PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

If the unit begins to emit smoke, smells like something is burning, or makes strange noises, disconnect all power connections immediately and contact your dealer for advice. Attempting to use a malfunctioning unit may result in fire, electric shock, or equipment damage.	Use the enclosed power cord and connect to the standard power outlet of your country. Be sure to remain within the rated voltage of the power cord. Not doing so may result in fire or electric shock. "Power Supply: 100-120/200-240 Vac 50/60Hz"
Keep small objects or liquids away from the unit. Small objects accidentally falling through the ventilation slots into the cabinet or spillage into the cabinet may result in fire, electric shock, or equipment damage. If an object or liquid falls/spills into the cabinet, unplug the unit immediately. Have the unit checked by a qualified service engineer before using it again.	Set the unit in an appropriate location. Not doing so may result in fire, electric shock, or equipment damage. Do not place outdoors. Do not place in the transportation system (ship, aircraft, trains, automobiles, etc.). Do not place in a dusty or humid environment. Do not place in a location where the steam comes directly on the screen. Do not place near heat generating devices or a humidifier.
The equipment must be connected to a grounded main outlet. Not doing so may result in fire or electric shock.	Lamps contain mercury, dispose according to local, state or federal laws.

CAUTION

Do not block the ventilation slots on the cabinet.

• Do not place any objects on the ventilation slots.
• Do not install the unit in a closed space.
• Do not use the unit laid down or upside down.

Blocking the ventilation slots prevents proper airflow and may result in fire, electric shock, or equipment damage.

Do not carry the monitor with the hood attached.

While carrying the monitor, the hood may fall or slip off, which may result in injury or equipment damage.

Close the open/close cover until it contacts the stopper.

If the cover is not closed properly, the ventilation slots on the monitor will be covered and proper airflow will be prevented. This may cause overheating inside the monitor and may result in fire, electric shock, or equipment damage.

Use an easily accessible power outlet.

This will ensure that you can disconnect the power quickly in case of a problem.

Do not place any objects on the hood.

If the hood falls or slips off or the monitor falls over, it may result in injury or equipment damage.

Do not rotate the monitor into the portrait position.

Doing so may cause the hood to slip off, which may result in injury or equipment damage.
