• Do not use monitor in high temperature, humid, dusty, or oily areas.
• If monitor or glass is broken, do not come in contact with the liquid crystal and handle with
care.
• Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor, so that heat can properly dissipate. Do not
block ventilated openings or place the monitor near a radiator or other heat sources. Do not
put anything on top of the monitor.
• The power cable connector is the primary means of detaching the system from the power
supply. The monitor should be installed close to a power outlet, which is easily accessible.
• Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for transporting.
• Please clean the holes of back cabinet to reject dirt and dust at least once a year because of
set reliability.

• Use the preset Size and Position controls with standard signals.
• Use the preset Color Setting.
• Use non-interlaced signals.
• Do not use primary color blue on a dark background, as it is dicult to see and may produce
eye fatigue due to insucient contrast.
