2, proceed to the “EasyMenu”
and select the “INPUT SELECT” mode. Press the “ ”
key and this will select INPUT 2.

AUTO INPUT SELECT

This monitor has an “INPUT AUTO SELECT” function which will select the input

by scanning for an input signal on either INPUT 1 or INPUT 2.

“ON” : Press the “ ” key.

 When there is no input signal received from the input connection which was selected

by “INPUT SELECT”, the “INPUT AUTO SELECT” function will select the alternate
connection. If there is no input signal received from either connection the monitor will
default to the “POWER SAVE” mode.

 If there are two computers connected to the monitor and for example you restart one

of the computers or it is activated from the “POWER SAVE” mode, it is possible that
the monitor may change to an undesired input connection. This may be easily correct
by changing the input selection to the desired INPUT 1 or INPUT 2 using the “INPUT
SELECT” function.

“OFF” : Press the “ “ key.

 When the “INPUT AUTO SELECT” function is placed in the “OFF” mode, the monitor

will default back to the selection that has been selected by the “INPUT SELECT”
function, and the input will no longer be selected automatically.

This function hides scrambled images which may appear during the changing

The muting period depends on the time that takes until the replaced signal
becomes stable.
