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. Dont use your LCD Monitor in direct sunlight, and  
keep it away from heaters, stoves, replaces, and other sources of heat.  
Unplug the LCD Monitor when it is going to be left unused for an extended period of time.

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.

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.

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.

PowerSaver  
This monitor has a built-in power management system called PowerSaver. This system saves  
energy by switching your monitor into a low-power mode when it has not been used for a
