Do not expose this device to excessively high temperatures. Do not place it in, on, or near heat sources, such as a fireplace, stove, radiator, etc. Do not leave it in direct sunlight.
This device ventilates excessive heat through the slots and openings in the case. Do not block or cover these openings. Ensure that the device is in an open area where it can get sufficient airflow to keep from overheating.
Do not place or install this device in an area where it can be exposed to excessive amounts of dust, humidity, oil, smoke, or combustible vapors.
Prior to operation, check the unit and power cord for physical damage. Do not use if physical damage has occurred.
Before plugging the unit into a power outlet, ensure that the outlet provides the same type and level of power required by the device.
Take care to prevent damage to the power cord. Do not allow it to become crimped, pinched, walked on, or become tangled with other cords. Ensure that the power cord does not present a tripping hazard.
Never unplug the unit by pulling on the power cord. Always grasp the connector head or adapter body.
Ensure that power is turned off and disconnected before making any electrical connections.

This monitor has no user serviceable parts. Do not open the case or otherwise attempt to modify this monitor.
Do not leave a single image on the display for a long period of time. Doing so could cause “burn-in” of the image.
