Safety Precautions and Maintenance
FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, PLEASE NOTE
THE FOLLOWING WHEN SETTING UP AND
USING THE MULTISYNC LCD COLOUR MONITOR:
•DO NOT OPEN THE MONITOR. There are no user serviceable parts inside and opening or removing covers may expose
you to dangerous shock hazards or other risks. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
•Do not spill any liquids into the cabinet or use your monitor near water.
•Do not insert objects of any kind into the cabinet slots, as they may touch dangerous voltage points, which can be harmful
or fatal or may cause electric shock, fire or equipment failure.
•Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord. Damage to the cord may cause shock or fire.
•Do not place this product on a sloping or unstable cart, stand or table, as the monitor may fall, causing serious damage to
the monitor.
•When operating the LCD monitor with its AC 125-240V power supply, use a power supply aord that matches the power
supply voltage of the AC power outlet being used. The power supply cord you use must have been approved by and
comply with the safety standards of your country. (Type H05VV-F should be used in Europe).
•In U.K, use a BS-approved power cord with molded plug having a black (5A) fuse installed for use with this monitor.
If a power cord is not supplied with this monitor, please contact your supplier.
•Do not place any objects onto the monitor and do not use the monitor outdoors.
•The inside of the fluorescent tube located within the LCD monitor contains mercury. Please follow the bylaws or rules of
your municipality to dispose of the tube properly.
•Do not bend power cord.
•Do not use monitor in high temperature, humid, dusty, or oily areas.
•Do not cover vent on monitor.
Immediately unplug your monitor from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following
conditions:
•When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
•If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the monitor.
•If the monitor has been exposed to rain or water.
•If the monitor has been dropped or the cabinet damaged.
•If the monitor does not operate normally by following operating instructions.
•If monitor is broken, do not come in contact with the liquid crystal and handle with care.
•Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor so that heat can properly dissipate. Do not block ventilated
openings or place the monitor near a radiator or other heat sources. Do not put anything on top of
monitor.
•The power cable connector is the primary means of detaching the system from the power supply. The
monitor should be installed close to a power outlet, which is easily accessible.
•Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for transporting.
•Image Persistence: Please be aware that LCD Technology may experience a phenomenon known as Image Persistence.
Image Persistence occurs when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image remains visible on the screen. Unlike CRT
monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not permanent, but constant images being displayed for a long period of
time should be avoided.
To alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as the previous image was displayed. For example, if an
image was on the monitor for one hour and a residual image remains, the monitor should be turned off for one hour to
erase the image.
As with all personal display devices, NEC DISPLAY SOLUTIONS recommends displaying moving images and using a
moving screen saver at regular intervals whenever the screen is idle or turning off the monitor when not in use.
CAUTION
