Safety Precautions Maintaining air ¿lters The cooling structure of the Display is designed to circulate air taken in from outside inside the Display using fans. Air ¿lters are built into the inlet and outlet. When "Filter" is displayed on the screen as you turn on the power, or when the power indicator is blinking green and orange alternately, there is accumulated dust on the air ¿lters. Check the condition of the air ¿lter and fan in "Maintenance Information" in the Setup menu, and clean or replace the air ¿lter and inspect the fan as necessary. (see page 42) How to remove air ¿lters Always unplug the power plug before removing air ¿lters. 1 Loosen the decorative screws on the exhaust vent sections until they turn freely.

Cleaning air ¿lters To clean the air ¿lter, soak in a neutral detergent diluted 200 times with water, rinse well in water, and leave to dry in the shade. Notes: • Air ¿lters must be installed before using the Display. The absence of an air ¿lter may cause failure in the Display due to the intake of foreign matter or dust. • When an air ¿lter is damaged or is unobtrusively soiled even after cleaning, replace the air ¿lter with a new one. Contact your sales agent for replacement. • The amount of foreign matter or dust adhering to air ¿lters varies depending on the installation location and the used hours. Increase the frequency of cleaning in locations where dust can easily accumulate. • Do not remove the wire mesh below the air ¿lter. • Do not touch the fans or wiring inside the Display. • When removing air ¿lters from or installing into the Display set on a high place, take care of your own safety, and avoid the concerned parts falling. • Clean the air ¿lters approximately once every 3 months and replace them approximately once a year. 5
