Unpacking

Before unpacking your LCD monitor, prepare a stable, level, and

clean surface near a wall outlet for your LCD monitor.

1. Set the LCD monitor box in an upright position and open

from the top of the box before removing the right/left

cushions.

2. Check to see that you have the following accessories shown

below:

Note: Remember to save your original box and packaging

material in case you need to transport or ship the monitor.

Precautions

• Read all of these warnings and save the manual for later use.

• Follow all warnings and instructions on the product.

• Do not cover or block the vent holes in the case.

• Do not insert sharp objects or spill liquid into the LCD

monitor through the cabinet slots; this may cause accidental

fire, electric shock or failure.

• Disconnect the power plug from the AC outlet if you are not

going to use the monitor for an extended period of time.

• Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or

removing the cover may expose you to dangerous voltage

points or other risks.

• Do not touch the screen directly with your fingers as you may

damage the screen, and oil from your skin is difficult to

remove.

7

• Do not apply pressure to the screen, as the screen is very

delicate.

• Keep the monitor away from extremely hot, cold or humid

places.

• Do not place the monitor directly under sunlight, in dusty

surroundings, or near equipment which may generate strong

magnetic fields.

Cleaning

Warning:

If you drop any material or liquid such as water onto the

monitor when cleaning, unplug the power cable immediately

and contact your dealer or the nearest service center. Always

make sure your hands are dry when unplugging the power

cable.

Caution:

• For safety reasons, turn off the power switch and unplug the

monitor before cleaning.

• Do not scratch or rub the screen with a hard object.

• Never use any of the following solvents on the LCD monitor:

Thinner; spray-type cleaners; benzene; wax; abrasive

cleaners; and acid or alkaline solvents. Such harsh chemicals

may cause damage to the cabinet and the LCD screen.

• Rubbing the cabinet with products made of rubber or plastic

for prolonged periods may cause degeneration or loss of

paint on the cabinet.

Cabinet

• Remove dirt with a lightly moistened cloth and a mild solvent

detergent. Then wipe the cabinet with a soft dry cloth.

LCD

• Periodic cleaning with a soft dry cloth is recommended.

• Do not use tissue to clean the screen, as this may damage the

LCD screen.

Installation

Installing the Monitor

• DO NOT install the monitor where sudden temperature

changes may occur, or in humid, dusty, or smoky areas as

fire, electric shock or damage may ensue.

• DO NOT place your LCD monitor near a window as it may be

severely damaged if exposed to rain, water, moisture, or

sunlight.

• MAINTAIN good ventilation; covering of ventilation slots or

holes may cause fire.

• PLACE the monitor at least 4 inches (or 10 cm) away from the

walls

• SAFE storage temperature of the LCD monitor is in a range of

–4ºF to +149ºF (-20ºC to +65ºC).

Connecting the Monitor

Warning: Do not operate the LCD monitor with unspecified

power supply. Usage of incorrect voltage will cause

malfunction and may cause fire or electric shock.

1. Turn off your computer and LCD monitor.

2. Use the VGA cable to connect the VGA connector of the LCD

monitor to the VGA port of the computer. Make sure the

cables are securely connected.

3. Plug the DC connector of the adapter to your monitor’s DC

jack.

4. Plug the female end of the power cord into the AC adapter.

5. Connect the male end of the power cord into a wall socket.

6. Turn on your computer, and then turn on your LCD monitor.

Note: For added protection, the use of a Surge Protection

device is recommended. The Surge Protection device should be

installed between the AC Adapter and the electrical wall outlet to

prevent the effects of sudden current variations from reaching

and damaging the LCD monitor.
