10. Grounding or Polarization
For monitors equipped with a 3-wire grounding type plug with a third (grounding) pin.
This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you
are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
11. Power
Power supply cords should be routed well so that they are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the monitor.
12. Lightning
For added protection for this monitor during a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for a long period of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and
disconnect the cable system. This will prevent damage to the monitor due to lightning
and power-line surges.
13. Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.
14. Objects and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into this monitor through openings as they may touch
