OPERATING SAFETY

• The TV device must not be subjected to drips or sprayed water on any account.

• Do not allow children to play unattended with electrical equipment. Children may not

always correctly recognize danger.

• This display is intended for personal use only. It not intended for commercial use in a heavy industry environment.

• An injury hazard exists when the display breaks. Wear protective gloves to pack the bro- ken 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.

• Never open the housing of the display! When the housing is open there is a

danger of injury from electric shock!

• Do not insert any objects through the slots and openings of the monitor. This may lead to an electrical short-circuit or even fire resulting in damage to your display.

• Slots and openings in the display are for ventilation purpose. Do not cover these openings, as this may lead to overheating.

English Deutsch Français Italiano

Contact the Call Center immediately in any of the following situations. Do NOT plug in or turn on your display:

♦ if the power cable/power supply overheats or is damaged

♦ if liquid has gotten into the monitor

♦ if the display is dropped or the housing damaged

REPAIR

• Leave all repairs of your display to authorized and qualified personnel only.

• Should a repair be necessary, please contact one of our authorized service partners only.

NOTES FOR SERVICE ENGINEERS

• Before opening the housing, disconnect the product from all power sources and re- move any connecting cables. If the display has not been disconnected from the power

outlet before being opened, there is a danger to life through electric shock. There is also a risk of damage to the components.

• Internal components of the display may be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Carry out repairs in an ESD-protected workshop. If no such workshop is available, wear an antistatic wrist strap or touch a highly conductive metal object. We can repair damage sustained by inappropriate handling for a fee.

POINT OF USE

• Keep your display 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 display.

• Do not place any containers filled with liquid (vases or similar) on the TV. The con-

tainer could tip over and the liquid could impair electrical safety.

• Do not place any open sources of fire (candles or similar objects) onto the TV device.

• Pay attention to sufficiently large distances in the wall unit. Maintain a minimum

distance 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 display from falling.

• The optimum viewing distance is 5 times the screen diagonal.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

• The display can be operated most reliably at ambient temperatures between +41°F and +95°F

(5° C to 35° C) and at a relative humidity between 20% and 85% (without condensation).

• When switched off, the monitor can be stored most reliably between +14°F and +140°F (-

10° C - +60° C), up to the maximum height of 39,000 ft (12,000 m) above sea level at a relative humidity between 10% and 85% (without condensation).

• After transporting your display please wait until it has assumed the ambient temperature

before connecting and switching it on. Extremely high variations in the temperature or humidity may result in condensation forming on the inside of the display which could cause an electrical short-circuit.

CONNECTING

Observe the following instructions to connect your display properly:

POWER SUPPLY

• Operate your display only with grounded outlets with AC 230V/240V~ 50 Hz. If you are not

sure about the power supply at your location, check with your power company.

• Use only power connection cable provided.

• For additional safety we recommend use of a surge protector to protect your display from

damage resulting from voltage surges or lightning.

• To remove the display from the power supply, disconnect the plug from the AC outlet.

• The mains switch installed does not detach the TV from the mains supply completely.

• The power outlet must be in the vicinity of your display and within reach of the power

cables. DO NOT stretch the power cables tightly to reach a power outlet.

• You should arrange the display cables in a manner that no one can trip over or step on

them.

• To avoid damage of cable do not place any objects or furniture on the cable.

REMOTE OPERATION

• Open the battery compartment of the remote by removing the cover.

• Insert Micro / AAA type batteries into the battery compartment on the back of the re-

mote. Pay attention to the polarity of the batteries (marked on the base of the battery compartment) at the same time.

• Environmental note: Batteries, also non-metal ones – must not be disposed of in the

domestic waste. Used batteries must be put into the used battery collection container at the seller or into public disposal facilities.

STANDARDS/ELECTRO-MAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY

Your display fulfils the requirements for electro-magnetic compatibility and electrical safety specified in the following standards:

EN 55013, EN 55020, EN 60065, EN 61000-3-2, EN 61000-3-3

• Provide a space of at least three feet from high-frequency and magnetic sources of

interference (television sets, loudspeakers, mobile telephones, etc.) in order to avoid

malfunctions.

ERGONOMICS

• For ergonomic reasons we suggest not to use dark text with a blue background. This would

cause bad readability and would increase eye strain.

• While working with display you should take breaks periodically to avoid tension and

fatigue.

• In order to protect your eyes and to create a pleasant working area you should avoid glare,

reflections and strong contrasts on the screen.

TRANSPORT AND RECYCLING

• Keep the original packaging and use it to protect the display during transport or storage.

English Deutsch Français Italiano
