SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Continued)

19. Batteries — Incorrect use of batteries may cause the batteries to burst or ignite. A leaky battery may corrode the equipment, dirty your hands or spoil your clothing. In order to avoid these problems, make sure to observe the precautions below:

•Use the specified batteries only.

•Install the batteries with due attention to the plus (+) and minus (-) sides of the batteries according to the instructions in the compartment.

•Do not mix old and new batteries.

•Do not mix batteries of different types. Voltage specifications of batteries of the same shape may vary.

•Replace an exhausted battery with a new one promptly.

•If you will not use the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries.

•If leaked battery fluid gets on your skin or clothing, rinse immediately and thoroughly. If it gets into your eye, bathe your eye well rather than rubbing and seek medical treatment immediately. Leaked battery fluid that gets into your eye or your clothing may cause a skin irritation or damage your eye.

20. Usage of the monitor must not be accompanied by fatal risks or dangers that, could lead directly to death, personal injury, severe physical damage or other loss, including nuclear reaction control in nuclear facility, medical life support system, and missile launch control in a weapon system.

21. Do not stay in contact with the parts of the product that become hot for long periods of time. Doing so may result in low-temperature burns.

22. Do not modify this product.

WARNING:

This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.

To maintain compliance with EMC regulations, use shielded cables to connect to the following terminals: DVI-D output terminal, DVI-I input terminal, PC/AV HDMI input terminal, PC/AV D-SUB input terminal, RS-232C input/output terminals, and DisplayPort input/output terminals.

If a monitor is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, it can be potentially hazardous due to falling. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

•Using fixing devices like wall mount brackets recommended by the manufacturer.

•Only using furniture that can safely support the monitor.

•Ensuring the monitor is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

•Not placing the monitor on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the monitor to a suitable support.

•Not standing the monitors on cloth or other materials placed between the monitor and supporting furniture.

•Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the monitor or its controls.

Especially for child safety

-Don’t allow children to climb on or play with the monitor.

-Don’t place the monitor on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.

-Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially on a “larger than life” monitor. Care should be taken to place or install the monitor where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.

-Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the monitor so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children.

TIPS AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

-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.

-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.

-Do not use the monitor where there is a lot of dust, where humidity is high, or where the monitor may come into contact with oil or steam. Do not use in an environment where there are corrosive gases (sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen dioxide, chlorine, ammonia, ozone, etc.). 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 receive strong shocks or to strongly vibrate. Causing the monitor to fall or topple over may damage it.

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

-Do not use the monitor in places where it may be exposed to direct sunlight. Risk of cabinet deformation and failure if the monitor is used in direct sunlight.

-Please be sure to constantly remove dust and garbage that has attached to the ventilation opening. If dust collects in the ventilation opening or the inside of the monitor, it may lead to excessive heat, outbreak of fire, or malfunction.

Please request a cleaning of the inside of the monitor from an authorized SHARP servicing dealer or service center.

-Images cannot be rotated on this monitor.

When using in portrait orientation, you will need to prepare appropriately orientated content in advance.

-The AC outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.

The Power Cord

-Use only the power cord supplied with the monitor.

-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.

-Do not use the power cord with a power tap.

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.

-Unplug the power cord if it is not used for a long time.

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

TIPS

•Using this monitor’s screen-size switching or dual-screen display functions to compress or expand the screen for commercial or public viewing in establishments like cafes or hotels may infringe on the rights of the creators, as protected by Copyright Law, so please be careful.

•When “Enlarge” is set, the screen size is fixed to “WIDE” mode.

•When dual-screen display is selected, the screen size cannot be changed.

•The appearance of the original video may change if you select a screen size with a different aspect ratio than the original image (e.g. TV broadcast or video input from external equipment).

•When an ordinary non-wide image (4:3) is viewed with the whole screen using the screen-size switching function of this monitor, the edge of the image may be lost or appear distorted. If you wish to respect the creator’s intentions, set the screen size to “NORMAL”.

•When playing commercial software, parts of the image (like subtitles) may be cropped. In this case select the optimal screen size using the screen-size switching function of this monitor. With some software, there may be noise or distortion at the edges of the screen. This is due to the characteristics of the software, and is not a malfunction.

•Depending on the original image size, black bands may remain at the edges of the screen.
