10. Health and Safety Precautions
Only qualified persons are authorized to carry out maintenance on this device.
• Read this User's Guide carefully, and follow the correct procedure when
setting up the monitor.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or modify your monitor. Never insert any
metallic object into the circuitry to avoid any risk of electrical shock, fire, short-
circuiting or dangerous emissions. Your monitor contains no user-serviceable
parts. If it appears to be malfunctioning, have it inspected by a qualified LaCie
Technical Support representative.
• Never expose your monitor to rain, or use it near water, or in damp or wet
conditions. Never place objects containing liquids on the monitor, as they may
spill onto its circuitry. Doing so increases the risk of electrical shock, short-
circuiting, fire or personal injury.
• Make sure that the computer and the monitor are electrically grounded. If
the devices are not grounded, there is an increased risk of electrical shock.
• Do not expose the monitor to temperatures outside the range of 5° C to 45°
C (41° F to 104° F). Doing so may damage the monitor or disfigure its casing.
Avoid placing your monitor near a source of heat or exposing it to sunlight
(even through a window). Inversely, placing your monitor in an environment
that is too cold or humid may damage the unit.
