Tips and safety precautions

- The TFT color LCD panel used in this monitor is

made with the application of high precision
technology. However, there may be minute
points on the screen where pixels never light or
are permanently lit. Also, if the screen is viewed
from an acute angle there may be uneven colors
or brightness. Please note that these are not
malfunctions but common phenomena of LCDs
and will not affect the performance of the
monitor.

- Do not display a still picture for a long period, as

this could cause a residual image.

- If the brightness is adjusted to the minimum

setting it may be difficult to see the screen.

- The quality of the computer signal may influence

the quality of the display. We recommend using
a computer able to emit high quality video
signals.

- Never rub or tap the monitor with hard objects.

- Please understand that SHARP Corporation

bears no responsibility for errors made during
use by the customer or a third party, nor for any
other malfunctions or damage to this product
arising during use, except where indemnity
liability is recognized under law.

- This monitor and its accessories may be

upgraded without advance notice.

- Be sure to observe the following when viewing a

stereoscopic (3D) display.

- If you feel eyestrain, headache, symptoms
similar to motion sickness, or other unusual
symptoms, immediately stop looking at the
screen and take a rest. If the symptom does not
subside after a rest, consult a doctor.

- If you continue looking at the 3D display for a
long time, every 30 minutes give your eyes a
rest by taking a break of about 30 minutes.

- Do not allow children under the age of 16 to
view the 3D display in order to protect the
development of their eyes.

Location

- Do not use the monitor where ventilation is poor,
where there is a lot of dust, where humidity is
high, or where the monitor may come into
contact with oil or steam, as this could lead to
fire.

- Ensure that the monitor does not come into
contact with water or other fluids. Ensure that no
objects such as paper clips or pins enter the
monitor as this could lead to fire or electric
shock.

- Do not place the monitor on top of unstable
objects or in unsafe places. Do not allow the
monitor to come into contact with strong shocks
or vibrations. Causing the monitor to fall or
topple over may damage it.

- Do not use in places where the monitor will be
subject to direct sunlight, near heating
equipment or anywhere else where there is
likelihood of high temperature, as this may lead
to generation of excessive heat and outbreak of
fire.

- When carrying the monitor, firmly grasp both the
display and stand section. If the monitor is lifted
by the display only, the stand may abruptly pop
out or move, and this could lead to injury. If the
monitor is inclined, the stand may move and
cause injury.

- Be careful not to allow your fingers to be
pinched between the display and stand.
(Especially in the area of attachment.)

Preparation for 3D display

This product is a 3D-ready LCD monitor which
allows users to see stereoscopic images and
videos without using special glasses. You can
switch between 3D mode for stereoscopic (3D)
display and 2D mode for conventional (2D)
display.

Basic principle

In 3D mode, the parallax barrier divides light so
that the right and left eyes of a viewer receive
different lights. Consequently, the viewer can see
stereoscopic images and videos.
In 2D mode, the parallax barrier does not divide
light. Since the right and left eyes of a viewer
receive the same light, the viewer sees
conventional flat images.
