Current information regarding TCO'99 approved and
labelled products may also be obtained via the Internet,
using the address: http://www.tco-info.com/
Congratulations!
You have just purchased a TCO'99 approved and
labelled product! Your choice has provided you with a
product developed for professional use. Your purchase
has also contributed to reducing the burden on the
environment and also to the further development of
environmentally adapted electronics products.
Why do we have environmentally labelled
computers?
In many countries, environmental labelling has become
an established method for encouraging the adaptation of
goods and services to the environment. The main
problem, as far as computers and other electronics
equipment are concerned, is that environmentally
harmful substances are used both in the products and
during their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to
satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics
equipment, most of these potentially damaging
substances sooner or later enter nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such
as energy consumption levels, that are important from
the viewpoints of both the work (internal) and natural
(external) environments. Since all methods of electricity
generation have a negative effect on the environment
(e.g. acidic and climate-influencing emissions,
radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics
equipment in offices is often left running continuously
and thereby consumes a lot of energy.
What does labelling involve?
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99
scheme which provides for international and
environmental labelling of personal computers. The
labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the
TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional
Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The
Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and Statens
Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy
Administration).
Approval requirements cover a wide range of issues:
environment, ergonomics, usability, emission of electric
and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical
and fire safety.
The environmental demands impose restrictions on the
presence and use of heavy metals, brominated and
chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and
chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product
must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is
obliged to have an environmental policy which must be
adhered to in each country where the company
implements its operational policy.
The energy requirements include a demand that the
computer and/or display, after a certain period of
inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a lower
level in one or more stages. The length of time to
reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.
Labelled products must meet strict environmental
demands, for example, in respect of the reduction of
electric and magnetic fields, physical and visual
ergonomics and good usability.
Below you will find a brief summary of the environmental
requirements met by this product. The complete
environmental criteria document may be ordered from:
Environmental requirements
Flame retardants
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards,
cables, wires, casings and housings. Their purpose is to
prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30%
of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame
retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain
bromine or chloride, and those flame retardants are
chemically related to another group of environmental
toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants containing
bromine or chloride and the PCBs are suspected of
giving rise to severe health effects, including
reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals,
due to the bio-accumulative* processes. Flame
retardants have been found in human blood and
researchers fear that disturbances in foetus
development may occur.
The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic
components weighing more than 25 grams must not
contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine
or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed
circuit boards since no substitutes are available.
Cadmium**
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the
colour-generating layers of certain computer displays.
Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in
high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that
batteries, the colour-generating layers of display
screens and the electrical or electronics components
must not contain any cadmium.
Mercury**
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and
switches. It damages the nervous system and is toxic in
high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that
batteries may not contain any mercury. It also demands
that mercury is not present in any of the electrical or
electronics components associated with the labelled unit.
There is however one exception. Mercury is, for the time
being, permitted in the back light system of flat panel
monitors as there today is no commercially available
alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when
a mercury free alternative is available.
CFCs (freons)
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither
CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufacture
and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are
sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards.
CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the
ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing increased
reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased
risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) as a
consequence.
Lead**
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens,
solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous
system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning. The
relevant TCO'99 requirement permits the inclusion of
lead since no replacement has yet been developed.
* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which
accumulate within living organisms.
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which
are Bio-accumulative.

Conseils et mesures de sécurité
- Le panneau couleur LCD TFT utilisé dans ce
moniteur est fabriqué avec une technologie de
haute précision. Cependant, il peut avoir
quelques points minuscules sur l'écran où les
pixels ne s'allument jamais ou sont allumés en
permanence. De plus, si l'écran est regardé
avec un angle aigu, les couleurs ou la
luminosité peuvent paraître inégales. Noter que
ce n'est pas un mauvais fonctionnement mais un
phénomène courant des écrans LCD et que cela
n'affecte aucunement les performances du
moniteur.
- Ne pas afficher une image fixe pendant une
longue période car cela pourrait provoquer
l'apparition d'une image récurrente.
- Si la luminosité est ajustée à son réglage
minimum, il peut s'avérer difficile de consulter le
moniteur.
- La qualité du signal de l'ordinateur peut
influencer la qualité de la diffusion du moniteur.
Il est recommandé d'utiliser un ordinateur
capable d'émettre des signaux vidéo de haute
qualité.
- Ne jamais heurter ou taper sur le moniteur avec
des objets durs.
- Évitez de modifier, de démonter, ou de réparer le
moniteur vous même. En ce faisant vous risquez
de provoquer un incendie, de vous électrocuter
ou de vous blesser.
- Prendre garde de ne pas se coincer les doigts
entre l'écran et le support.
- Il faut savoir que la Sharp Corporation décline
toute responsabilité en cas d'erreur survenue
durant l'utilisation par le client ou une tierce
personne, ainsi qu'en cas de dysfonctionnement
ou d'un endommagement causé au produit en
cours d'utilisation, excepté lorsque qu'un
dédommagement sous garantie est reconnu par
la loi.
- Ce moniteur ainsi que ces accessoires sont
susceptibles d'évoluer sans avis préalable.
Lieu d'installation
- Ne pas utiliser le moniteur dans un endroit
faiblement ventilé, poussiéreux, relativement
humide, ou encore là où il est susceptible
d'entrer en contact avec de l'huile ou de la
vapeur car cela pourrait provoquer un début
d'incendie.
- Les ouvertures de ventilation et autres orifices
dans le châssis sont conçus pour la ventilation.
Ne pas couvrir ou bloquer ces ouvertures de
ventilations et orifices car une ventilation
insuffisante peut provoquer une surchauffe et/ou
abréger la durée de vie du moniteur. Ne pas
installer le moniteur sur un lit, un divan, une
couverture ou sur d'autres surfaces similaires ou
dans un espace clos car ils pourraient bloquer
les ouvertures de ventilation.
- S'assurer que le moniteur ne sera pas entrer en
contact avec de l'eau ou d'autres fluides.
S'assurer que des agrafes ou des attaches
trombones ne pénètrent pas à l'intérieur du
moniteur car cela pourrait provoquer un début
d'incendie ou des chocs électriques.
- Ne pas installer le moniteur au-dessus d'objets
instables ou dans des endroits peu sûrs. Faire
attention que le moniteur ne reçoive pas de
chocs important ni de vibrations. Laisser tomber
le moniteur peut l'endommager sérieusement.
- Ne pas utiliser le moniteur dans des endroits où
il est susceptible d'être exposé à la lumière
directe du soleil, à proximité d'une source de
chaleur ou partout ailleurs où il risque d'être
soumis à des températures élevées ; cela peut
mener à des dégagements excessifs de chaleur
et conduire à un début d'incendie.
Le cordon d'alimentation électrique
- Ne pas endommager le cordon d'alimentation,
ne pas déposer d'objets lourds sur le cordon, ne
pas l'étendre ni le plier de manière excessive.
Ne pas y ajouter de rallonge non plus. Tout
endommagement du cordon d'alimentation peut
entraîner un début d'incendie ou des chocs
électriques.
- Utilisez uniquement le cordon d'alimentation
fourni avec le moniteur.
- Insérer la prise d'alimentation directement dans
la prise de secteur. Ajouter une rallonge peut
entraîner une surchauffe, voire un début
d'incendie.
- Ne débranchez pas ni ne branchez la prise
d'alimentation avec des mains humides. En le
faisant, vous risquez l'électrocution.
- Débrancher le cordon d'alimentation s'il n'est
pas utilisé pendant une longue période.
- Ne pas essayer de réparer le cordon
d'alimentation s'il est cassé ou fonctionne mal.
Laisser le soin de l'entretien au technicien.
