1.2Safety Instructions
Safe Environment
Do not store or use the InterView in locations that are exposed to heat, extreme cold, high
humidity or dusty environment. Room temperature conditions are recommended.
Do not subject InterView to severe vibrations or high impact conditions.
Do not allow water or other liquids to spill on or into InterView.
InterView may become unstable if not placed on a solid and horizontal surface.
Safe Use
To avoid electric shock, never touch the components inside of InterView. Only a qualified
technician should open the monitor case.
Do not try to insert anything metallic or push objects into any openings.
Do not use benzene, thinner, ammonia, abrasive cleaners, or compressed air as these will
cause damage to the LCD screens. If possible, use a special screen-cleaning tissue or
solution suitable for the anti-static coating.
Handle your monitor with care as darker-colored plastics may scratch and show scuff
marks.
Keep hands off the gap between the stand and the panel as injury may take place while
rotating or folding the LCD portion of InterView.
Unplug the monitor when it is going to be left unused for an extended period of time or
before any type of service is performed.
Consider keeping the packaging for use in the future when you may need to transport the
monitor. The fitted foam packing is ideal for protecting the monitor during transport.

7.2Pixel Policy
The EVGA monitor is evaluated on the number of acceptable non-performing pixels and the
distance between each non-performing pixels. The terms “non-performing” and “defective
pixels/sub-pixels” are used interchangeably for ease of identification. All monitors have been
tested to ensure they comply with this standard.
To identify non-performing pixels, the monitor shall be viewed under normal operating
conditions, preferably in its native resolution, and from a normal viewing distance of at least
50 cm (16 in.).
During the LCD Monitor manufacturing process, it is not uncommon for one or more pixels to
become fixed in an unchanging state. The visible result is a fixed pixel that appears as an
extremely tiny dark or bright discolored dot. When the pixel remains permanently lit, it is
known as a “bright dot.” When the pixel remains black, it is known as a “dark dot.”
In almost every case, these fixed pixels are hard to see and do not detract from display
quality or usability. A display with 1 to 5 bright or dark dots is considered normal and within
industry standards.
30
Your LCD display is subject to replacement if it meets the criteria outlined in the following
table:
Product Bright Dots Dark Dots Total Dots
Combination of Bright
and Dark = 6 or more
InterView 6 or more
6 or more
