Safety Instructions
Before connecting the AC power cord to the DC adapter outlet, make sure the voltage
1
designation of the DC adapter corresponds to the local electrical supply.
Never insert anything metallic into the cabinet openings of the liquid crystal display (LCD)
2
TV/Monitor; doing so may create the danger of electric shock.
To avoid electric shock, never touch the inside of the LCD TV/Monitor. Only a qualified
3
technician should open the case of the LCD TV/Monitor.
Never use your LCD TV/Monitor if the power cord has been damaged. Do not allow
4
anything to rest on the power cord, and keep the cord away from areas where people can
trip over it.
Be sure to hold the plug, not the cord, when disconnecting the LCD TV/Monitor from an
5
electric socket.
Openings in the LCD TV/Monitor cabinet are provided for ventilation. To prevent
6
overheating, these openings should not be blocked or covered. Also, avoid using the LCD
TV/Monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, or other soft surface. Doing so may block the ventilation
openings in the bottom of the cabinet. If you put the LCD TV/Monitor in a bookcase or
some other enclosed space, be sure to provide adequate ventilation.
Put your LCD TV/Monitor in a location with low humidity and a minimum of dust.
7
Do not expose the LCD TV/Monitor to rain or use it near water (in kitchens, near swimming
8
pools, etc.). If the LCD TV/Monitor accidentally gets wet, unplug it and contact an
authorized dealer immediately. You can clean the LCD TV/Monitor with a damp cloth when
necessary, but be sure to unplug the LCD TV/Monitor first.
Place the LCD TV/Monitor on a solid surface and treat it carefully. The screen is made of
9
thin glass with a plastic front surface and can be damaged if dropped, hit or scratched. Do
not clean the front panel with keton-type materials (e.g., acetone), ethyl alcohol, toluene,
ethyl acid, methyl, or chloride – these may damage the panel.
Locate your LCD TV/Monitor near an easily accessible AC outlet.
10
If your LCD TV/Monitor does not operate normally – in particular, if there are any unusual
11
sounds or smells coming from it – unplug it immediately and contact an authorized dealer
or service center.
High temperature can cause problems. Don’t use your LCD TV/Monitor in direct sunlight,
12
and keep it away from heaters, stoves, fireplaces, and other sources of heat.
Unplug the LCD TV/Monitor when it is going to be left unused for an extended period of
13
time.
Unplug your LCD TV/Monitor from the AC outlet before any service.
