About Choosing the Proper Installation Site
The ideal installation site for your LCD display is a high-visibility location with physical stability that:
• Allows for adequate ventilation and clearance.
• Is protected from heat sources.
• Is not readily accessible to children or others who might lack the personal judgment or physical
coordination to recognize, avoid, and prevent danger to themselves and others.
To learn more about choosing the proper site for installations and about our recommended best practices
that promote your safety and success, see
Table 1-1.
Ta b l e 1-1 Attributes of a Proper Installation Site
Consideration Details
Environmental
factors
If the installation site for your display is one where it will operate 24 hours a day, such as an airport or
train station, or where its will be exposed to:
• Heavy dust
• High or low temperatures
• High humidity
• Chemical substances
Be sure that only a qualified technician performs the installation. Personnel who are not qualified might
not understand how to prevent serious damage to your LCD display that can occur in such settings.
Ventilation and
clearance
To ensure reliable operation of your display and to protect it from overheating, which might result
in
fire:
• Install your display in a well ventilated location with more than 10 cm clearance from the wall.
• Never block or cover the slots and openings in the display cabinet, including those on the back and
bottom. They provide necessary ventilation.
• Never cover the slots and openings with a cloth or other materials.
• Never block the slots and openings by placing your display on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar
surface.
• Never place your display in a confined space, such as a rack, bookcase, closet, or built-in cabinet,
unless it provides sufficient ventilation.

• Never operate this product near lit candles, mosquito repellent, cigarettes, or any heating
appliances.
• Keep heating appliances as far away from the power cord and the display as possible.

or a location exposed to vibration.
