IMPORTANT: A USB Type-C cable for power and data is included with the monitor. Use only the supplied cable when connecting the monitor to a computer.

WARNING! To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the Safety & Comfort Guide. It describes proper workstation setup, and proper posture, health, and work habits for computer users. This guide is located on the Web at http://www.hp.com/ergo.

WARNING! LCD monitors that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests, or carts may fall over and cause personal injury.

Care should be taken to route the USB cable connected to the LCD monitor so that it can not be pulled, grabbed, or tripped over.

CAUTION: Use the appropriate and correctly sized furniture designed to properly support your HP LCD monitor.

CAUTION: Do not pick up the monitor by its protective case. The case and monitor are attached together by magnets. If held improperly, the monitor could detach from the case and fall.

Maintenance guidelines

To enhance the performance and extend the life of the monitor:

- Do not open the monitor cabinet or attempt to service this product yourself. Adjust only those controls that are covered in the operating instructions. If the monitor is not operating properly or has been dropped or damaged, contact an authorized HP dealer, reseller, or service provider.

Cleaning the monitor

1. Turn off the monitor and unplug the USB cable from the back of the unit.
2. Dust the monitor by wiping the screen and the cabinet with a soft, clean antistatic cloth.
3. For more difficult cleaning situations, use a 50/50 mix of water and Isopropyl alcohol.

CAUTION: Spray the cleaner onto a cloth and use the damp cloth to gently wipe the screen surface. Never spray the cleaner directly on the screen surface. It may run behind the bezel and damage the electronics.

CAUTION: Do not use cleaners that contain any petroleum based materials such as benzene, thinner, or any volatile substance to clean the monitor screen or cabinet. These chemicals may damage the monitor.

Shipping the monitor

Keep the original packing box in a storage area. You may need it later if you move or ship the monitor.

●Night: Adjusts the monitor to the lowest blue light output
- Reading: Optimizes both blue light and brightness for indoor viewing
