Notes on LCD

The color LCD is manufactured using extremely high

precision technology, but even so may include certain

pixels that do not operate properly (that do not light,

that remain lit constantly, etc.). We do our best to

keep the number of these defective pixels to a

minimum, but please understand that they cannot be

completely eliminated even with the most advanced

manufacturing technologies available today.

The fluorescent tube which illuminates the panel from

the inside will deteriorate with use. When the LCD

becomes dim, flickers, or does not illuminate, contact

your dealer for replacement.

The brightness of the LCD monitor differs slightly

depending on the viewing angles. Adjust the angle to

obtain the best viewing. (The recommended angle is

90 degrees to the monitor.)

Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.

Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner and

benzine, as they may damage the surface of the unit.

Notes on locating

■ When you place this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the

playback picture may become poor and the sound

may be distorted. In this case, place the unit away

from the TV, radio, or VCR.

■ To avoid damage to this product, never place or store

the unit in direct sunlight; hot, humid areas; or areas

subject to excessive dust or vibration.

■ Always place the

TV on the floor or

a sturdy, level,

stable surface

that can support
