EMC NO TICE FOR THE PURCH ASER/USER OF THE APPARATUS

1. Applicable standards and operating environment (BT-LH2550E)

The apparatus is compliant with:

• standards EN55103-1 and EN550103-2 1996.and

• electromagnetic environments E1, E2, E3 and E4

2. Pre-requisite conditions to achieving compliance with the above standards

<1> Peripheral equipment to be connected to the apparatus and special connecting cables

• The purchaser/user is urged to use only equipment which has been recommended by us as peripheral equipment to be connected to the apparatus.

• The purchaser/user is urged to use only the connecting cables described below.

<2> For the connecting cables, use shielded cables which suit the intended purpose of the

apparatus.

• Video signal connecting cables Use double shielded coaxial cables, which are designed for 75-ohm type high-frequency applications, for SDI (Serial Digital Interface). Coaxial cables, which are designed for 75-ohm type high-frequency applications, are recommended for analog video signals.

• Audio signal connecting cables If your apparatus supports AES/EBU serial digital audio signals, use cables designed for AES/EBU. Use shielded cables, which provide quality performance for high-frequency transmission applications, for analog audio signals.

• Other connecting cables (IEEE1394, USB) Use shielded cables, which provide quality performance for high-frequency applications, as connecting cables.

• When connecting to the DVI signal terminal, use a cable with a ferrite core.

• If your apparatus is supplied with ferrite core(s), they must be attached on cable(s) following instructions in this manual.

3. Performance level

The performance level of the apparatus is equivalent to or better than the performance level required by these standards.

However, the apparatus may be adversely affected by interference if it is being used in an EMC environment, such as an area where strong electromagnetic fields are generated (by the presence of signal transmission towers, cellular phones, etc.). In order to minimize the adverse effects of the interference on the apparatus in cases like this, it is recommended that the following steps be taken with the apparatus being affected and with its operating environment:

1. Place the apparatus at a distance from the source of the interference.

2. Change the direction of the apparatus.

3. Change the connection method used for the apparatus.

4. Connect the apparatus to another power outlet where the power is not shared by any other

appliances.

Precautions for Use

• The LCD screen is manufactured to precise specifications. Although over 99.99% of the pixels function normally,

0.01% of the pixels are either missing or constan tly lit (red, blue or green). This is nor mal and not a cause for concern.

• The liquid crystal protection panel is a specially manufactured component. Wiping it with a hard cloth, or rubbing it vigorously will scratch the surface.

• If a still image is displayed for an extended period of time, it may generate a temporar y afterimage (phosp hor burn-in). (However , such images can be removed by displaying normal video for a while.)

• The response speed and brightness of liquid crystal vary with ambient temperatures.

• Let authorized service person handle installation.

Be sure to consult with the service person about the installation. Make sure that the wall is s trong enough to endure the weight of this unit including the mount fittings. If not strong enough, it may fall off resulting in injury.

• Do not install the unit in a place exposed to direct sunlight, as it may damage the cabinet and the LCD screen.

• Do not install the unit in locations where enough space cannot be provided around it as heat may build up inside

preventing normal operation. Be sure to provide enough space around the unit.

• Exposing the LCD screen to intense light sources will impair its characteristics and lower image quality.

• In an environment exposed to drastic temperature fluctu ations, condensation may build up on and inside the

LCD screen. This may lower the quality of the screen and may damage it.

• Some video images may appear blurred on the screen.

• Leaving the unit in a location exposed to hig h temperature and humidity for an extended period of time m ay

damage the LCD screen and cause blurring.
