Discontinue Usage if Abnormal Operation Occurs!
Abnormal operations such as smoke, burning smell, excessive sound, etc. could cause fire or electrical shock. If you observe any abnormal operation, you should turn Off the monitor and disconnect the power plug from the power outlet. You should check for smoke or fire and contact your dealer.
Do not expose the monitor to physical impact!
Do not allow foreign objects (water, metal, etc.) inside!
Never remove the cover!
The colour monitor contains high voltage components. Ask your dealer to repair or clean inside.
The power outlet should be close to the monitor and easily accessible!
Install the unit in an suitable environment!
Do not expose the monitor to rain, moisture, dust, corrosive gases, vibrations, etc. so as to prevent electrical shock or fire hazard.
Avoid placing the monitor in direct sunlight or near heating appliances.
Do not place the monitor on an unstable base.
Keep in a well ventilated area!
Do not cover this monitor or place anything against any sides (not only the top, right and left side but also the rear and bottom sides) of the monitor. Ventilation holes are provided at all sides of covers to prevent excessive temperature increase.
Be cautious of magnetic fields!
DO NOT place a magnet, loudspeaker system, floppy disk drive, printer, or anything which will generate magnetism near the unit. A magnetic field may cause blurred colours or distortion of the displayed pattern.
Be mindful of the ambient illumination!
Avoid direct rays of the sun or room lighting onto the CRT screen in order to prevent eye fatigue.
The enclosed power cord must be used!
Failure to do so may cause fire or electrical shock hazard.
Use only the correct voltage power outlet with safety ground connection!
This monitor will automatically adjust to the input voltage 100 - 120 / 200 - 240V.
Be cautious of the power cord connection!
Before inserting the plug of the power cord into a power outlet of the correct voltage, check that the connection portion of the power cord is clean (with no dust). Then, insert the plug of power cord into a power outlet firmly to avoid electrical shock or fire hazard.
1 Remove the power cord for complete separation!
For complete separation from the power source, remove the power cord from the monitor or from the wall power outlet.
CAUTION for 200 - 240V operation only
This equipment relies on the protective devices in the building installation for short-circuit and over-current protection. Refer to the following table for the suitable number and location of the protective devices which should be provided in the building installation.
Informative examples of
protective devices in single - phase equipment or sub - assemblies
| Protection against | Minimum number of fuses or circuit - breaker poles | Location | |
| Case A: Equipment to be connected to POWER SYSTEMS with earthed neutral reliably identified, except for Case C below. | Earth faults | 1 | Phase conductor |
| Overcurrent | 1 | Either of the two conductors | |
| Case B: Equipment to be connected to any supply, including IT POWER SYSTEMS and supplies with reversible plugs, except for Case C below. | Earth faults | 2 | Both conductors |
| Overcurrent | 1 | Either of the two conductors | |
| Case C: Equipment to be connected to 3-wire power systems with earthed neutral reliably identified. | Earth faults | 2 | Each phase conductor |
| Overcurrent | 2 | Each phase conductor |
Verify that the protective devices in the building installation meets the conditions in the table prior to installing the equipment.
Be careful of static electricity on CRT surface!
To prevent electrical shock by the static electricity on the CRT surface, disconnect the power cord at least 30 seconds after turning OFF the power.
Avoid frequent power ON-OFF switching!
Do not repeat OFF and ON power switching in a short period. This may cause blurred colours or distortion of the displayed pattern.
Be careful of generated magnetism!
After the power has been turned ON or when the degauss function has been manually engaged, the CRT is demagnetised for approximately 7 seconds. This generates a strong magnetic field around the front cover which may affect the data stored on magnetic tape or disks near the front cover. Place such magnetic recording equipment and tapes/disks away from this unit.
About cleaning
Before cleaning, turn OFF the power switch and disconnect the plug from the power outlet. For the screen, use water with a lightly moistened soft cloth such as a gauze type material. For the cover, use water or a liquid synthetic detergent, with a lightly moistened soft cloth. Do not clean the inside of monitor by yourself as it is very dangerous. Refer to your dealer. Do not use aerosol sprays, solvents or abrasive cleaners.

This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides for an international environmental and quality labelling of personal computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation), Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy Administration) and SEMKO AB.
The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, reduction of electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical safety.
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are used both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most of these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the work (internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics equipment in offices is often left running continuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy.
What does the environmental labelling involve?
The environmental demands has been developed by Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation). These demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental policy which must be adhered to in each country where the company implements its operational policy.
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The length of time to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.

Environmental requirements
Flame retardants
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. Their purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride, and those flame retardants are chemically related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants containing bromine or chloride and the PCBs are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals, due to the bio-accumulative processes. Flame retardants have been found in human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may occur.
The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than 25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit boards since no substitutes are available.
Cadmium
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries, the colour-generating layers of display screens and the electrical or electronics components must not contain any cadmium.
Mercury
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any mercury. It also demands that mercury is not present in any of the electrical or electronics components associated with the labelled unit. There is however one exception. Mercury is, for the time being, permitted in the back light system of flat panel monitors as there today is no commercially available alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when a mercury free alternative is available.
CFCs (freons)
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufacture and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) as a consequence.
Lead
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning. The relevant TCO'99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.

Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms
**Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.
