Precaution
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. These problems are not a
malfunction.
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.
Handling the LCD Screen
• 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 monitor’s screen. Do not place
a heavy object on the LCD monitor’s screen. This may cause
the screen to lose uniformity.
• If the unit is used in a cold place, horizontal lines or a residual
image may appear on the screen. This is not a malfunction.
When the monitor becomes warm, the screen returns to normal.
• If a fixed picture such as a frame of a divided picture or time
code, or a still picture is displayed for a long time, an image
may remain on the screen and be superimposed as a ghosting
image.
• The screen and the cabinet become warm during operation.
This is not a malfunction.
About the Fluorescent Tube
A specially designed fluorescent tube is installed as the lighting
apparatus for this unit. If the LCD screen becomes dark, unstable
or does not turn on, consult your Sony dealer.
On Cleaning
Before cleaning
Be sure to disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet.
On cleaning the monitor screen
The monitor screen surface is especially treated to reduce
reflection of light. As incorrect maintenance may impair the
performance of the monitor, take care with respect to the
following:
• Wipe the screen gently with a soft cloth such as a cleaning cloth
or glass cleaning cloth.
• Stubborn stains may be removed with a soft cloth such as a
cleaning cloth or glass cleaning cloth lightly dampened with
water.
• Never use solvent such as alcohol, benzene or thinner, or acid,
alkaline or abrasive detergent, or chemical cleaning cloth, as
they will damage the screen surface.
On cleaning the cabinet
• Clean the cabinet gently with a soft dry cloth. Stubborn stains
may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with mild
detergent solution, followed by wiping with a soft dry cloth.
• Use of alcohol, benzene, thinner or insecticide may damage the
finish of the cabinet or remove the indications on the cabinet.
Do not use these chemicals.
• If you rub on the cabinet with a stained cloth, the cabinet may
be scratched.
• If the cabinet is in contact with a rubber or vinyl resin product
for a long period of time, the finish of the cabinet may
deteriorate or the coating may come off.
On Repacking
Do not throw away the carton and packing materials. They make
an ideal container which to transport the unit.
Note on faulty pixels on 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 (red, green, or blue), or
On Mounting on a Rack
Leave 1U space empty above and below the monitor to ensure
adequate air circulation or install a fan to maintain the monitor’s
performance.
If you have any questions about this unit, contact your authorized
Sony dealer.
