Precautions  
Sit at least 18"(45 cm) away from the screen when in use.  
Do not press on the LCD panel as it is very fragile.  
Do not touch the LCD panel with your bare hands. Oil from your skin is difficult to  
remove and may damage the screen.  
Do not expose the LCD monitor directly under sunlight or other heat sources. When in  
use, the LCD screen should be facing away from light sources to reduce glare.

ventilation. Do not place anything on top of the LCD monitor.
