Safety and Precautions
Operating Safety
• Do not allow children to play unattended on electrical equipment. Children may not always
correctly recognize danger.
• Keep the packing materials, such as foil away from children. The danger of suffocation
could arise in the case of misuse.
• Never open the housing of the TFT monitor (electric shock, short-circuit and the danger of
fire)!
• Do not insert any objects through the slots and openings into the inside of the TFT (elec-
trical shock, short-circuit and the danger of fire)!
• Slots and openings in the TFT monitor are for ventilation purpose. Do not cover these open-
ings, as otherwise this may lead to overheating (overheating, danger of fire)!
• Never exert pressure on the display. This could break the monitor.
• Attention: 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.
• Do not touch the display with your fingers or with sharp objects to avoid damage.
Please proceed as outlined in the Customer Service section:
• if the power cable overheats or is damaged
• if liquid has gotten into the monitor
• if the TFT monitor is dropped or the housing damaged
Point of use
• 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 TFT monitor and all units connected to it away from moisture and avoid dust,
heat and direct sunlight. Failure to observe these instructions can lead to malfunctions or
damage to the TFT monitor.
• 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 device.
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 TFT monitor from falling.
• Avoid dazzle, reflections, extreme light/dark contrast in order to save your eyes and
ensure a pleasant, ergonometric work station.
• Take regulator breaks when working with your TFT monitor in order to avoid tension and
fatigue.

Repair
• Leave all repairs of your TFT monitor to authorized and qualified personnel only.
• Should a repair be necessary, please contact one of our authorized service partners only.
Intended Environment
• The TFT 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), up to the maximum height of 39,000 ft (12,000 m) above sea level at a relative humidity
of between 20% and 80% (without condensation).
• After transporting your TFT monitor please wait until it has assumed the ambient temperature
before connecting and switching it on. Extremely high variations in the temperature or hu-
midity may result in condensation forming on the inside of the TFT monitor which could cause
an electrical short-circuit.
Power Supply
Please pay attention: Pats of the device are still live, even if the mains switch is
switched off. Pull the mains plug out of the socket, to interrupt the power supply to
your TFT monitor or to release the device from voltage completely.
• Operate your TFT 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 TFT monitor from damage resulting from voltage surges or lightning.
• To interrupt the TFT monitor from mains (power supply) disconnect the plug from the socket.
• To avoid power consumption when the device is switched off either pull out the power plug
when the device is not used or connect the device to a master-/slave power bar.
• The power socket must be in the vicinity of your TFT monitor and within reach of the power
cables. DO NOT stretch the power cables tightly to reach a power socket.
• If you use an extension cable, ensure that it fulfills the VDE requirements. Please ask your
electrician.
• You should lay the TFT 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 TFT monitor can be switched on or off by means of
it. No electricity is consumed if the switch is at OFF (0). Set the On/Off switch to OFF or use
a master/slave power strip to avoid consuming electricity when the equipment has been
switched off.

Standards/Electro-Magnetic Compatibility
Your monitor fulfils the requirements for electro-magnetic compatibility and electrical safety specified in the following standards:
EN 55022 Information technology equipment - Radio disturbance characteristics – Limits
and methods of measurement.
EN 55024 Information technology equipment – Immunity characteristics - Limits and
methods of measurement.
EN 60950 Safety of information technology equipment.
• When connecting ensure that Guidelines for Electro-Magnetic Compatibility (EMC) are
observed.
• Provide an interval of at least one meter from high-frequency and magnetic sources of in-
terference (television sets, loudspeakers, mobile telephones, etc.) in order to avoid malfunc-
tions and data loss.
• Trotzt modernster Fertigung kann es auf Grund der hochkomplexen Technik in seltenen Fällen
zu Ausfällen von einzelnen oder mehreren Leuchtpunkten kommen.
Your device corresponds to the ISO 13406-2 Class II (Pixel Error Class) European Norm (see page
17).
FCC Compliance Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will
not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced technician for help.
