2.Do not use this monitor near water such as near a bathtub,

washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool.

3.Monitors are provided with ventilation openings in the cabinet to allow the release of heat generated during operation. If these

openings are blocked, built up heat can cause failures which may result in a fire hazard. Therefore, NEVER:

Block the bottom ventilation slots by placing the monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, etc.

Place the monitor in a built-in enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.

Cover the openings with cloth or other material.

Place the monitor near or over a radiator or heat source.

On cleaning

Unplug the monitor before cleaning the face of the picture tube. Use a slightly damp (not wet) cloth. Do not use an aerosol directly on the picture tube because overspray may cause electrical shock.

On repacking.

Do not throw away the carton and packing materials. They make an ideal container in which to transport the unit. When shipping the unit to another location, repack it in its original material.

Installation

The supply voltage is marked on the ID label located on the rear panel of the monitor. If your local voltage is different, do not use the monitor and contact your supplier before using the display.

To connect your monitor after the video adapter is properly installed:

1.Turn OFF the power to your computer and all its attached options.

2.Position the monitor and the computer so that you can easily get to the back panel of each.
