PRECAUTIONS
 • Do not use the monitor near water, e.g. near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry 
tub, swimming pool or in a wet basement. 
 • Do not place the monitor on an unstable cart, stand, or table. If the monitor 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 monitor. If you mount the monitor 
on a wall or shelf, use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturer and follow the kit 
instructions. 
 • Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for ventilation. 
To ensure reliable operation of the monitor and to protect it from overheating, be sure 
these openings are not blocked or covered. Do not place the monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, 
or similar surface. Do not place the monitor near or over a radiator or heat register. Do not 
place the monitor in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided. 
 • The monitor 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. 
 • The monitor 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 monitor 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 monitor cabinet. It could short circuit parts 
causing a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquids on the monitor. 
 • Do not attempt to service the monitor 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 monitor 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.
