Precautions
Warning on power connections
• Use the supplied power cord. If you use a different power cord,
be sure that it is compatible with your local power supply.
For the customers in the U.S.A.
If you do not use the appropriate cord, this monitor will not
conform to mandatory FCC standards.
Example of plug types
for 100 to 120 V AC
• Before disconnecting the power cord, wait at least 30 seconds
after turning off the power to allow the static electricity on the
screen's surface to discharge.
• After the power is turned on, the screen is demagnetized
(degaussed) for about a few seconds. This generates a strong
magnetic field around the screen which may affect data stored
on magnetic tapes and disks placed near the monitor. Be sure to
keep magnetic recording equipment, tapes, and disks away
from the monitor.
The equipment should be installed near an easily accessible
outlet.
Installation
Do not install the monitor in the following places:
• on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains,
draperies, etc.) that may block the ventilation holes
• near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place
subject to direct sunlight
• in a place subject to severe temperature changes
• in a place subject to mechanical vibration or shock
• on an unstable surface
• near equipment which generates magnetism, such as a
transformer or high voltage power lines
• near or on an electrically charged metal surface
Protection
• Do not put foreign objects into the monitor.
• Disconnect the monitor if environment exceeds 60°C/140°F.
• Ensure AC power cord is not trapped under furniture, TV, etc.
• Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or convenience
receptacles beyond their capacity.
• Never spill liquid of any kind on the monitor.
Notes on cleaning the screen's surface
• The screen's surface is covered with a thin anti-reflective
coating to enhance the ergonomic characteristics of the
monitor. To ensure that the coating is not damaged, use a soft
cloth to clean the screen's surface. If necessary, use a soft cloth
lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution, such as hand
soap, to wipe the screen.
• Do not use any type of abrasive pad, alkaline cleanser, scouring
powder, or solvents such as alcohol or benzene as they might
damage the anti-reflective coating.
• If you use a glass cleaning liquid, do not use any type of cleaner
containing an anti-static solution or similar additive as this may
scratch the screen's coating.

abrasive items such as a ballpoint pen or screwdriver. This type
of contact may result in a scratched picture tube.
Notes on cleaning the cabinet
• Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth lightly
moistened with a mild detergent solution.
• Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent, such as alcohol or benzene.
