Safety Precautions and Maintenance
FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, PLEASE NOTE
THE FOLLOWING WHEN SETTING UP AND
USING THE LCD COLOUR MONITOR:
•
DO NOT OPEN THE MONITOR.
There are no user serviceable parts inside and opening or removing covers may expose
you to dangerous shock hazards or other risks. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
•
Do not spill any liquids into the cabinet or use your monitor near water.
•
Do not insert objects of any kind into the cabinet slots, as they may touch dangerous voltage points, which can be harmful
or fatal or may cause electric shock, fire or equipment failure.
•
Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord. Damage to the cord may cause shock or fire.
•
Do not place this product on a sloping or unstable cart, stand or table, as the monitor may fall, causing serious damage to
the monitor.
•
Do not place any objects onto the monitor and do not use the monitor outdoors.
•
The inside of the flourescent tube located within the LCD monitor contains mercury. Please follow the bylaws or rules of
your municipality to dispose of the tube properly.
Immediately unplug your monitor from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following
conditions:
•
When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
•
If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the monitor.
•
If the monitor has been exposed to rain or water.
•
If the monitor has been dropped or the cabinet damaged.
•
If the monitor does not operate normally by following operating instructions.
•
Do not bend power cord.
•
Do not use monitor in high temperatured, humid, dusty, or oily areas.
•
Do not cover vent on monitor.
•
If monitor is broken, do not come in contact with the liquid crystal.
•
If glass is broken. Handle with care.
•
Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor so that heat can properly dissipate. Do not block
ventilated openings or place the monitor near a radiator or other heat sources. Do not put anything on
top of monitor.
•
The power cable connector is the primary means of detaching the system from the power supply. The
monitor should be installed close to a power outlet which is easily accessible.
•
Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for transporting.
•
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 persistence 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.
NOTE:
As with all personal display devices, NEC-Mitsubishi Electronics Display-Europe recommends using a moving
screen saver at regular intervals whenever the screen is idle or turning off the monitor when not in use.
CORRECT PLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE MONITOR CAN
REDUCE EYE, SHOULDER AND NECK FATIGUE. CHECK THE
FOLLOWING WHEN YOU POSITION THE MONITOR:
•
For optimum performance, allow 20 minutes for warm-up.
•
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.
•
Position your monitor no closer than 40 cm and no further away than 70 cm from your
eyes. The optimal distance is 50 cm.
•
Rest your eyes periodically by focusing on an object at least 6 m away. Blink often.
•
Position the monitor at a 90° 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.
•
If reflected light makes it hard for you to see your screen, use an antiglare filter.
•
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.
•
Use a document holder placed close to the screen.
