PRECAUTIONS
LCD Panel
In  order  to  suppress  the  luminosity  change  by  long-term  use  and  to  maintain  the  stable  luminosity,  use  of  a 
monitor in lower brightness is recommended.
The  LCD  panel  is  manufactured  using  high-precision  technology.  However,  note  that  the  appearance  of  any 
missing pixels or lit pixels does not indicate damage to the LCD monitor.
Percentage of effective pixels : 99.9994% or higher.
The  backlight  of  the  LCD  panel  has  a  fixed  life  span.  When  the  screen  becomes  dark  or  begins  to  flicker, 
please contact your dealer.
Do  not  press  on  the  panel  or  edge  of  the  frame  strongly,  as  this  may  result  in  damage  to  the  screen. There 
will be prints left on the screen if the pressed image is dark or black. If pressure is repeatedly applied to the 
screen, it may deteriorate or damage your LCD panel. Leave the screen white or black to decrease the prints.
When  the  screen  image  is  changed  after  displaying  the  same  image  for  extended  periods  of  time,  an 
afterimage  may  appear.  Use  the  screen  saver  or  timer  to  avoid  displaying  the  same  image  for  extended 
periods of time.When  the  monitor  is  cold  and  brought  into  a  room  or  the  room  temperature  goes  up  quickly,  dew 
condensation may occur inside and outside the monitor. In that case, do not turn the monitor on and wait until 
dew condensation disappears, otherwise it may cause some damages to it.
Do  not  scratch  or  press  on  the  panel  with  any  sharp  objects,  such  as  a  pencil  or  pen  as  this  may  result  in 
damage to the panel. Do not attempt to brush with tissues as this may scratch the LCD panel.

Selecting input signal
Switch the input signal with . Input signal switches each time  is pressed. When the signal is 
switched, the active signal type (Signal 1 or 2/ Analog or Digital) appears at the top right corner of the 
screen for two seconds.
This function is used to select which PC will have priority to control the monitor when utilizing two PCs. 
The monitor constantly checks the input signals and switches automatically in accordance with the 
 setting (see table below). Once a priority is set, whenever a change of signal is detected 
at the selected input, the monitor will switch the input to that signal. 
In this case of only one signal being present at either input, the monitor automatically detects and 
displays that signal.
