Warnings

and Safety Precautions

The monitor is designed and manul_ctured
to provide
long, trouble-free service. No maintenance other than
cleaning is required. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the
panel. Never use solvents such as alcohol or thinner to
clean the panel surface.
The display panel consists of fine picture elements (cells).
Although the display panels are produced with more than
99.99 percent active cells, there may be some cells that do
not produce light or remain lit.
For operating safety and to avoid damage to the unit, read
carefully and observe the following instructions.
To avoid shock and fire hazards:
1.

Provide adequate space for ventilation to avoid
internal heat build-up. Do not cover rear vents or
install in a closed cabinet or shelves.
The unit is equipped with cooling fans. If you install
the unit in an enclosure, be sure there is adequate
space at the top of the unit to allow hot air to rise and
escape.

IMPORTANT TIPS: Caring for Your
Monitor

7.

Like all phosphor-based
display devices, monitors can
be susceptible to uneven phosphor aging under cellain
circumstances. Certain operating conditions, such as
the continuous display of a static image over a
prolonged period of time, can result in uneven
phosphor aging if proper precautions are not taken. To
protect your investment in this monitor, please adhere
