Installation
The equipment should be installed near an easily accessible outlet.
Do not install or leave the monitor:
In places subject to extreme temperatures, for example near a radiator, heating vent, or in direct
sunlight. Subjecting the LCD monitor to extreme temperatures, could cause deformations of the
casing or malfunctions.
Provide adequate ventilation to the monitor, do not block the ventilation holes.
In places subject to mechanical vibration or shock.
Near any equipment that generates a strong magnetic field.
In places subject to inordinate amounts of dust, dirt, or sand, for example near an open window
or an outdoor exit.
If setting up temporarily in an outdoor environment, be sure to take adequate precautions
against airborne dust and dirt.
Otherwise irreparable malfunctions could occur.
The handles are intended to be used in the monitor installation phase only (for more detail see
the Mounting Instruction chapter).
When the monitor is assembled in the medical system, take care of the anchorage of all cables,
to avoid unwanted detachment.
Any external connection with other peripherals must follow the requirements of clause 16 of
IEC60601-1 3rd ed. and Table BBB.201 of IEC 60601-1-1 for the medical electrical systems

Handling
Do not press on or scratch the LCD screen. Do not place a heavy object on the LCD screen. This
may cause the screen to lose uniformity or cause LCD panel malfunctions.
If the monitor is used in a cold place, a residual image may appear in the screen. This is not a
malfunction.
The screen returns to normal as the temperature rises to a normal operating level.
If a still picture is displayed for a long time, a residual image may appear for a while. The residual
image will eventually disappear.
The LCD panel becomes warm during operation. This is not a malfunction.

Maintenance
Be sure to unplug the power cord from the mains when cleaning your LCD monitor.
The front polarizer can be easily damaged. Take care not to scratch the front surface with any hard
or abrasive material. Dust, finger marks, grease etc. can be removed with a soft damp cloth (a
small amount of mild detergent can be used on the damp cloth). Do not apply water or detergent
directly to the front surface as this may cause staining or damage the electronic components.
Never use any solvent on the front polarizer or module as this may cause permanent damage.
Wipe off water drop immediately. Long contact with water may cause discoloration spots.
When the panel surface is soiled, wipe it with absorbent cotton or other soft cloth.
