Safe storage
 Safe storage of the LCD Monitor is in a range of minus 20 to plus 60 Celsius
(68°F - 149°F). Storing the LCD Monitor out of this range could result in perma-
nent damage.
Image Persistence
 Image persistence is when a residual or ghost image of a previous image
remains visible on the screen. Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors' image per-
sistence is not permanent, but constant images being displayed for a long
period of time should be avoided.
 To alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as the previous
image was displayed. For example, if an image was on the monitor for one hour
and a residual image remains, the monitor should be turned off for one hour to
erase the image.
Placement and Adjustment of the Monitor
 For optimum performance of the system, one hour warm-up is recommended.
 Adjust the monitor height so that the top of the screen is at or slightly below eye
level. Your eyes should look slightly downward when viewing the middle of the
screen.
 Rest your eyes periodically by focusing on an object farther away and blinking
often.
 Position the monitor at a 90 degree angle to windows and other light sources to
minimize glare and reflections. Adjust the monitor tilt so that ceiling lights do not
reflect on your screen.
 You can use an anti-glare filter to have a better view out of the reflected light.
 Clean the LCD monitor surface with a lint-free, non-abrasive cloth. Avoid using
any cleaning solution or glass cleaner.
 Adjust the monitor’s brightness and contrast controls to enhance readability.
 Avoid displaying fixed patterns on the monitor for long periods of time to avoid
image persistence (residual image).
Battery Related
 When you remove the batteries from the remote control, keep the batteries out
of the reach of children. If a child swallows the battery, consult your doctor
immediately.
 When replacing the batteries, insert the batteries with the correct polarities (+, -
). If the batteries are inserted incorrectly, the batteries may implode or the inter-
nal chemicals may leak, which may result in fire, injury or contaminate the envi-
ronment.
Note! As with all personal display devices, Kostec recommends using a mov-
ing screen saver at regular intervals whenever the screen is idle or turn-
ing off the Monitor when not in use.
Note! For optimal view, 20-inch distance from your eyes to the screen is rec-
ommended.
