6. The ventilation openings in the monitor's case allow heat to be
released. If these openings are blocked, heat built up inside the
monitor may cause failures which result in a fire hazard. These
precautions should be taken:
• Never block the bottom ventilation slots by placing it on a bed,
sofa, rug, etc.
• Never place a set in a "built-in" enclosure unless proper venti-
lation is provided.
• Never cover the ventilation openings with cloth or other material.
• Never place the set near or over a radiator or heat register.
7. To avoid personal injury, take these precautions:
• Do not place the monitor on a sloping shelf unless it is properly
secured.
• Place the monitor only on a cart or stand that has been recom-
mended by the manufacturer for that purpose.
• Do not place the monitor on a cart with small casters and try to
roll it across door thresholds or deep-pile carpets.
• To mount the monitor on a shelf, use the factory-approved
instructions.
Using the Monitor
1. Always turn the set off if it is necessary to leave the room for more
than a short period of time. Never leave a set on when you leave
the house. A malfunction may result in a fire hazard.
2. Caution children about dropping or pushing objects into the set's
cabinet openings. Some internal parts carry hazardous voltages
and contact can result in electrical shock.
3. Unplug the monitor from the wall outlet before cleaning the face of
the picture tube. Use a slightly damp (not wet) cloth. Do not use
an aerosol directly on the picture tube since overspray can cause
electrical shock.
4. Never add accessories to a monitor that have not been designed
tor this purpose. Such additions may create an electrical shock
hazard.
