where people could trip over it.
l Be sure to grasp the plug, not the cable, when disconnecting the monitor from an electric socket.
l Openings in the monitor cabinet are provided for ventilation. To prevent overheating, these openings should not be blocked or covered. Avoid using the
monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, or other soft surface, as doing so may block the ventilation openings in the bottom of the cabinet. If you place the monitor
in a bookcase or an enclosed space, be sure to provide adequate ventilation and air flow.
l Place your monitor in a location with low humidity and minimum dust. Avoid places similar to a damp basement or dusty hallway.
l Do not expose the monitor to rain or use it near water (in kitchens, next to swimming pools, etc.). If the monitor accidentally gets wet, unplug it and
contact an authorized dealer immediately. You can clean the monitor with a damp cloth when necessary, being sure to unplug the monitor first.
l Place the monitor on a solid surface and treat it carefully. The screen is made of glass and can be damaged if dropped or hit sharply.
l Locate your monitor near an easily accessible electric outlet.
l If your monitor does not operate normally - in particular, if there are any unusual sounds or smells coming from it - unplug it immediately and contact an
authorized dealer or service center.
l Do not attempt to remove the back cover, as you will be exposed to an electrical shock hazard. The back cover should only be removed by qualified
service personnel.
l High temperatures can cause problems. Don't use your monitor in direct sunlight, and keep it away from heaters, stoves, fireplaces, and other sources
of heat.
l Unplug the monitor when it is going to be left unused for an extended period of time.
