ASSEMBLING AND PREPARING
y
Disconnect the power cord first, and then move or install the Monitor set. Otherwise electric shock may occur.
y
If you install the Monitor set on a ceiling or slanted wall, it may fall and result in severe injury.
y
Do not over tighten the screws as this may cause damage to the Monitor set and void your warranty.
y
Use the screws and wall mounts that meet the VESA standard. Any damages or injuries by misuse or using an improper accessory are not covered by the warranty.
CAUTION
NOTE
Do not install the product in a place with no ventilation (e.g., on a bookshelf or in a closet) or on a carpet or cushion. If there is no other option but to mount the product on
the wall, make sure that sufcient ventilation
is provided before installation.
- Failure to do so may result in a re due to
the increase in the internal temperature.
Install the monitor at least 10 cm away from the wall and leave about 10 cm of space at each side of the monitor to ensure sufficient ventilation. Use the wall mount plate and screws that comply with the VESA standard.
Installing on a Wall
To install the Monitor on a wall (optional),
use the VESA screws provided as accessories to fasten it. Please refer to p11 on How to Mount the Set.

How to Join Sets
y
The load applied to each set should be supported by the wall mount plate or the wall using a VESA wall mount (600 x 400).
y
The load applied to each set should be supported by the wall mount plate using a VESA wall mount. (Each set must be firmly mounted to the wall mount plate or the wall.)
y
You may mount the set without using the tiling guide; this does not affect the performance of the device.
NOTE
1 Join other sets using screws for xing the VESA wall mount in the same way as above.
2 After joining the sets, use the tiling guide to adjust the gap between the sets.
3 Now the 2 x 2 tiling is complete.
You can tile in various combinations, such as 3 x 3.
