Safety Precautions - Acer LCD Monitor 48cm(19”) TFT Color 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
ground the appliance safely. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
grounded plug.
Unplug the unit during a lightening storm or when it will not be used
for long period 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 by 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. 5A.
The wall socket shall be installed near the equipment and shall be
easily accessible.
