Thank you for your purchase of the Sharp LCD
Multimedia Monitor. To ensure safety and many
years of trouble-free operation of your product,
please read the safety precautions carefully before
using this monitor.
- The TFT colour LCD panel used in this monitor
is made with the application of high precision
technology. However, there may be minute
points on the screen where pixels never light or
are permanently lit. Also, if the screen is viewed
from an acute angle there may be uneven
colours or brightness. Please note that these are
not malfunctions but common phenomena of
LCDs and will not affect the performance of the
monitor.
- Do not leave the screen displaying idly for long
periods of time, as this could cause an
afterimage to remain.
- If the brightness is adjusted to the minimum
setting it may be difficult to see the screen.
- The quality of the computer signal may influence
the quality of the display. We recommend using a
computer able to emit high quality video signals.
- Never rub or tap the monitor with hard objects.
- Please understand that Sharp Corporation bears
no responsibility for errors made during use by
the customer or a third party, nor for any other
malfunctions or damage to this product arising
during use, except where indemnity liability is
recognized under law.

upgraded without advance notice.
Location
- Do not use the monitor where ventilation is poor,
where there is a lot of dust, where humidity is
high, or where the monitor may come into
contact with oil or steam, as this could lead to
fire.
- Ensure that the monitor does not come into
contact with water or other fluids. Ensure that no
objects such as paper clips or pins enter the
monitor as this could lead to fire or electric
shock.
- Do not place the monitor on top of unstable
objects or in unsafe places. Do not allow the
monitor to come into contact with strong shocks
or vibrations. Causing the monitor to fall or
topple over may damage it.
- Do not use in places where the monitor will be
subject to direct sunlight, near heating
equipment or anywhere else where there is
likelihood of high temperature, as this may lead
to generation of excessive heat and outbreak of
fire.
