Static electricity or other external interference may cause the unit to malfunction. To restore normal operation, turn the power off and then on again. ABOUT THE LCD SCREEN • Some monitors may display so-called "hot pixels" or "dead pixels" (constantly bright pixels or pixels that are permanently off). This is a phenomenon characteristic of such displays and is not considered a malfunction. • When used in cold regions, the screen may appear dark for a while after the power is first turned on. As the unit warms up with time, the screen will return to normal brightness. • Avoid exposing the monitor to direct sunlight, since reflected light may make the image difficult to view. ABOUT MINIATURE FLUORESCENT TUBE TECHNOLOGY The LCD screen is illuminated by internal miniature fluorescent tube technology. • Fluorescent tubes are rated for approximately 10 000 hours of use (lifetime may be shorter when the unit is used in cold regions). • When a fluorescent tube reaches the end of its lifetime, the screen will become darker, making it difficult or impossible to see displayed images. In this event, consult your dealer or service center for repairs. 46 En
