UPPLY
•
Do not open the housing of the mains (power supply). An open housing presents a
lethal
hazard
from electrical shock. There are no parts inside to be cleaned or serviced.
•
Operate your LCD monitor mains (power supply) only on grounded sockets with
AC 100-240V~/ 50-60
Hz.
If you are not sure about the power supply at your location, check with your power company.
•
Use only the mains (power supply) and power connection cable
provided.
•
For additional safety we recommend use of
an excessive voltage protection device
to protect your LCD
monitor from damage resulting from
voltage surges
or
lightning
.
•
To interrupt the LCD monitor from mains (power supply) disconnect the plug from the socket.
•
The power
socket
must be in the vicinity of your LCD monitor and within reach of the power cables.
DO NOT stretch the power cables tightly to reach a power socket
.
•
If you use an
extension cable
, ensure that it fulfills the
VDE requirements
. Please ask your
electrician.
•
You should lay the LCD Monitor cables in a manner that no one can trip or step on it.
•
To avoid damage of cable
do not place any objects
or furniture on the cable
.
•
You can adjust your LCD monitor a
maximum of about
3°
downward
and a
maximal 20°
upward
(see page 10). If you attempt to go beyond these points with force, the
danger of damage
exists.

For ergonomic reasons we suggest not to use the base-color blue on dark subfonds. This would cause bad read-
ability and would increase eye strain.
•
While working with screens you should
take breaks periodically
to avoid tension and fatigue.
•
In order to save your eyes and to assure a convenient working area you should
avoid glare, reflections
and
strong contrasts
on the screen.
