Small parts can present choking hazard if accidentally swallowed. Keep small parts away from young children.

Discard unneeded small parts and other objects, including packaging materials and plastic bags/sheets to prevent them from being played with by young children, creating the potential risk of suffocation.

Do not place the Display on sloped or unstable surfaces, and ensure that the Display does not hang over the edge of the base.

The Display may fall off or tip over.

•

Install this unit at a location with minimal vibration and which can support the weight of the unit.

Dropping or falling of the unit may cause injury or

•

malfunction.

Do not place any objects on top of the Display.

Transport only in upright position!

Transporting the unit with its liquid crystal panel

•

facing upright or downward may cause damage to the internal circuitry.

Cautions for Wall or Pedestal Installation

The installation should be performed by an installation

•

professional. Installing the Display incorrectly may lead to an accident that results in death or serious injury. Use the optional Pedestal. (see page 6)

When installing on a wall, a wall hanging bracket that

•

conforms to VESA standards must be used.

VESA 400 × 400 (see page 9)

Before installation, be sure to check if the mounting

•

location has enough strength to support the weight of the LCD display and the wall hanging bracket for anti drop.

If you terminate the use of the Display on the Wall or

•

Precautions for use

Cautions when installing

Do not set up the Display outdoors.

The Display is designed for indoor use.

•

Install this unit at a location which can support the weight of the unit.

Use the installation bracket that conforms to VESA

•

standards

Environmental temperature to use this unit

When using the unit where it is below 1 400 m (4 593

•

ft) above sea level: 0 °C to 40 °C (32 °F to 104 °F)

When using the unit at high altitudes (1 400 m (4 593

•

ft) and higher and below 2 800 m (9 186 ft) above sea level): 0 °C to 35 °C (32 °F to 95 °F)

Do not install the unit where it is 2 800 m (9 186 ft) and higher above sea level.

Failure to do so may shorten the life of the internal

•

parts and result in malfunctions.

We are not responsible for any product damage, etc. caused by failures in the installation environment even during the warranty period.

Required space for ventilation

When using the pedestal, leave a space of 10 cm

•

(3 15/16”) or more at the top, left and right, and 5 cm (1 31/32”) or more at the rear, and also keep the space between the bottom of the display and the floor surface.

If using some other setting-up method (wall-hanging, etc.), follow the manual of it. (If there is no specific indication of installation dimension in the installation manual, leave a space of 10 cm (3 the top, bottom, left and right, and 5 cm (1 31/32”) or more at the rear.)

Minimum distance:

Operation of this unit is guaranteed up to an ambient

•

temperature of 40 °C (104 °F). When installing the unit in a case or chassis, be sure to provide adequate ventilation with a cooling fan or ventilation hole so that the surrounding temperature (inside the case or chassis) including the temperature of the front surface of the liquid crystal panel can be kept at 40 °C (104 °F) or less.

Be careful of the movable structure of the power indicator and remote control sensor.

As factory default, the power indicator and remote

•

control sensor are stored in the main unit. For normal use, pull out the remote control sensor from the edge side of the main unit by operating the lever on the rear panel. Depending on the setup condition such as when using the multi display, store the remote control sensor in the main unit. (see page 17)

Do not grab the liquid crystal panel.

Do not forcibly press the liquid crystal panel, or push

•

it with a pointed object. Applying a strong force to the liquid crystal panel will cause unevenness of the screen display, resulting in malfunction.

Depending on the temperature or humidity conditions, uneven brightness may be observed. This is not a malfunction.

This unevenness will disappear while applying current

•

continuously. If not, consult the distributor.

Notes on Using Wired LAN

When setting up the Display at a place, where electric statistic occurs often, take a sufficient antistatic measure before start using.

When the Display is used at a location, where static

•

electricity occurs often, such as on a carpet, a wired LAN or DIGITAL LINK communication is disconnected more often. In that case, remove static electricity and the noise source that may cause problems with an antistatic mat, and re-connect the wired LAN or DIGITAL LINK.

In rare cases, the LAN connection is disabled due

•

to static electricity or noise. In that case, turn off the power of the Display and the connected devices once and then re-turn on the power.

The Display may not work properly due to strong radio wave from the broadcast station or the radio.

If there is any facility or equipment, which outputs

•

strong radio wave, near the installation location, set up the Display at a location sufficiently far from the source of the radio wave. Or, wrap the LAN cable connected to the DIGITAL LINK / LAN terminal by using a piece of metal foil or a metal pipe, of which is grounded at both ends.
