natural_image
Illustration of a computer monitor with two 20° and -5° angular annotations (no text or symbols on the screen itself)Ergonomic guidelines
The recommended screen positioning is based upon the following guidelines. These guidelines are based on available scientific literature and published standards.
Screen height
The recommended screen height for displays (except in special circumstances, such as for bifocal use) is that the top of the display should be set at or slightly below (about 1 inch or 25 mm) your eye level while you are sitting in a comfortable working posture. This guideline places the center of the screen at an ideal 15^ to 20^ viewing angle for most desktop displays.
Screen tilt
The screen should be tilted so your line of sight is perpendicular to the screen. This angle creates the most consistent viewing distance when scanning from the top of the screen to the bottom. You may need to adjust lighting to avoid screen glare when the screen is tilted upward.
Screen distance from user
The screen should first be placed at arm's length from the user, then adjusted back and forth to suit individual preference.
Starting the monitor
▶ To start the monitor:
1 Press the power button on the front of your monitor. The power LED turns from orange to green.
2 Turn on your computer.
After your computer is running, the power LED (centered above the monitor buttons) should be green. Allow about 10 seconds for the display image to appear. If the power LED is not green or you do not see a display image, check the connections. For more troubleshooting information, see "Troubleshooting" on page 13.
3 Adjust the tilt of the monitor for the best viewing angle.
Important
When adjusting the monitor settings, always press the Auto button before entering the OSD. This will automatically adjust the display image to the ideal settings for the current screen resolution.
4 After you see the Windows desktop, press the Auto button (the second button from the right on the front of the monitor) to automatically adjust your display image to the ideal settings. See "Monitor buttons" on page 5.
5 Use the on-screen display (OSD) to adjust other monitor settings. For more information, see "Adjusting monitor settings" on page 5.
Adjusting monitor settings
Use the monitor controls (located on the monitor itself) and computer controls (accessible through Windows) to adjust the display image. For more information about computer controls, see "Changing Windows screen settings" on page 10.

Using the Direct Keys
While the OSD Main Menu is inactive, you can use three direct function keys to change settings.
Auto setup by direct key
Use auto setup whenever you apply a new video mode or change the refresh rate. While auto setup is running, you should have a stable image displayed on the screen. Do not move items around the screen, play games, or view video during auto setup.
After you have executed auto setup for a particular mode, the display will store the new values in its permanent memory.
To use auto setup by direct key:
1 With no OSD menu open, press the Auto button. This starts the auto setup.
The image will change color and appear to jitter during auto setup. After auto setup is complete, you are asked whether the image is OK.

Changing Windows screen settings
Color depth and screen resolution are two of the most basic monitor settings you may need to change to suit your needs.
Color depth is the number of colors your computer uses to display images on your monitor. Most images look best displayed with the maximum number of colors available. If the color in your images seems "false" or "jumpy," especially after you have played a game or run a video-intensive program, check the color depth setting and return it to the highest color setting, if necessary.
Screen resolution is the number of pixels (individual colored dots) your computer uses to display images on your monitor. The higher the resolution, the more information and screen components (such as icons and menu bars) can be displayed on the monitor.

Unknown video modes
Like all other monitors, the LCD monitor is designed to work with standard video modes. However, not all video/graphic cards use only standard display modes. Your LCD monitor uses state-of-the-art technology, which is designed to synchronize to any display mode. We recommend choosing one of the supported modes listed above. If you choose an unknown mode, you will need to manually adjust the clock, phase, and image position. If you must use an unknown mode, you can run Auto Adjust first. If Auto Adjust does not provide adequate image adjustment, then you must manually adjust the clock, phase, horizontal position, and vertical position.
Power management
ENERGY STAR
As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, eMachines has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency.
This monitor complies with the EPA's International ENERGY STAR Program, which is a program designed to encourage manufacturers of computer equipment to build circuitry into their products to reduce energy consumption during time of non-use.
Energy declaration
When connected to a computer that supports the VESA Display Power Management Signaling (DPMS) Protocol, the monitor can conserve significant energy by reducing power consumption during periods of non-use. When your computer goes into the energy saving mode, the monitor enters the Active Off mode (sleep). In the Active Off mode the Power LED turns orange.
Use these conventions and the power can be reduced to the following levels:
VESA state LED indicator Power consumption
On Green <55 W
Active Off Orange <2 W
To "wake" the monitor when it is in Active Off mode, move the mouse or press any keyboard key. Access the power management options in the Control Panel to change the period of time after which the monitor enters these low power states.
Maintaining
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.
Caution
Do not use any type of abrasive pad or glass cleaner. You will permanently scratch the screen.
- To clean the monitor, use a soft cloth slightly moistened with water only. Wipe the cabinet, screen, and controls.
Troubleshooting
Caution
Immediately unplug the monitor from the power outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel if any of the following occurs:
• The power supply cord or plug is damaged.

- Use the position controls to adjust the image. For instructions on how to adjust the display image position, see "Adjusting monitor settings" on page 5.
The image remains after switching off the monitor
- Image persistence is when a "ghost" of an image remains on the screen, even after switching the monitor off. To alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as an image was displayed.
If, for example, the image was on the monitor for one hour and a "ghost" remains, you should switch off the monitor for at least one hour to erase the image.
• We recommend the use of a screen saver whenever the screen is idle.
The image is unstable
- Set your computer to a supported video mode, preferably 1680 x 1050 at 60 Hz.
- Try plugging the monitor into a different, earthed (grounded), power outlet, preferably on a different circuit.

- Make sure that the video cable is correctly plugged into the analog video port on the back of the monitor.
• Make sure that the other end is correctly plugged into the VGA port of your computer.
The monitor has pixels that are always dark or too bright
- This condition is normal and inherent in the TFT technology used in active-matrix LCD screens. eMachines' inspection standards keep these to a minimum. If you feel these pixels are unacceptably numerous or dense on your display, contact eMachines Customer Care to identify whether a repair or replacement is justified based on the number of pixels affected.
