Safety information

• 

Before setting up the monitor, carefully read all the documentation that 
came with the package.

• 

To prevent fire or shock hazard, never expose the monitor to rain or 
moisture.

• 

Never try to open the monitor cabinet. The dangerous high voltages 
inside the monitor may result in serious physical injury.

• 

If the power supply is broken, do not try to fix it by yourself. Contact a 
qualified service technician or your retailer.

• 

Before using the product, make sure all cables are correctly connected 
and the power cables are not damaged. If you detect any damage, 
contact your dealer immediately.

• 

Slots and openings on the back or top of the cabinet are provided for 
ventilation. Do not block these slots. Never place this product near or 
over a radiator or heat source unless proper ventilation is provided.

• 

The monitor should be operated only from the type of power source 
indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to 
your home, consult your dealer or local power company.

• 

Use the appropriate power plug which complies with your local power 
standard. 

• 

Do not overload power strips and extension cords. Overloading can 
result in fire or electric shock.

• 

Avoid dust, humidity, and temperature extremes. Do not place the 
monitor in any area where it may become wet. Place the monitor on a 
stable surface.

• 

Unplug the unit during a lightning storm or if it will not be used for a 
long period of time. This will protect the monitor from damage due to 
power surges.

• 

Never push objects or spill liquid of any kind into the slots on the 
monitor cabinet.

• 

To ensure satisfactory operation, use the monitor only with UL listed  
computers which have appropriate configured receptacles marked 
between 100 ~ 240V AC.

• 

The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be 
easily accessible 

• 

If you encounter technical problems with the monitor, contact a 
qualified service technician or your retailer.

• 

Provide an earthing connection before the mains plug is connected to 
the mains. And, when disconnecting the earthing connection, be sure 
to disconnect after pulling out the mains plug from the mains.
