Table of Contents

Precaution

On Safety

 Operate the unit only with a power source as specified

in the “Specifications” section.

 A nameplate indicating operating voltage, etc., is

located on the rear panel.

 Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet,

unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.

 Do not drop or place heavy objects on the power cord.

If the power cord is damaged, turn off the power
immediately. It is dangerous to use the unit with a
damaged power cord.

 Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be

used for several days or more.

 Disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet by

grasping the plug, not by pulling the cord.

 The socket-outlet shall be installed near the

equipment and shall be easily accessible.

On Installation

 Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat

build-up.
Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.)
or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block
the ventilation holes.

 Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources

such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or
shock.

When installing the installation space must be secured
in consideration of the ventilation and service operation.

 Do not block the ventilation slots, and vents of the

fans.

 Leave a space around the unit for ventilation.
 Leave more than 40 cm of space in the rear of the unit

to secure the operation area.
When the unit is installed on the desk or the like, leave at
least 10 cm of space in the top side. Leaving 40 cm or
more of space in the rear of the unit is recommended for
service operation.

Handling the Screen

 The OLED panel fitted to this unit is manufactured

with high precision technology, giving a functioning

pixel ratio of at least 99.99%. Thus a very small

proportion of pixels may be “stuck”, either always off

(black), always on (red, green, or blue), or flashing. In
addition, over a long period of use, because of the
physical characteristics of the organic light-emitting
diode, such “stuck” pixels may appear spontaneously.
These problems are not a malfunction.

 Do not leave the screen facing the sun as it can damage

the screen. Take care when you place the unit by a
window.

 Do not push or scratch the monitor’s screen. Do not

place a heavy object on the monitor’s screen. This may
cause the screen to lose uniformity.

 The screen and the cabinet become warm during

operation. This is not a malfunction.

On Burn-in

Due to the characteristics of the material used in the
OLED panel, permanent burn-in or reduction in
brightness may occur.
These problems are not a malfunction.

Images that may cause burn-in

 Still images in the HDR display
 Masked images with aspect ratios other than 17:9
 Color bars or images that remain static for a long time
 Character or message displays that indicate settings or

the operating state

 On-screen displays such as center markers or area

markers

For details on the HDR (High Dynamic Range) display, see
page 21.

To reduce the risk of burn-in

 Turn off the character and marker displays

Press the MENU button to turn off the character
displays. To turn off the character or marker displays
of the connected equipment, operate the connected
equipment accordingly. For details, refer to the
operation manual of the connected equipment.

 Do not display static images that contain high

brightness display, time codes, markers, or logos for
extended periods. Consider applying a display method
with low level signals of 100% or less.

 Turn off the power when not in use

Turn off the power if the monitor is not to be used for
a prolonged period of time.

Screen saver

This product has a built-in screen saver function to
reduce burn-in. When an almost still image is displayed
for more than 10 minutes, the screen saver starts
automatically and the brightness of the screen decreases.

Precaution

9

On a Long Period of Use

Handling and Maintenance of the

Due to an OLED’s panel structure and characteristics of
materials in its design, displaying static images for
extended periods, or using the unit repeatedly in a high
temperature/high humidity environments may cause
image smearing, burn-in, areas of which brightness is
permanently changed, lines, or a decrease in overall
brightness.

In particular, continued display of an image smaller than
the monitor screen, such as in a different aspect ratio,
may shorten the life of the unit.
Avoid displaying a still image for an extended period, or
using the unit repeatedly in a high temperature/high
humidity environment such an airtight room, or around
the outlet of an air conditioner.

To prevent any of the above issues, we recommend
reducing brightness slightly, and to turn off the power
whenever the unit is not in use.

On High Brightness Display

 Using the unit with the high brightness display for

extended periods may cause eyestrain or reduction of
eyesight. Be sure to take an occasional break when
using.

 Follow RECOMMENDATION ITU-R BT.1702

“Guidance for the reduction of photosensitive
epileptic seizures caused by television” or other
guidelines when using.

 In the HDR display, the display surface may emit heat

when high brightness images are output. Do not touch
the surface.

For details on the HDR (High Dynamic Range) display, see
page 21.

Screen

The surface of the screen is specially coated to reduce
image reflection. Make sure to observe the following
points as improper maintenance procedures may impair
the screen’s performance. In addition, the screen is
vulnerable to damage. Do not scratch or knock against it
using a hard object.

 Be sure to disconnect the AC power cord from the AC

outlet before performing maintenance.

 The surface of the screen is specially coated. Do not

attach adhesive objects, such as stickers, on it.

 The surface of the screen is specially coated. Do not

touch the screen directly.

 Wipe the screen surface gently with the supplied

cleaning cloth or a soft dry cloth to remove dirt.

 Stubborn stains may be removed with the supplied

cl eaning cloth, or a sof t cloth slightly d ampened wi th a
mild detergent solution.

 The screen may become scratched if the cleaning cloth

is dusty.

 Never use strong solvents such as alcohol, benzene,

thinner, acidic or alkaline detergent, detergent with
abrasives, or chemical wipe as these may damage the
screen.

 Use a blower to remove dust from the screen surface.

On Dew Condensation

If the unit is suddenly taken from a cold to a warm
location, or if ambient temperature suddenly rises,
moisture may form on the outer surface of the unit and/
or inside of the unit. This is known as condensation. If
condensation occurs, turn off the unit and wait until the
condensation clears before operating the unit. Operating
the unit while condensation is present may damage the
unit.

On the Surface of the Unit

The surface of the unit becomes extremely hot. Do not
touch the surface with your hand or body during power
distribution. It may cause a burn.

On Long Periods of Continuous Use

Using this unit for extended periods may cause eyestrain
or reduction of eyesight.
As soon as you feel physical discomfort or pain, stop
using this unit immediately and take a break.
If the physical discomfort or pain remains even after
taking a break, consult a physician.

10

Precaution

On Repacking

Do not throw away the carton and packing materials.
They make an ideal container which to transport the
unit.

Disposal of the Unit

 Do not dispose of the unit with general waste.

Do not include the monitor with household waste.

 When you dispose of the monitor, you must obey the

law in the relative area or country.

On Fan Error

The unit has a built in fan for cooling. When the fan
stops and the  (Power) switch indicator blinks in red,

 The black bars appear at the left and right positions

of the display  When the signal aspect ratio is
different from that of the panel, the black bars appear.
This is not a failure of the unit.

 Adjustments and settings cannot be made 

Adjustments and settings may not be possible
depending on the input signals and the status of the
unit. See “Input Signals and Adjustable/Setting Items”
