How to Install the Monitor

Mounting precautions

• Mounting the monitor on the wall requires special expertise and the work must be performed by an authorized SHARP dealer. You should never attempt to perform any of this work yourself. Our company will bear no responsibility for accidents or injuries caused by improper mounting or mishandling.
• This monitor is designed to be installed on a concrete wall or pillar. Reinforced work might be necessary for some materials such as plaster / thin plastic board / wood before starting installation. This monitor and bracket must be installed on a wall which can endure at least 4 times or more the weight of the monitor. Install by the most suitable method for the material and the structure.
• This monitor can not be installed in a vertical orientation.
• Since the monitor is heavy, consult your dealer before installing, removing or moving the monitor.
• When installing, removing or moving the monitor, ensure that this is carried out by at least 2 people.
• When moving the monitor, be sure to hold it with the handles both on the rear and the unit bottom. Do not hold the LCD panel. This may cause product damage, failure, or injury.
• This monitor should be used at an ambient temperature between 32°F (0°C) and 104°F (40°C). Provide enough space around the monitor to prevent heat from accumulating inside.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. If the temperature inside the monitor rises, this could lead to a malfunction.
• Do not place the monitor on a device which generates heat.

Attaching the setup stand

Before performing work spread cushioning over the base area to lay the monitor on. This will prevent it from being damaged.

Preparation

Caution
• Please note that the setup stand is for temporary use only until the monitor is properly mounted.
• Attach the stand in the correct direction.
• Be sure to follow the instructions. Incorrect installation of the stand may result in the monitor falling over.

Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
• When the unit is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.
• Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the LCD panel to malfunction.
• Storage temperature: -4°F to +140°F (-20°C to +60°C).
This unit is equipped with a microprocessor. Its performance could be adversely affected by incorrect operation or interference. If this should happen, unplug the unit and plug it in again after more than 5 minutes.
