WARNING: (FOR FCC CERTIFIED MODELS)

NOTE:

This equipment has been tested and found

to comply with the limits for a Class B digital

device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference in a

residential installation. This equipment generates,

uses and can radiate radio frequency energy,

and if not installed and used in accordance with

the instructions, may cause harmful interference

to radio communications. However, there is

no guarantee that interference will not occur

in a particular installation. If this equipment

does cause harmful interference to radio or

television reception, which can be determined

by turning the equipment off and on, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference

by one or more of the following measures:

1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

2. Increase the separation between the

equipment and receiver.

3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on

a circuit different from that to which the

receiver is connected.

4. Consult the dealer or an experienced

radio/TV technician for help.

NOTICE:

1. The changes or modiÀcations not expressly

approved by the party responsible for

compliance could void the user’s authority

to operate the equipment.

2. Shielded interface cables and AC power

cord, if any, must be used in order to

comply with the emission limits.

3. The manufacturer is not responsible

for any radio or TV interference caused

by unauthori]ed modiÀcation to this

equipment. It is the responsibilities of the

user to correct such interference.

WARNING:

To prevent Àre or shock ha]ard, do not expose

the monitor to rain or moisture. Dangerously

high voltages are present inside the monitor.

Do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to

qualiÀed personnel only.

1.1 Precautions

 Do not use the SMART All-in-One near

water, e.g. near a bathtub, washbowl,

kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming pool or

in a wet basement.

 Do not place the SMART All-in-One

on an unstable cart, stand, or table. If

the SMART All-in-One falls, it can injure

a person and cause serious damage to

the appliance. Use only a cart or stand

recommended by the manufacturer or sold

with the SMART All-in-One.

 Slots and openings in the back and

bottom of the cabinet are provided for

ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of

the SMART All-in-One and to protect it

from overheating, be sure these openings

are not blocked or covered. Do not

place the SMART All-in-One on a bed,

sofa, rug, or similar surface. Do not place

the SMART All-in-One near or over a

radiator or heat register. Do not place

the SMART All-in-One in a bookcase

or cabinet unless proper ventilation is

provided.

 The SMART All-in-One should be

operated only from the type of power

source indicated on the label. If you are not

sure of the type of power supplied to your

home, consult your dealer or local power

company.

. For your safet

y

 The SMART All-in-One is equipped with

a three-pronged grounded plug, a plug

with a third (grounding) pin. This plug will

fit only into a grounded power outlet as

a safety feature. If your outlet does not

accommodate the three-wire plug, have an

electrician install the correct outlet, or use

an adapter to ground the appliance safely.

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the

grounded plug.

 Unplug the unit during a lightening

storm or when it will not be used for

long period of time. This will protect the

SMART All-in-One from damage due to

power surges.

 Do not overload power strips and

extension cords. Overloading can result in

fire or electric shock.

 Never push any object into the slot

on the SMART All-in-One cabinet. It

could short circuit parts causing a fire or

electric shock. Never spill liquids on the

SMART All-in-One.

 Do not attempt to service the

SMART All-in-One by yourself; opening

or removing covers can expose you to

dangerous voltages and other hazards.

Please refer all servicing to qualified service

personnel.

 To ensure satisfactory operation, use

the SMART All-in-One only with UL

listed computers which have appropriate

configured receptacles marked between

100 - 240V AC, Min. 5A.

 The wall socket shall be installed near the

equipment and shall be easily accessible.

 For use only with the attached power

adapter (Output 19V DC) which have UL,

CSA listed licensed (only for monitor with

power adapter).

1.2 Cleaning

 Clean the cabinet regularly with cloth. You

can use soft-detergent to wipe out the

stain, instead of strong-detergent which will

cauterize the product cabinet.

 When cleaning, make sure no detergent is

leaked into the product. The cleaning cloth

should not be too rough as it will scratch

the screen surface.

 Please disconnect the power cord before

cleaning the product.

1.3 Special notes on

SMART All-in-One

The following symptoms are normal with

SMART All-in-One and do not indicate a

problem.

Note

 Due to the nature of the fluorescent light,

the screen may flicker during initial use. Turn

off the Power Switch and then turn it on

again to make sure the flicker disappears.

 You may find slightly uneven brightness

on the screen depending on the desktop

pattern you use.

 The LCD screen has effective pixels of

99.99% or more. It may include blemishes

of 0.01% or less such as a missing pixel or a

pixel lit all of the time.

 Due to the nature of the LCD screen, an

afterimage of the previous screen may

remain after switching the image when the

same image has been displayed for a long

time. The SMART All-in-One will slowly

recover from this.

 When the screen becomes black or

flashing, or cannot illuminate any more,

contact your dealer or service center to

replace parts. Don’t repair the screen by

yourself!
