-  The TFT color LCD panel used in this monitor is made with 

the application of high precision technology. However, there 

may be minute points on the screen where pixels never light 

or are permanently lit. Also, if the screen is viewed from 

an acute angle there may be uneven colors or brightness. 

Please note that these are not malfunctions but common 

phenomena of LCDs and will not affect the performance of 

the monitor.

-  Do not display the same image for an extended time.

 

Displaying the same image for an extended time may cause 

a residual image. In particular, an image with strong contrast 

may cause a residual image after several hours.

- Never rub or tap the monitor with hard objects.
-  Please understand that SHARP CORPORATION bears no 

responsibility for errors made during use by the customer or 

a third party, nor for any other malfunctions or damage to this 

product arising during use, except where indemnity liability is 

recognized under law.

-  This monitor and its accessories may be upgraded without 

advance notice.

-  Do not use the monitor where there is a lot of dust, where 

humidity is high, or where the monitor may come into contact 

with oil or steam, as this could lead to fire.

-  Ensure that the monitor does not come into contact with 

water or other fluids. Ensure that no objects such as paper 

clips or pins enter the monitor as this could lead to fire or 

electric shock.

-  Do not place the monitor on top of unstable objects or in 

unsafe places. Do not allow the monitor to receive strong 

shocks or to strongly vibrate. Causing the monitor to fall or 

topple over may damage it.

-  

Do not use the monitor near heating equipment or in places 

where there is likelihood of high temperature. Do not use in an 

environment where there are corrosive gases (sulfur dioxide, 

hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen dioxide, chlorine, ammonia, ozone, 

etc.). As this may lead to generation of excessive heat and 

outbreak of fire.

-  Do not use the monitor in places where it may be exposed to 

direct sunlight.

-  Images cannot be rotated on this monitor.

 

When using in portrait orientation, you will need to prepare 

appropriately orientated content in advance.

-  The AC outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall 

be easily accessible.

-  Do not touch the screen when starting the LCD monitor. If 

the screen is touched, the monitor may not function correctly. 

In this situation, turn the LCD monitor off, wait at least 5 

seconds, and then turn on the monitor again.

-  Do not operate the screen with a hard or pointed object such 

as a fingernail, pen other than the supplied touch pen, or a 

pencil.

-  Depending on the application used, the supplied touch pen 

may not function.

-  If another USB device is connected to the computer to which 

the touch panel is connected, do not operate the USB device 

during touch panel input. Input may not take place correctly.

-  Do not use liquid such as alcohol in cleaning the screen.
-  Keep all cables off the touch panel. Not doing so may lead to 

LCD monitor malfunctions.

-  If used in a room (or location) with drastic temperature 

differences, the display quality of the screen and the quality 

of touch panel performance may decrease.

The Power Cord and AC adapter

-  

Use only the power cord and AC adapter supplied with the monitor.

-  When handling the AC adapter, observe the following: 

Incorrect handling may result in fire, electric shock, or injury.

 

• Do not drop the AC adapter or subject it to impact.

 

• Never disassemble the AC adapter. It contains high voltage 

parts that are dangerous to touch.

 

• The AC adapter is for indoor use only. Do not use it outside.

 

• Do not use the supplied AC adapter with other devices.

-  

Do not damage the power cord and AC adapter nor place heavy 

objects on it, stretch it or over bend it. Also, do not add extension 

cords. Damage to the cord may result in fire or electric shock.

-  

Do not use the power cord with a power tap.

 

Adding an extension cord may lead to fire as a result of overheating.

-  Do not remove or insert the power plug with wet hands. 

Doing so could result in electric shock.

- Unplug the power cord if it is not used for a long time.

-  

Do not attempt to repair the power cord if it is broken or 

malfunctioning. Refer the servicing to the service representative.

-  Do not stay in contact with the parts of the product (touch 

panel, etc.) and the AC adapter that become hot for long 

periods of time.

 

Doing so may result in low-temperature burns.

-  

Do not fasten the AC adapter to the monitor or other equipment.

 

Doing so may result in fire and electrical shock.
