Overview 1 Chapter Chapter 1 Overview Precautions On Safety • Operate the unit only with a power source as specified in the "Specifications" section. • A nameplate indicating operating voltage, power consumption, etc., is located on the rear panel. • Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further. • Do not drop or place heavy objects on the power cord. If the power cord is damaged, turn off the power immediately. It is dangerous to use the unit with a damaged power cord. • Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be used for several days or more. • Disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet by grasping the plug, not by pulling the cord. • The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible. On Installation • Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build-up. Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation holes. • Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock. For BVM-E250A only When installing the installation space must be secured in consideration of the ventilation and service operation. • Do not block the ventilation slots, and vents of the fans. • Leave a space around the unit for ventilation. • Leave more than 40 cm of space in the rear of the unit to secure the operation area. When the unit is installed on the desk or the like, leave at least 1U (4.4 cm) or more of space above and below the unit. Leaving 40 cm or more of space above the unit is recommended for service operation. Handling the Screen • The OLED panel fitted to this unit is manufactured with high precision technology, giving a functioning pixel ratio of at least 99.99%. Thus a very small proportion of pixels may be "stuck", either always off (black), always on (red, green, or blue), or flashing. In addition, over a long period of use, because of the physical characteristics of the panel, such "stuck" pixels may appear spontaneously. These problems are not a malfunction. • Do not leave the screen facing the sun as it can damage the screen. Take care when you place the unit by a window. • Do not push or scratch the monitor's screen. Do not place a heavy object on the monitor's screen. This may cause the screen to lose uniformity. • The screen and the cabinet become warm during operation. This is not a malfunction. On Burn-in Due to the characteristics of the material used in the OLED panel, permanent burn-in or reduction in brightness may occur. These problems are not a malfunction. Images that may cause burn-in • Masked images with aspect ratios other than 16:9 • Color bars or images that remain static for a long time • Character or message displays that indicate settings or the operating state • On-screen displays such as center markers or area markers 7 Precautions
