Safety Instruction
Please read through this section carefully and follow the instructions given. In this way you will guarantee reliable operation and a long life for your LCD monitor. Always keep these instructions handy
and close by your LCD monitor. Keep the instructions and the packaging so that if you sell or give away your LCD monitor you can give them to the new owner.
Purpose of use
• This device is only suitable for using in dry, internal rooms.
• This device is intended for personal use only. It not intended for commercial use in a
heavy industry environment. Use under extreme environmental conditions can result in
damage to your device.
Operating Safety
• Never open the housing of the LCD monitor! When the housing is open there is a danger
of injury from electric shock, short-circuit and the danger of fire!
• Do not insert any objects through the slots and openings into the inside of the LCD (electrical
shock, short-circuit and the danger of fire)!
• Slots and openings in the LCD monitor are for ventilation purpose. Do not cover these open-
ings, as otherwise this may lead to overheating (overheating, danger of fire))!
• Do not allow children to play unattended on electrical equipment. Children may not al-
ways correctly recognize danger.
• Prevent children from access to packing material such as foils, because there is risk of
suffocation.
• An injury hazard exists when the display breaks. Wear protective gloves to pack the
broken parts and send them into your service center for proper disposal. Then wash your
hands with soap, because it is possible for chemicals to escape.
• Never exert pressure on the display. This could break the monitor.
• Do not touch the display with your fingers or with sharp objects to avoid damage.
Pull out the mains plug and contact Customer Services, if...
• ... if the power cord is burnt or damaged. Replace the defective power cord with an origi-
nal power cord. Under no circumstances may a defective power cord be repaired.
• ... if the housing of the device is damaged or fluids have leaked into it. Have the TV
checked by customer service first. There may be a life-threatening risk of electrocution!
Repair
• Leave all repairs of your LCD display to authorized and qualified personnel only.
• Should a repair be necessary, please contact one of our authorized service partners only.

Setting up location
• In the first hours of operation, new devices may emit a typical, unavoidable but completely
harmless smell, which will decline increasingly in the course of time.
We recommend you to ventilate the room regularly, in order to counteract the formation of
the smell. During the development of this product, we have made sure that the applicable
limits are clearly fallen below.
• Keep your LCD display away from moisture and avoid dust, heat and direct sunlight.
Failure to observe these instructions can lead to malfunctions or damage to the LCD display.
• Do not operate your device in the open air, because external influences, such as rain,
snow, etc. could damage the device.
• Do not place any containers filled with liquid (vases or similar containers) on the de-
vice. The container could tip over and liquid can impair electrical safety.
• Do not place any open sources of fire (candles or similar objects) on the device.
• Pay attention to sufficiently large clearances in the wall cupboard. Maintain a minimum
clearance of 10 cm around the device for sufficient ventilation.
• Place and operate all units on a stable, level and vibration-free surface in order to avoid
the LCD display from falling.
• Avoid the effects of dazzling, reflections and a too distinct contrast between light
and darkness, in order to protect your eyes.
• Take regulator breaks when working with your LCD monitor in order to avoid tension and
fatigue.
• The optimum viewing distance is 5 times the screen diagonal.
Intended Environment
• The LCD monitor can be operated at an ambient temperatures of between +41°F and +95°F
(5° C to 35° C) and at a relative humidity of between 20% and 85% (without condensation).
• When switched off, the monitor can be stored at between -4°F and +140°F (-20° C - +60° C).
• After transporting your LCD monitor please wait until it has assumed the ambient tempera-
ture before connecting and switching it on. Extremely high variations in the temperature
or humidity may result in condensation forming on the inside of the LCD monitor which
could cause an electrical short-circuit.
Connecting
Observe the following instructions to connect your LCD monitor properly:
Power Supply
• Operate your LCD monitor mains (power supply) only on grounded sockets with AC 100-
240V~/ 50-60 Hz. If you are not sure about the power supply at your location, check with your
power company.
• For additional safety we recommend use of an excessive voltage protection device to pro-
tect your LCD monitor from damage resulting from voltage surges or lightning.
• To interrupt the LCD monitor from mains (power supply) disconnect the plug from the
socket.
• The power socket must be in the vicinity of your LCD monitor and within reach of the
power cables.
• If you use an extension cable, ensure that it fulfills the VDE requirements. Please ask
your electrician.
• You should lay the LCD Monitor cables in a manner that no one can trip or step on it.
• To avoid damage of cable do not place any objects or furniture on the cable.
• Your device has an On and Off switch. The LCD monitor can be switched on or off by means
of it. No electricity is consumed if the switch is at OFF (0).
