3-Wire Cable Configuration
• When using a 3-Wire cable configuration there is no
control line. The external control device must put the
Monitor into the "change into remote control adjust-

Maintenance
Cleaning the screen
1. Here’s a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a
soft cloth in a mixture of lukewarm water and a little fabric softener or
dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’s almost dry, and then
use it to wipe the screen.
2. Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry
before you turn on your Monitor.
Cleaning the cabinet
To remove dirt or dust, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
Please be sure not to use a wet cloth.
Extended absence
If you leave your Monitor dormant for a long time (such as a
vacation), it’s a good idea to unplug the power cord to protect
against possible damage from lightning or power surges.
- Early malfunction can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of
time you will have with your new Monitor. Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the
power cord before you begin any cleaning.
