Never use your monitor if the power cable has been damaged. Ensure that nothing rests on your computer's
cables and that the cables are not located where they can be stepped on or tripped over.
z
Be sure to grasp the plug, not the cable, when disconnecting the monitor from an electric socket.
z
Openings in the monitor cabinet are provided for ventilation. To prevent overheating, these openings should not
be blocked or covered. Avoid using the monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, or other soft surface, as doing so may block
the ventilation openings in the bottom of the cabinet. If you place the monitor in a bookcase or an enclosed
space, be sure to provide adequate ventilation and air flow.
z
Place your monitor in a location with low humidity and minimum dust. Avoid places similar to a damp basement
or dusty hallway.
z
Do not expose the monitor to rain or use it near water (in kitchens, next to swimming pools, etc.). If the monitor
accidentally gets wet, unplug it and contact an authorized dealer immediately. You can clean the monitor with a
damp cloth when necessary, being sure to unplug the monitor first.
z
Place the monitor on a solid surface and treat it carefully. The screen is made of glass and can be damaged if
dropped or hit sharply.

Locate your monitor near an easily accessible electric outlet.
z
If your monitor does not operate normally - in particular, if there are any unusual sounds or smells coming from
it - unplug it immediately and contact an authorized dealer or service center.
z
Do not attempt to remove the back cover, as you will be exposed to an electrical shock hazard. The back cover
should only be removed by qualified service personnel.
z
High temperatures can cause problems. Don't use your monitor in direct sunlight, and keep it away from
heaters, stoves, fireplaces, and other sources of heat.
