The power supply cord is used as the main disconnect device. Ensure that
an outlet is located near the monitor and is easily accessible.

ENVIRONMENT

● Do not install the monitor outdoors or in any hostile environment. To
prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose monitor to rain or moisture.
Avoid placing the monitor in places subject to extreme temperature such
as direct sunlight or near a heating appliance/equipment (such as
amplifiers, etc) as this may result to overheating and damage.

● This monitor is designed to be used in the office or home. Do not subject it
to vibrations, dust, or corrosive gases.

● To obtain a clear picture, do not expose screen to direct illumination
or sunlight. Using the monitor against a bright background or where
sunlight or other light sources shines directly on the monitor can increase
eye discomfort.

WIRING

● Unplug the main cord from the socket when wiring cables for safety. Take
care not to catch your feet on the cables.

POWER CORD

● Neither the monitor itself nor any other heavy object should rest on
the power cord.

● Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched. Especially

at the plugs, convenience receptacles and the point where they exit
from the monitor.

● Firmly grasp the plug when disconnecting the power cord. Do not pull the
power cord itself.

● Do not modify or damage the cord. Damage to a power cord can cause fire
or electric shock.

● Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding type plug. A grounding

type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong.

● This monitor is designed to operate on 100-240V AC supply. Do not

connect too many appliances to the same outlet as this can cause electric
shock.

MOUNTING

● Place the monitor on a secure table or have it properly mounted to the wall.
Do not hang anything on the monitor.

Caution: The wall mount must bear a minimum of five times the monitor’s net
weight without causing damage. To mount your monitor to the wall,
you will need to remove the base before attaching the wall mount.

A. Place the monitor face down on a surface that is soft, yet strong enough
to hold the monitor.
B. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws from the four holes on each side
of the bottom of the monitor’s base (only use with base)
C. Make sure all cables are already connected to the monitor.
D. Follow the directions included with the wall mount to mount the monitor

to the wall.

INACTIVE

● Unplug the monitor when unused for long periods of time.

VENTILATION

● Never cover or block the ventilation slits in the monitor. Ventilation slits

are provided to prevent the temperature from rising. A minimum distance
of at least 10 cm should be maintained around the unit for sufficient
ventilation.

● Never insert any foreign object, metal or liquid into the ventilation slits, as

this could result in fire or electric shock.

● Do not install the DVR or other equipment too close to the monitor.

Keep equipment at least 30 cm away from the monitor.

WATER AND MOISTURE

● The monitor should not be exposed to dripping or splashing. No
objects filled with liquids should be placed on the monitor.

● Do not use the monitor near water.

● Do not touch the monitor or cable with wet hands as this may cause

electric shock or damage.

CLEANING

● Unplug the unit from the wall outlet before cleaning.

● Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a dry soft lint-free cloth for

cleaning. If the dust is persistent, wipe with a slightly damp cloth.

SERVICE

● Use only the power source and connections appropriate for the monitor as
indicated on the marking label.

● If the power cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled, objects

have fallen into the apparatus, apparatus has been exposed to rain or
moisture, does not operate manually, or has been dropped, the product
needs servicing.
