Precautions - Acer Computer monitor Owner's Manual

PRECAUTIONS

Do not use the monitor near water, e.g. near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen
sink, laundry tub, swimming pool or in a wet basement.
Do not place the monitor on an unstable cart, stand, or table. If the
monitor falls, it can injure a person and cause serious damage to the
appliance. Use only a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer or
sold with the monitor. If you mount the monitor on a wall or shelf, use a
mounting kit approved by the manufacturer and follow the kit
instructions.
Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for
ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the monitor and to protect it
from overheating, be sure these openings are not blocked or covered. Do
not place the monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface. Do not place
the monitor near or over a radiator or heat register. Do not place the
monitor in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.
The monitor should be operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to
your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
The monitor is equipped with a three-pronged grounded plug, a plug with
a third (grounding) pin. This plug will fit only into a grounded power
outlet as a safety feature. If your outlet does not accommodate the three-
wire plug, have an electrician install the correct outlet, or use an adapter
to ground the appliance safely. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
grounded plug.
Unplug the unit during a lightning storm or when it will not be used for
long periods of time. This will protect the monitor from damage due to
power surges.
Do not overload power strips and extension cords. Overloading can result
in fire or electric shock.
Never push any object into the slot on the monitor cabinet. It could short
circuit parts causing a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquids on the
monitor.
Do not attempt to service the monitor yourself; opening or removing
covers can expose you to dangerous voltages and other hazards. Please
refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
To ensure satisfactory operation, use the monitor only with UL listed
computers which have appropriate configured receptacles marked
between 100 - 240V AC, Min. 2.5A.
The wall socket shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily
accessible.
Attention: Disconnect the power cord to stop the power supply to the
monitor.
