Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the LMDDM50/DM30/DM20
The LMD-DM50/DM30/DM20 is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are
controlled. The customer or the user of the LMD-DM50/DM30/DM20 can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a
minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (Transmitters) and the LMD-DM50/DM30/DM20 as
recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

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
• Do not leave the LCD screen facing the sun as it can
damage the LCD screen. Take care when you place the
unit by a window.
• Do not push or scratch the LCD screen. Do not place
a heavy object on the LCD screen. This may cause the
screen to lose uniformity.
• If the unit is used in a cold place, a residual image may
appear on the screen. This is not a malfunction. When
the unit becomes warm, the screen returns to normal.
• The screen and the cabinet become warm during
operation. This is not a malfunction.
Even if it is used properly, the unit may cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception. Try the
following measures to correct it.
• Increase the distance between the unit and the radio/
TV.
• Connect the unit to a different outlet from the one to
which the radio/TV is connected.
Protective Filter
The LCD panel comes with an anti-reflection-coated
protective filter. The surface is very delicate. Do not rub
or hit with hard objects.
• The LCD panel can be used in portrait or landscape
orientation. Make the appropriate settings for display
orientation on your computer.
• Prevent internal heat build-up by allowing adequate
air circulation.
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 near heat sources such as
radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or
shock.
• Do not place the unit near equipment which generates
magnetism, such as a transformer or high voltage
power lines.
About the LCD Panel
• The LCD 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 or flashing. In addition, over a long period
of use, because of the physical characteristics of the
liquid crystal display, such “stuck” pixels may appear
spontaneously. This is not a malfunction.
On Burn-in
Permanent burn-in may occur if still images are
displayed in the same position on the LCD panel
continuously, or repeatedly over extended periods.
Images that may cause burn-in
• Images that remain static for a long time
• Character or message displays that indicate settings or
operating state
To reduce the risk of burn-in
• Turn on the screensaver function
Turn on the screensaver or enable the standby mode to
avoid permanent burn-in of an image displayed for an
extended period on the LCD panel.
• Turn off the power when not in use
Turn off the power if the unit is not to be used for an
extended period of time.
Precaution
9
On Long Periods of Use
Recommendation to Use More
Due to the characteristics of the LCD panel, displaying
static images for extended periods, or using the unit
repeatedly in 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 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 to
turn off the power whenever the unit is not in use.
On Cleaning
• When cleaning the unit, remove the AC power cord
from the unit and the wall outlet for your safety.
• Wipe off dust on the unit surface with a soft cloth.
Dampen it lightly in mild soap solution to wipe off
grease.
• Do not spray insecticides and other volatile solutions
on the unit surface. Do not keep rubber or vinyl in
contact with the cabinet for a long time. It could
damage the unit surface and/or the coating could come
off.
• The unit is made of plastic and coated metal plate.
Never use solvents such as benzene or thinner, or acid,
alkaline or abrasive detergent, or a chemical cleaning
cloth for cleaning or disinfection, as they may damage
the unit surface.
• Be careful when handling the LCD panel (protective
filter). The surface is very delicate. Do not rub or hit
with hard objects.
Disposal of the Unit
• Do not dispose of the unit with general waste.
Do not include the unit with household waste.
• The fluorescent tube includes mercury. Dispose of the
unit in accordance with the regulations of your local
sanitation authority.
Than One Unit
As problems can occasionally occur with the unit, if it is
used for safety control of personnel, assets or stable
picture, or for emergencies, we strongly recommend you
use more than one unit, or have a spare unit available.
On Repacking
Do not throw away the carton and packing materials.
They make an ideal container by which to transport the
unit.
If you have any questions about this unit, contact your
authorized Sony dealer.
On Moisture Condensation
If the unit is brought directly from a cold place to a warm
place, or the unit is warm and the ambient temperature
cools suddenly (by air-conditioning, for example),
moisture may condense on the surface or inside of the
unit.
This is called moisture condensation, and is not a
malfunction of the product itself, although it may cause
damage to the unit.
Leave the unit in a condensation free area.
If moisture condensation has occurred, turn off the unit
and do not use it until moisture condensation has
evaporated.
Having the Unit Periodically Cleaned
If the unit is not cleaned for long periods, dust
accumulation inside the unit may cause fire or electric
shock.
Have an authorized Sony dealer clean the unit’s interior
at least once a year.
