About this manual  
The BT-L2150P/2150E and the BT-L1500P/1500E is referred to as “the unit” in this manual.  
The images and diagrams used in this manual are for reference purposes and may differ from the actual product  
and displays.  
HDMI, the HDMI logo, and High-Definition Multimedia Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of  
HDMI Licensing LLC in the United States and other countries.  
Adobe® Reader® is a trademark of Adobe Systems Incorporated.  
Page references are indicated as “(J page 00)” in this manual.  
Precautions for Use  
The LCD monitor is manufactured with high-precision technology and has an effective pixel count of over  
99.99 %. However, less than 0.01 % of pixels may be stuck or dead in some cases. This is not a malfunction and  
has no effect on the recorded images.  
Wiping the protective panel with a hard cloth, or rubbing it vigorously will scratch the surface.  
If a still image is displayed for an extended period of time, it may generate a temporary afterimage (phosphor  
burn-in). (However, such images can be removed by displaying normal video for a while.)  
The response speed and brightness of liquid crystal vary with ambient temperatures.  
Do not install the unit in a place exposed to direct sunlight, as it may damage the cabinet and the LCD screen.  
Do not install the unit in locations where enough space cannot be provided around it as heat may build up inside  
preventing normal operation. Be sure to provide enough space around the unit.  
Exposing the LCD screen to intense light sources will impair its characteristics and lower image quality.  
In an environment exposed to drastic temperature fluctuations, condensation may build up on and inside the  
LCD screen. This may lower the quality of the screen and may damage it.  
Some video images may appear blurred on the screen.  
Leaving the unit in a location exposed to high temperature and humidity for an extended period of time may  
damage the LCD screen and cause blurring.  
Streaks of light may be seen in the area between the edge of the screen and the frame; this is normal and not a  
malfunction.  
The LCD panel is covered by a protective panel to protect it from damage during transportation. Remove the  
protective panel before use.  
This unit does not support VIERA Link. If the unit is connected to a VIERA-Link-compatible device via an HDMI  
cable, VIERA Link functions on the other device may not operate properly.

Maintenance Inspections  
Maintenance inspections through periodic and appropriate maintenance are essential to keep the monitor in  
optimum condition and ensure safe operation. Be sure to conduct the following maintenance inspections to enable  
long-term and full use of all its functions.  
Necessity of periodic maintenance service  
The backlight in the LCD panel is a consumable component that deteriorates over time leading to gradual loss of  
performance that could eventually result in a malfunction.  
Conventional after-sales service that replaces parts when they break down should therefore be combined with a  
regularly conducted comprehensive service to maintain normal operation and prevent unforeseen breakdown of  
consumables.  
Maintenance  
Clean the cabinet and protective panel by gently wiping them with a soft cloth.  
To remove stubborn soiling, use a cloth dampened in a weak neutral detergent solution and thoroughly wrung  
out. Then wipe with a dry cloth.Any moisture entering the monitor could damage it.  
Do not use benzene, thinner and similar solvents for cleaning.  
They could discolor the surface and cause the paint to peel.  
Do not directly expose the monitor to spray cleaning.  
Any moisture entering the monitor could damage it.
