Section 1: Safety Precautions
Read and observe the following warnings and information below.
1. Before cleaning, always unplug your monitor. It is recommended that you use
dry cloth or lightly damp cloth to clean your monitor. Dry cloth is, however,
the safest. If using damp cloth, wait for your monitor to completely dry before
plugging it in again.
2. Do not use alcohol or ammonia-based cleaner and/or liquids to clean your
monitor.
3. This monitor features ventilation openings on the back of the unit. Avoid blocking
these openings to prevent the monitor from overheating.
4. Avoid placing this monitor near any sources, e.g., portable heaters or heating
vents, as this may cause damage to your monitor.
5. Do not spray cleaner and or any kind of liquid directly onto the monitor’s screen
or any part of the monitor.
6. Do not insert anything into ventilation openings.
7. Always make sure your monitor is placed on a secure, level surface to prevent it
from falling and sustaining damage.
8. Unplug the monitor during extended periods of non-use.
9. Do not place heavy items on the monitor or monitor cables.
10. Do not attempt to disassemble or remove parts from the monitor. Any

Section 4: Connectivity Options
4.1 – Connecting to Headphones
Plug in your headphones, or any 3.5mm-compatible external audio device, to
receive audio signals from your monitor. If your headphones are connected to the
monitor while audio devices are connected to your computer, the audio devices will
not produce sound. Headphones and other audio devices not included.
LinQ Touch (P16CT)
Monitor
Listening to loud audio for prolonged periods of time may permanently
damage your hearing.
4.2 – Connecting to a Computer Using Type-C
Use a standard Type-C cable (included) to connect the LinQ Touch (P16CT) monitor
directly to a computer with a full-featured USB Type-C port that supports DP altmode. The monitor can be used as an extended display.
A single Type-C cable, like the one included, can be used to transfer audio/video/
touch signals and supply power from the computer.
LinQ Touch (P16CT)
Monitor
The power output of every PC/laptop manufacturer is different and may be too low to
consistently power the LinQ Touch (P16CT). For optimal performance, use an external
power supply.

4.3 – Mobile Phone with TV-Out Function
Use the standard Type-C cable (included) to connect the monitor to a Type-C
compatible mobile phone.
LinQ Touch (P16CT)
Monitor
Power Supply
When not connected to an external power source, the mobile phone supplies power
to the LinQ Touch (P16CT). In this case, energy-saving mode will be activated. The
volume and display brightness will be automatically adjusted according to the mobile
phone’s power output.
The power output of every mobile phone manufacturer is different and
may be too low to consistently power the LinQ Touch (P16CT). For optimal
performance, use an external power supply.
When connected to an external power source, the LinQ Touch (P16CT) may
reverse-charge the mobile phone. This helps ensure both devices have enough
working current. For consistency, use 5V/3A or higher power supply.
(Mobile phone charging speeds are determined by the phone manufacturer.)

4.4 – Connecting to the Nintendo Switch
• With an external power supply, the monitor supports one line connection
(standard Type-C) with Switch Host and turns on the Switch TV mode.
• If connecting the LinQ Touch to a 5V power source, the external power only
supplies power to the monitor. The Nintendo Switch will operate using its built-in
battery and deliver 720P signals to the monitor.
• If connecting the LinQ Touch to a 15V power source, the external power may
supply power to both the monitor and the Switch. The Switch will then indicate
that it’s charging and will deliver 1080P signals to the monitor.
The USB ports of some game consoles may supply enough power for the
LinQ, though with limited functionality. For full functionality, always power the
LinQ with an external power source when connecting it to a gaming console.

5V/3A or higher external power source.
• The monitor must also be connected to the computer’s USB 3.0 port using
Type-C to receive touch signals; otherwise, the touch function will not work. Use
a USB to Type-C cable (not provided) if your computer does not have Type-C
ports.
