Safety instructions

CAUTION: Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures other than those

specified in this documentation may result in exposure to shock, electrical

hazards, and/or mechanical hazards.

• Place the monitor on a solid surface and handle it carefully. The screen is fragile

and can be damaged if dropped or hit sharply.

• Always be sure that your monitor is electrically rated to operate with the AC

power available in your location.

• Keep the monitor in room temperature. Excessive cold or hot conditions can have

an adverse effect on the liquid crystal of the display.

• Do not subject the monitor to severe vibration or high impact conditions. For

example, do not place the monitor inside a car trunk.

• Unplug the monitor when it is going to be left unused for an extended period of

time.

• To avoid electric shock, do not attempt to remove any cover or touch the inside

of the monitor.

For information on safety instructions, see the Safety, Environmental, and Regulatory
