Before connecting the AC power cord to the DC adapter outlet, make sure the voltage
designation of the DC adapter corresponds to the local electrical supply.

Never insert anything metallic into the openings in the cabinet of the Liquid Crystal Display
(LCD) monitor; doing so may create the danger of electric shock.
To avoid electric shock, never touch the inside of the LCD Monitor. Only a qualified
technician should open the case of the LCD Monitor.
Never use your LCD Monitor if the power cord has been damaged. Do not allow anything
to rest on the power cord, and keep the cord away from areas where people can trip over
it.
Be sure to hold the plug, not the cord, when disconnecting the LCD Monitor from an
electric socket.
Openings in the LCD Monitor cabinet are provided for ventilation. To prevent overheating,
these openings should not be blocked or covered. Also, avoid using the LCD Monitor on a
bed, sofa, rug, or other soft surface. Doing so may block the ventilation openings in the
bottom of the cabinet. If you put the LCD Monitor in a bookcase or some other enclosed
space, be sure to provide adequate ventilation.

Put your LCD Monitor in a location with low humidity and a minimum of dust.

Do not expose the LCD Monitor to rain or use it near water (in kitchens, near swimming
pools, etc.). If the LCD Monitor accidentally gets wet, unplug it and contact an authorized
dealer immediately. You can clean the LCD Monitor with a damp cloth when necessary, but
be sure to unplug the LCD Monitor first.
Place the LCD Monitor on a solid surface and treat it carefully. The screen is made of thin
glass with a plastic front surface and can be damaged if dropped, hit or scratched. Do not
clean the front panel with keton-type materials (e.g., acetone), ethyl alcohol, toluene, ethyl
acid, methyl, or chloride – these may damage the panel.
9
Locate your LCD Monitor near an easily accessible AC outlet.
10
11
If your LCD Monitor does not operate normally – in particular, if there are any unusual
sounds or smells coming from it – unplug it immediately and contact an authorized dealer
or service center.
High temperature can cause problems. Don’t use your LCD Monitor in direct sunlight, and
keep it away from heaters, stoves, fireplaces, and other sources of heat.
Unplug the LCD Monitor when it is going to be left unused for an extended period of time.
12

Unplug your LCD Monitor from the AC outlet before any service.

Getting Help
If your monitor does not display an image, check your cable connections and refer to
“Troubleshooting” on page 17. If you experience difficulties with the quality of the displayed
image, run auto adjustment again and refer to “Adjusting Your LCD Monitor” on page 9 or
“Troubleshooting” on page 17.
Plug and Play
®
Our adoption of the new VESA Plug and Play solution eliminates complicated and time
consuming setup. It allows you to install your monitor in a Plug and Play compatible system
without the usual hassles and confusion. Your PC system can easily identify and configure
itself for use with your display. This monitor automatically tells the PC system its Extended
Display Identification (EDID) data using Display Data Channel (DDC) protocols so the PC
system can automatically configure itself to use the LCD Monitor.
Auto Adjustment
Even though your computer system can recognize your new LCD Monitor system, the auto
adjustment function will optimize the display settings for use with your computer. Auto
Adjustment can be accessed through the OSD, see “Image Lock” on page 13 or use the direct
access instructions below:
Turn on your computer and monitor.

Push the AUTO button to open the Auto Adjustment OSD.

Self-Test Feature Check (STFC)
Your monitor provides a self test feature that allows you to check whether your monitor is
functioning properly. If your monitor and computer are properly connected but the monitor
screen remains dark and the power indicator is blinking, run the monitor self-test by
performing the following steps:
Turn off both your computer and the monitor.
1
Unplug the video cable from the back of the computer.
2
Turn on the monitor.
3
If the monitor is functioning properly, you will see a white box with a red border and black
text inside as shown in the following illustration:
No Connection
Check Signal Cable
Figure 5. Monitor self test screen
The three boxes inside the border are red, green and blue. Failure of any of the boxes to
appear indicates a problem with your monitor. This box also appears during normal operation
if the video cable becomes disconnected or damaged.
Turn off your monitor and reconnect the video cable; then turn on both your computer
and the monitor.
4
If your monitor screen remains blank after using the previous procedure, check your video
controller and computer system; your monitor is functioning properly.

Automatic Save
Whenever you open the OSD and allow an adjustment window to remain active for about 3
seconds without pressing another button, the monitor automatically saves any adjustments
you have made. These changes are saved into a user area in the monitor. User areas are
reserved according to the signal frequency from your computer. The monitor can save
adjustments for up to 5 user modes. It has 11 factory preset or preload modes, one for each
signal frequency as listed in “Display Modes” on page 21
If you have made no adjustments, the OSD disappears and the monitor does not save
anything. To exit without saving the changes you have made, press the EXIT button before
the 2 seconds elapse.
Direct-Access Features
The features described in this section can be accessed quickly, at the touch of one button.
Once you finish making adjustments to a feature, push the EXIT button to turn off the menu
