safety warnings and guidelines. Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

other containers with moisture on or near the device. If moisture does get in or on

the device, immediately unplug it from the power outlet and allow it to fully dry

before reapplying power.

 Do not touch the monitor, the power cord, or any other connected cables with wet

hands.

 Do not place the monitor on an unstable surface where it could fall and cause either

personal injury or damage to the monitor and/or other equipment.

 Do not subject the monitor to extreme force, shock, or fluctuations in temperature

or humidity.

 Do not expose this monitor to excessively high temperatures. Do not place it in, on,

or near a heat source, such as a fireplace, stove, radiator, etc. Do not leave it in

direct sunlight.

 Do not place or install this monitor in an area where it can be exposed to excessive

amounts of dust, humidity, oil, smoke, or combustible vapors.

 Do not block the ventilation holes in the monitor's casing. Do not place the monitor

in a confined space with inadequate ventilation. Periodically check the ventilation

holes to ensure they do not become clogged with dust, debris, or nearby items.

 Prior to operation, check the monitor and power cord for physical damage. Do not

use if physical damage has occurred.

 Before plugging the monitor into a power outlet, ensure that the outlet provides

the same type and level of power required by the device.

 Unplug this monitor from the power source when not in use.

crimped, pinched, walked on, or become tangled with other cords. Ensure that the

luminance, color gamut, bit depth, and rise time. This monitor has been certified to meet or

exceed VESA DisplayHDR™ 400 performance criteria for the following:

 True 8-bit image quality –on par with top 15% of PC displays today
 Global dimming –improves dynamic contrast ratio
 Peak luminance of 400 cd/m

For more information on the VESA DisplayHDR standard and performance criteria, please
