SAFETY AND TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION

Safety precautions and maintenance

WARNING: Use of controls, adjustments or procedures other than those specified in this documentation may result in exposure to shock, electrical hazards and/or mechanical hazards.

Read and follow these instructions when connecting and using your monitor:

Operation:

• Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight and away from stoves or any other heat source.

• Remove any object that could fall into ventilation holes or prevent proper cooling of the monitor’s electronics.

• Do not block the ventilation holes on the cabinet.

• When positioning the monitor, make sure the power plug and outlet are easily accessible.

• If turning off the monitor by detaching the power cor d, wait for 6 seconds bef or e attaching the power cord for normal operation.

• Please use approved power cord provided by Philips all the time. If your power cord is missing, please contact with your local service center.

• Do not subject the monitor to severe vibration or high impact conditions during operation.

• Do not knock or drop the monitor during operation or transportation.

Maintenance:

• To protect your monitor from possible damage, do not put excessive pressure on the LCD panel. When moving your monitor, grasp the frame to lift; do not lift the monitor by placing your hand or fingers on the LCD panel.

• Unplug the monitor if you are not going to use it for an extensive period of time.

• Unplug the monitor if you need to clean it with a slightly damp cloth. The screen may be wiped with a dry cloth when the power is off. How e ver, never use organic solvent, such as, alcohol, or ammonia-based liquids to clean y our monitor.

• To avoid the risk of shock or permanent damage to the set, do not expose the monitor to dust, rain, water, or excessive moisture environment.

• If your monitor gets wet, wipe it with dry cloth as soon as possible.

• If foreign substance or water gets in your monitor, please turn the power off immediately and disconnect the power cord. Then, remove the foreign substance or water, and send it to the maintenance center.

• Do not store or use the monitor in locations exposed to heat, direct sunlight or extr eme cold.

• In order to maintain the best performance of your monitor and use it f or a longer lif etime, please use the monitor in a location that falls within the following temperature and humidity ranges.

- Temperature: 0 ~ 40 C 32-95 F

- Humidity: 20-80% RH

IMPORTANT: Always activate a moving screen saver program when y ou lea v e y our monitor unattended. Al wa ys activate a periodic screen refresh application if your monitor will display unchanging static content. Uninterrupted display of still or static images over an extended period ma y cause “burn in”, also known as “after-imaging” or “ghost imaging”, on your screen. "Burn-in", "after-imaging", or "ghost imaging" is a well-known phenomenon in LCD panel technology. In most cases, the “burned in” or “afterimaging” or “ghost imaging” will disappear gradually ov er a period of time after the power has been switched off.

WARNING: Severe "burn-in" or "after-image" or "ghost image" symptoms will not disappear and cannot be repaired. The damage mentioned above is not covered under your warranty.

User Manual BDL4681XU

Service:

• The casing cover should be opened only by qualified service personnel.

• If there is any need for any document for repair or integration, please contact with your local service center.

• Do not leave your monitor in a car/trunk under direct sun light.

Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally, or you are not sur e what pr ocedur e to take when the operating instructions given in this manual have been followed.

Read and follow these instructions when connecting and using your computer monitor:

• Unplug the monitor if you are not going to use it for an extensive period of time.

• Unplug the monitor if you need to clean it with a slightly damp cloth. The screen may be wiped with a dry cloth when the power is off. Howev er, never use alcohol, solvents or ammonia-based liquids.

• Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally when you have followed the instructions in this manual.

• The casing cover should be opened only by qualified service personnel.

• Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight and away from stoves or any other heat source.

• Remove any object that could fall into the vents or prevent proper cooling of the monitor’s electronics.

• Do not block the ventilation holes on the cabinet.

• Keep the monitor dry. To avoid electric shock, do not expose it to rain or excessive moisture.

• If turning off the monitor by detaching power cable or DC power cord, wait for 6 seconds before attach the power cable or DC power cord for normal operation.

• To av oid the risk of shock or permanent damage to the set do not expose the monitor to rain or excessive moistur e.

• When positioning the monitor, make sure the power plug and outlet are easily accessible.

• IMPORTANT: Always activate a screen saver program during your application. If a still image in high contrast remains on the screen for an extended period of time, it may leave an “afterimage” or “ghost image” on the front of the screen. This is a well-known phenomenon that is caused by the shortcomings inherent in the LCD technology. In most cases the afterimage will disappear gradually over a period of time after the power has been switched off. Be aware that the after-image symptom cannot be repaired and is not covered under warranty.

INFORMATION FOR UK ONLY

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. Important:

This apparatus is supplied with an appro ved moulded 13A plug. To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:

1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.

2. Fit new fuse which should be a BS 1362 5A,A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.

3. Refit the fuse cover. If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an

appropriate 3-pin plug fitted in its place. If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 5A. If a plug without a fuse

is used, the fuse at the distribution board should not be greater than 5A. Note: The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it

be inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.

How to connect a plug

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: BLUE - “NEUTRAL” (“N”) BROWN - “LIVE” (“L” ) GREEN & YELLOW - “EARTH”(‘E”)

1. The GREEN AND YELLOW wire must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter “E” or by the Earth symbol or coloured GREEN

or GREEN AND YELLOW.

2. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “N” or coloured BLACK.

3. The BR O WN wir e must be connected to the terminal which mark ed with the letter “L” or coloured RED.

Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the lead - not simply over the three wires.
