Tips and safety precautions

Thank you for your purchase of the Sharp LCD Multimedia Monitor. To ensure safety and many years of trouble-free operation of your product, please read the safety precautions carefully before using this monitor.

- The TFT colour 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 colours 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 leave the screen displaying idly for long

periods of time, as this could cause an afterimage to remain.

- 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.

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.

The Power Cord

- Do not damage the power cord nor place heavy objects on it, stretch it or over bend it. Also, do not add extension cords. Damage to the cord may result in fire or electric shock.

- Use only the power cord supplied with the monitor.

- Insert the power plug directly into the AC outlet. Adding an extension cord may lead to fire as a result of overheating.

- Do not remove or insert the power plug with wet hands. Doing so could result in electric shock.

Use of AC adapter

- Do not use the AC adapter for other than the specified equipment.

- Unplug the AC adapter if it is not used for long time.

- Do not place any objects on the AC adapter.

- Do not use the AC adapter outdoors.

- Do not attempt to repair the AC adapter if it is broken or malfunctioning. Refer the servicing to the service representative.

- Do not try to open the AC adapter.

- Do not use water or wet cloth for cleaning the AC adapter.

Cautions regarding use of remote control

- Do not expose the remote control to shock. In addition, do not expose the remote control to liquid, and do not place in an area with high humidity.

- Do not install or place the remote control under direct sunlight. The heat may deform the unit.

- The remote control may not work properly if the remote sensor window of the monitor is under direct sunlight or strong lighting. In such case, change the angle of the lighting or monitor, or operate the remote control closer to the remote sensor window.

- Do not use the remote control simultaneously with remote controls of other equipments.

Batteries for the remote control

Before using the monitor for the first time, install two R-03 (“AAA” size, UM/SUM-4) batteries (supplied). When the batteries become depleted and the remote control fails to operate, replace the batteries with new R-03 (“AAA” size, UM/SUM-4) batteries.

CAUTION!

Improper use of batteries can result in chemical leakage and/or explosion. Be sure to follow the instructions below.

- Place batteries with their terminals corresponding to the (+) and (–) indications.

- Different types of batteries have different characteristics. Do not mix batteries of different types.

- Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new batteries can shorten the life of new battery and/or cause the old battery to leak chemicals.

- Remove batteries when they become weak. Chemicals that leak from batteries can cause a rash. If chemical leakage is found, wipe with a cloth.

- The batteries supplied with the product may have a shorter life expectancy due to storage conditions.

- If the remote control will not be used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from the remote control.
