Appendix E: For Your Safety
WARNING
ALWAYS OPERATE UNDER THE SPECIFIED POWER SUPPLY Usage of incorrect voltage will cause malfunction and may
cause fire or electric shock.
PROTECT AND USE THE CABLE CORRECTLY Do not pull or bend the power cable and VGA cable or place the
monitor or any heavy objects on the cables. If the cables are damaged, they may cause fire or electric shock.
STOP OPERATING THE MONITOR IMMEDIATELY WHEN YOU DETECT ANY ABNORMAL OCCURRENCE
If you notice any abnormal phenomenon such as strange noises, smoke, or unusual smells, unplug the monitor and contact your dealer or the nearest service center immediately.
DO NOT REMOVE THE CABINET Removing the cabinet may expose you to the danger of fire or
electric shock.
DO NOT PUT ANY FOREIGN OBJECT INSIDE THE MONITOR Operating the monitor with foreign objects inside may cause
fire, electric shock, or damage.
DO NOT USE THE MONITOR NEAR WATER Operating the monitor in close proximity to water where the
water may be spilled or splashed onto the monitor may cause fire or electric shock.
BAD WEATHER CONDITIONS It is not advisable to operate the monitor during heavy
thunderstorms as intermittent breaks in power may cause malfunction. Do not touch the plug under these circumstances as it may cause electric shock.
16
CAUTION
DISCONNECT CABLES WHEN MOVING THE MONITOR When moving the monitor, always turn off the switch, unplug
the monitor, and disconnect the VGA cable. If the cables are not properly disconnected when moving the monitor, fire or electric shock may ensue.
DO NOT TOUCH THE PLUG WITH WET HANDS Pulling or inserting the plug with wet hands may cause electric
shock.
HOLD THE PLUG WHEN DISCONNECTING To disconnect the power cable or VGA cable, always pull the
cable by the plug. Never pull on the cable as this may cause fire or electric shock.
OTHERS
ERGONOMIC RECOMMENDATIONS Do not operate the monitor in a dark room or against a bright
background. For optimal viewing comfort, the monitor should be just below eye level and 16-24 inches (40-60 cm) away from your eyes. When using the monitor over a prolonged period of time, a ten-minute-break per hour is recommended.
17
Special Notes On LCD Monitors
The following conditions are normal with LCD monitors and do not indicate a problem.
• When turning on the LCD monitor for the first time, the
picture may not fit in the display area. This is because of the type of computer being used. In this case, adjust the picture position to its correct position. (See the section, “Operating the Monitor”.)
• The screen may flicker during initial use. Turn off the power
switch and then turn it on again; the flickering should disappear.
• Users may notice some uneven brightness on the screen
depending on the desktop pattern they use. It is normal for LCD monitors to show such uneven brightness.
• Due to the nature of LCD screens, switching to a new image
following prolonged use of the same image may render the screen unable to display the new image. In this case, the screen is recovered slowly by changing the image or by turning off the power switch for hours.
• If the screen becomes dark, flickers, or does not light up,
contact your dealer or the nearest service center for a backlight replacement. Do not attempt to replace it yourself.
• If you need to return your unit for service and the original
packaging was discarded, please contact your dealer or the nearest service center for advice or replacement of packaging.
