GETTING STARTED
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Only use the power cord and AC adapter included with the monitor, it provides the correct type
of power and was tested for use with your product.
Plug the power cord into an AC outlet that is always easily accessible. Disconnect the monitor by
grasping the plug firmly and pulling it from the AC outlet. Never disconnect the monitor by
pulling the cord.
The power cord is equipped with a three-wire grounded (earthed) plug. The plug only fits in a
grounded power outlet. Make sure the power outlet is properly grounded before inserting the
power cord plug. Do not disable the power cord grounding pin, for example by attaching a 2-pin
adapter. The grounding pin is an important safety feature.
Be sure that the total ampere rating of the products connected to the AC outlet does not exceed
the current rating of the outlet, and that the total ampere rating of the products connected to the
cord does not exceed the rating of the cord. Also, make sure that the total rating of all products
plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the fuse rating. Look on the power label to
determine the ampere rating (AMPS or A) for each device.
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. These openings must not be
blocked or covered. Never push objects of any kind into cabinet slots or other openings, or spill
liquid of any kind onto or into the product.
Keep the monitor in a well-ventilated area, away from excessive light, heat, or moisture.
Do not use the monitor in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, as sparks in such
areas could cause an explosion or fire. Such areas are often (but not always) marked and include
areas where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine, below deck on boats,
chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquefied gas such as propane or butane,
and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
For the protection of the monitor, as well as the computer, connect all power cords for the
computer and its peripheral devices (such as a monitor, printer, scanner) to some form of surge
protection device such as a power strip or uninterruptible power supply (UPS). Not all power
strips provide surge protection; the power strips must be specifically labeled as having this
capability. Use a power strip whose manufacturer offers a damage replacement policy so you
can replace the equipment if surge protection fails.
To reduce the risk of serious injury, observe proper workstation setup, and proper posture,
health, and work habits for computer users.
Do not place anything on power cords or cables. Care should be taken to route or arrange all
cords and cables connected to Spectrum so that they cannot be pulled, grabbed, stepped on, or
tripped over.
Do not drop the monitor or place it on an unstable or vibrating surface. Use the appropriate and
correctly sized furniture designed to properly support your Dough Spectrum. Monitors that are
inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests, or carts may
fall over and cause damage or personal injury.
This product is suitable for entertainment purposes. Consider placing the monitor in a controlled
luminous environment to avoid interference from surrounding light and bright surfaces that may
cause disturbing reflections from the screen.
