PRECAUTIONS IMPORTANT! * The manufacturer is not responsible for damage or malfunction caused by improper connection. The power cord should be connected directly to a standard wall power outlet. Location of the caution statements on the back panel. Risk of electric shock. Do not open. Risque de choc electrique. Ne pas ouvrir. Gefahr des elektrischen schlages. Rückwand nicht entfernen. The equipment must be connected to a grounded main outlet.
E WARNING • If the LCD monitor begins to emit smoke, smells like something is burning, or makes strange noises, disconnect all power connections immediately and contact your dealer for advice. Attempting to use a malfunctioning LCD monitor can be dangerous. • Do not dismantle the cabinet or modify the LCD monitor. Dismantling the cabinet or modifying the monitor may result in electric shock or burn. • Keep small objects away from the LCD monitor.
• The equipment must be connected to a grounded main outlet. Failure to do this may result in an electric shock. • Handle the power cord with care. * Do not place the cord underneath the LCD monitor or other heavy objects. * Do not pull on the cord. * Do not bend, bundle or tie up the cord. * Never attempt to repair a damaged cord. If the power cord becomes damaged, stop using it. Use of a damaged cord may result in fire or electric shock. • To disconnect the power cord, grasp the plug firmly and pull.
• Set the LCD monitor in an appropriate location. * Do not install in a dusty or humid environment. E * Do not place near water. * Do not place in a location where light shines directly on the screen. * Do not place near heat generating devices or a humidifier. CAUTION • At the end of the day, or if you plan to leave the LCD monitor unused for an extended period, turn off the main power switch and disconnect the power cord from the wall socket so that no power connections are made.
• Use an easily accessible power outlet. This will ensure that you can disconnect the power quickly in case of a problem. • Do not block the ventilation slots on the cabinet. * Do not place books or any other papers on the ventilation slots. * Do not install the monitor in a closed space. * Do not use the monitor laying down or upside down. * Do not remove the tilt-swivel stand. Using the monitor in this way blocks the ventilation slots and prevents proper airflow, leading to fire or other damage.
