English WARNING Do not touch a damaged LCD panel directly with bare hands. The liquid crystal which leaks from the panel is poisonous if it enters the eyes or mouth. If any part of the skin or body comes in direct contact with the panel, please wash thoroughly. If some physical symptoms result, please consult your doctor. Follow local regulation or laws for safe disposal. The backlight of the LCD panel contains mercury. CAUTION Handle with care when carrying the unit.
English LCD Panel In order to suppress the luminosity change by long-term use and to maintain the stable luminosity, please use the monitor with the brightness below 160 cd/m2 (BRIGHTNESS approximately 70 %). The screen may have defective pixels. These pixels may appear as slightly light or dark area on the screen. This is due to the characteristics of the panel itself, and not the product.

English 10. GLOSSARY Afterimage The Afterimage is particular to LCD monitors when the monitor screen is left on for a long period without use. The “Afterimage” can be removed gradually by changing the displayed image. Clock With the analog input signal display, the analog signal is converted to a digital signal by the LCD circuitry. To convert the signal correctly, the LCD monitor needs to produce the same number clock pulse as the dot clock of the graphics system.
English Gamma Generally, the relationship that the light intensity values of a monitor change nonlinearly to the input signal level is called “Gamma Characteristic”. On the monitor, low gamma values display the whitish images and high gamma values display the high contrast images. Phase The phase adjustment decides the sampling timing point for converting the analog input signal to a digital signal. Adjusting the phase after the clock adjustment will produce a clear screen.
