This product has been specially designed for commercial use. As such, it should be used and operated
only by persons with related expertise.
¥¥
The liquid crystal parts are fabricated using high-precision technology. The screen has effective
pixels that cover more than 99.99% of its area, but pixels may be missing or remain permanently
lighted (red, blue and/or green) in less than 0.01% of the area. This is not indicative of malfunctioning.
¥¥
The LCD panel has been specially finished.
Do not wipe it with hard cloths or rub it heavily as this will damage the surface of the panel.
¥¥
If a still image is displayed continuously for a long period of time, the image may be burnt onto the
screen for some time. (The shadow of the image will usually disappear after moving images are
displayed for while.)
¥¥
The response speed and brightness of the liquid crystals will vary with the surrounding temperature.
