CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO

NOT REMOVE COVER. NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

This symbol warns the user that uninsulated voltage within the unit may have sufficient magnitude to cause electric shock. Therefore, it is dangerous to make any kind of contact with any part inside of this unit.

This symbol alerts the user that important literature concerning the operation and maintenance of this unit has been included. Therefore, it should be read carefully in order to avoid any problems.

WARNING

TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARDS, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. ALSO DO NOT USE THIS UNIT'S POLARIZED PLUG WITH AN EXTENSION CORD RECEPTACLE OR OTHER OUTLETS, UNLESS THE PRONGS CAN BE FULLY INSERTED. REFRAIN FROM OPENING THE CABINET AS THERE ARE HIGH-VOLTAGE COMPONENTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

DOC compliance Notice

This Class A digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations.

WARNING

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

Warnings and Safety Precaution

The NEC MultiSync Multimedia monitors XP29 Plus and XM29 Plus are designed and manufactured to provide long, trouble-free service. No maintenance other than cleaning is required. Use a soft cloth and if necessary, mild detergent. Do not use commercial spray cleaners which may damage the surface. In case of damage, arrange for repairs at an authorized NEC Service Center.

For operating safety and to avoid damage to the unit, read carefully and observe the following instructions.

To avoid shock and fire hazards:

1. Provide adequate space for ventilation to avoid internal heat buildup. Do not cover rear vents or install in a closed cabinet or shelves. The unit is equipped with cooling fans on the top. If you enclose the unit in a cabinet or rack, be sure there is adequate space at the top of the unit to allow heated air to rise and escape. A cabinet or shelves in which the unit is placed must be maintained below

2. Do not use the power cord polarized plug with extension cords or outlets unless the prongs can be completely inserted.

3. Do not expose unit to rain or moisture.

4. Avoid damage to the power cord, and do not attempt to modify the power cord.

5. Unplug unit during electrical storms or if unit will not be used over a long period.

40°C

6. Do not open the cabinet which has potentially dangerous high voltage components inside. If the unit is damaged in this way the warranty will be void. Moreover, there is a serious risk of electric shock.

7. Do not attempt to service or repair the unit. NEC is not liable for any bodily harm or damage caused if unqualified persons attempt service or open the back cover. Refer all service to authorized NEC Service Centers.

To avoid damage and prolong operating life:

1. Use only with 100-120V/220-240V 50/60Hz AC power supply. Continued operation at line voltages other than 100-120V/220-240 Volts

will shorten the life of the unit, and might even cause a fire hazard.

2. Handle the unit carefully when moving and do not drop.

3. Locate set away from heat, excessive dust, and direct sunlight.

4. Protect the inside of the unit from liquids and small metal objects. In case of accident, unplug the unit and have it serviced by an authorized NEC Service Center.

5. Unplug unit before cleaning. Use only a soft cloth and mild detergent. Commercial household sprays and cleaners may damage the CRT surface and cabinet.

6. Stacking of units, one top of another, may result in damage to the units. Stacking is not recommended.

Cet appareil numérigue de la classe A respecte toutes les exigences du Réglement sur le Matériel Brouilleur du Canada.

Mises en garde et précautions de sécurité

Les moniteurs MultiSync Multimédia XP29 Plus et XM29 Plus de NEC ont été conçus et fabriqués pour assurer une longue durée de service sans problèmes. Aucun entretien à l’exception du nettoyage n’est nécessaire. Utiliser un chiffon doux et un détergent doux, si nécessaire. Ne pas utiliser des aérosols de nettoyage du commerce qui risquent d’endommager la surface de cet appareil. Si l’appareil est endommagé, confier les travaux de réparation à un centre de service agréé NEC.

Pour un fonctionnement sûr et afin d’éviter d’endommager l’appareil, lire attentivement et respecter les instructions suivantes.

Afin d’éviter tout risque d’électrocution et d’incendie:

1. Réserver un espace libre suffisant pour la ventilation afin d’éviter une accumulation de chaleur interne. Ne pas couvrir les trous d’aération arrière ou installer l’appareil dans un coffret fermé ou sur une étagère. L’appareil est équipé d’ailettes de refroidissement sur le dessus. Si l’appareil est logé dans un coffret ou sur une étagère, s’assurer qu’il y a un espace libre suffisant pour la dissipation de la chaleur. Si l’appareil est posé sur un coffret ou une étagère, la température doit être maintenue en dessous de 40°C.

2. Ne pas utiliser la fiche polarisée du cordon d’alimentation avec des prolongateurs ou des prises de courant, sauf si les lames peuvent être insérées à fond.

3. Ne pas exposer à la pluie ou à l’humidité.

4. Eviter d’endommager le cordon d’alimentation, et ne pas modifier le cordon d’alimentation.

5. Débrancher l’appareil pendant les tempêtes ou si l’appareil n’est pas utilisé pendant une longue période.

6. Ne pas ouvrir le coffret. Des composants de haute tension se trouvent à l’intérieur. Si l’appareil est endommagé de cette manière, la garantie devient caduque. De plus, il y a risque d’électrocution.

7. Ne pas essayer de réparer ou entretenir l’appareil soi-même. NEC ne saura être tenu pour responsable pour toute blessure ou dommage causé par des personnes non qualifiées qui essayent de réparer ou d’ouvrir le couvercle arrière. Confier toute réparation à un centre de service agréé NEC.

Pour éviter des dommages et prolonger la durée de service de l’appareil:

1. N’utiliser qu’une source d’alimentation de 100-120 V/220-240V 50/60 Hz CA. Le fait d’utiliser l’appareil en continu à des tensions de ligne supérieures à 100-120/220-240 Volts CA réduit sa durée de vie et risque de provoquer un incendie.

2. Manipuler l’appareil avec soin pendant son déplacement et ne pas le faire tomber.

Eloigner l’appareil des endroits chauds, très poussiéreux et exposés en plein soleil.

4. Eviter que des liquides et des petits objets métalliques pénètrent à l’intérieur de l’appareil. En cas d’accident, débrancher l’appareil et le confier à un centre de service agréé NEC.

5. Débrancher l’appareil avant le nettoyage. Utiliser seulement un chiffon doux et un détergent doux. Des aérosols et produits de nettoyage disponibles dans le commerce risquent d’endommager l’écran et le coffret.

6.Ne pas empiler les unités les unes sur les autres, afin

endommager.
