Preparations

['he following accessories are included with the Monitor. Check for them. If any item is missing, please contact the dealer where
you purchased the Monitor.

* Remote control (RM-C579) x 1
* Power cord x 1
* Batteries (AA/R6P) x 2

* Ferrite core x 1 (Only for GM-V42UG)

Put the batteries in the remote control as follows. If the remote control has become erratic in operation, change the batteries.

1 Remove the back cover.

While pushing the release lever on the cover, remove the cover in
the direction of the arrow.

2 Place the batteries.

Put the two supplied batteries (AA/R6P), noting the (_ and (_

Make sure the release lever on the cover is locked in place correctly_

Precautions for using batteries

If batteries are used improperly, the liquid could leak out, causing a fire, injury, etc. or dirtying the vicinity:
Take notice of the following:

* Do not mix old and new batteries.
* Do not mix different types of battery as different types may have different characteristics.

* Place the batteries according to the (_ and _@markings indicated on the battery compartment.
* When installing the batteries, insert the @ end first to avoid a short circuit.
* Use only the specified batteries.
* When you are not using the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries.
* When the batteries have reached the end of their life, replace them with new ones immediately. Otherwise, the liquid may leak

out, or malfunction may be caused by the leaked liquid. If the leaked liquid contacts your skin, wipe off the liquid with a soft

cloth. If the affected skin is left as is, you may get a rough skin.
* Do not throw the batteries into fire or try recharging them.
* The service life of batteries is six months to one year for normal use. The supplied batteries are only for checking the operation

and their life may be shorter. When the remote control operation becomes erratic, replace with new batteries.

Attach the ferrite core to the power cord. Using the power cord without the ferrite core may lead to noise (interference). Open
the ferrite core, insert the power cord and close the ferrite core. Attach the ferrite core to the AC IN end of the power cord.

Precautions for using the screen mode switching function

o This Monitor features a screen mode switching (aspect ratio

change) function. If you select a mode different in aspect
ratio from software such as TV programs, the picture may
look different from original picture. Be aware of this point
when you are selecting a screen mode.

* If you select a wide screen mode while viewing

conventional video programs of the aspect ratio 4:3, some
portions (edges) of the original picture will be cut off, or
deformed. I\_ enjoy the original picture as it is, select
"REGULAR" while viewing such program s.

* If you place the Monitor in a tea room, hotel, etc. for

business purposes or public viewing and modify the picture
by using the screen mode switching (aspect ratio change)
function, this could violate the copyright protected by the
copyright law, which requires your special attention.

* If you make the screen very bright and watch programs

selecting "REGULAR," for a long period of time, the
Monitor screen may happen to be burned in. If this occurs,
watching programs using a wide screen mode for a while
will reduce the burn-in gradually.
