• 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.
For the customers in the UK
If you use the monitor in the UK, be sure to use the appropriate 
UK power cord.

Do not install or leave the monitor:
• In places subject to extreme temperatures, for example near a 

radiator, heating vent, or in direct sunlight. Subjecting the 
monitor to extreme temperatures, such as in an automobile 
parked in direct sunlight or near a heating vent, could cause 
deformations of the casing or malfunctions.

• In places subject to mechanical vibration or shock.
• Near any equipment that generates a strong magnetic field, 

such as a TV or various other household appliances.

• In places subject to inordinate amounts of dust, dirt, or sand, for 

example near an open window or an outdoor exit. If setting up 
temporarily in an outdoor environment, be sure to take 
adequate precautions against airborne dust and dirt. Otherwise 
irreparable malfunctions could occur.

Please note that the LCD screen is made with high-precision 
technology. However, black points or bright points of light (red, 
blue, or green) may appear constantly on the LCD screen, and 
irregular colored stripes or brightness may appear on the LCD 
screen. This is not malfunction. 
(Effective dots: more than 99.99%)

Be sure to keep magnetic recording equipment, tapes, and floppy 
discs away from the speaker’s opening as the speakers generate a 
magnetic field. This magnetic field may affect data stored on 
magnetic tapes and discs.

• Disconnect all cables from the monitor, and grasp both side of 

the LCD display firmly taking care not to scratch the screen 
when transporting. If you drop the monitor, you may be injured 
or the monitor may be damaged.

• When you transport this monitor for repair or shipment, use the 

original carton and packing materials.
