2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING / CAUTION

yyPlease read these safety precautions carefully before using the product.

yyIn this manual, the illustration may be somewhat different from your product because it is just example to help the instruction.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the

presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of

important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

WARNING/CAUTION

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC SHOCK. DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

Read these instructions.

Keep these instructions.

Heed all warnings.

Follow all instructions.

yyDo not use this apparatus near water.

yyClean only with dry cloth.

yyDo not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

yyDo not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (in cluding amplifiers) that produce heat.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 3

yyDo not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong, The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

yyProtect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

yyOnly use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

yyUse only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tipover.

yyUnplug this apparatus during lighting storms or when unused for long periods of time.

yyRefer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

yyNever touch this apparatus or antenna during a thunder or lighting storm.

yyWhen mounting a monitor on the wall, make sure not to install the monitor by the hanging power and signal cables on the back of the monitor.

yyDo not allow an impact shock or any objects to fall into the product, and do not drop onto the screen with something.

yyCAUTION concerning the Power Cord:

It is recommend that appliances be placed upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet circuit which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets or branch circuits. Check the specification page of this owner's manual to be certain.

Do not connect too many appliances to the same AC power outlet as this could result in fire or electric shock.

Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are dan-

If the product needs to be set upright, hold both sides of the product, and tilt backward carefully for the panel not to touch the floor. (The setting upright of the set is possible with the outer frame)

When laying down the product, lay a cushion on a flat floor, and put the product on it with the panel of the product facing down.

Incorrect method

Guide Fixer

Align the sets using guide pins before installing a guide fixer. This ensures that the sets are aligned properly.

1 Align a guide fixer with the holes and fasten them with the screws.

2 When installation of the sets is complete, attach the protection cushion provided.

NOTE

For a portrait type, there is also a fixer fixing point in the center.

Its position can be changed if necessary.(You do not have to use them all.)

ASSEMBLING AND PREPARING 17

Protection cushion attachment

yyWe recommended that you attach the protection cushion, as shown in the picture below, to prevent damage.

NOTE

yyIt is recommended that you attach a separate frame to the edge of the set to prevent damage.

Transportation method for panel protection

yyImage shown may differ from your monitor.

For adequate ventilation and maintenance service, secure a minimum distance of 20 cm as shown below before installation.

15 cm

		20 cm

Caution

yyWhen sets are built in to a wall, the internal temperature may rise to such an extent that it causes overheating, which may lead to a fire. To prevent the set from overheating, please follow the instructions below.

yyAvoid completely sealed installation. yyTo ensure adequate ventilation, keep the

top, the bottom and the sides of the set a minimum of 20 cm from the wall. (The back of the set should be a minimum of 15 cm from the wall.)

yyIf there is not enough space, a separate ventilation device is required.

yyIf you install four or more sets on top of one another, you will need to ensure a ventilator is used. (for example, a forced draft fan.)

Cautions on installation

Stand type

-Do not install the product in a location where vibration or shock is likely to occur. Objects may be dropped on the product causing damage to it.

-Do not install the product next to a sprinkler sensor. The sprinkler may operate accidentally because of the heat from the product.

-Do not install the product near high-tension wires. The image on the screen may not be properly displayed.

-Do not install the product near a heater. This may cause product malfunction.

Wall-mount type

-Check whether the wall is stable enough to install the product. If the wall is weak, it may cause an accident. Reinforce the wall before installation.

-Secure enough space for cabling before finishing the wall mounting process.

NOTE

yyPut down a panel slowly during installation to avoid panel damage by bumping into each other.

yyWhen adjusting the interval between the sets, make sure that the sets are balanced vertically and horizontally. If the set is tilted as shown in the figure, this may cause damage to the product due to interference between the edges.
