Maintenance

To keep the monitor in optimal working order:

■

Do not block the ventilation holes.

■

Do not expose the monitor to rain or use near water.

■

Keep the monitor away from radiators or heat vents.

■

Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight.

To clean the monitor, use a soft cloth slightly moistened with water only. Wipe the cabinet, 
screen, and controls.

If you have problems with the monitor, the information in this troubleshooting section 
may help you solve them.

Make sure that the power cord is connected correctly to both the back of the monitor 
and the wall outlet. For more information about connecting the power cord, see 
“Connecting the monitor” on page 2.

Do not use any type of abrasive pad or glass cleaner. You will 
permanently scratch the screen.

Make sure that the monitor has warmed up for approximately 
30 minutes before making any judgments about the picture quality.
