An On Screen Display function that allows easy access to adjust all operations from the front panel.
Plug & Play
This monitor is VESA DDC1/2B compliant when used with a computer compliant with VESA DDC (Display Data Channel).
Automatic colour purity correction
The monitor uses an advanced technology to detect magnetic fields (geomagnetism) and automatically adjusts the image to reduce colour purity distortions common with many monitors.
NOTE:
If as an advanced user, you decide to use an external degaussing coil (other than the degaussing function included in the digital controls of the monitor) it is strongly suggested that the monitor be turned off. If you leave the monitor on while using the external degaussing coil it may cause the monitor to produce uneven colour.

Discontinue Use if Abnormal Operation Occurs!
Abnormal operations such as smoke, burning smell, excessive sound, etc. could cause fire or electrical shock. If you observe any abnormal operation, you should turn off the monitor and disconnect the power plug from the power outlet. You should check for smoke or fire and contact your dealer.
Do not expose the monitor to physical impact!
Do not allow foreign objects (water, metal, etc.) inside!
Never remove the cover of the monitor!
This colour monitor contains high voltage components. Ask your dealer to repair or clean the inside if necessary
The power outlet should be close to the monitor and easily accessible!
Install the unit in an suitable environment!
Do not expose the monitor to rain, moisture, dust, corrosive gases, vibrations, etc. to prevent electrical shock or fire hazard.
Avoid placing the monitor in direct sunlight or near heating appliances.
Do not place the monitor on an unstable base.
Keep in a well ventilated area!
Do not cover this monitor, nor place anything against any of its sides (not only the top, but also including the right and left side of the monitor). The ventilation holes in the cover prevent excessive temperatures inside the monitor.
Beware of magnetic fields!
DO NOT place a magnet, loudspeaker system, floppy disk drive, printer, or any appliance which generates a magnetic field near the unit. A magnetic field may cause blurred colours or distortion of the displayed pattern.
Mind the ambient illumination!
Avoid direct sunlight or artificial light shining directly onto the CRT screen in order to prevent eye fatigue.
Enclosed power cord must be used!
Failure to do so may cause fire or electrical shock hazard.
Use only the correct voltage power outlet with grounded connection!
This monitor will automatically adjust to the input voltage 100 - 120 / 200 - 240V.
Beware of the power cord connection!
Before inserting the plug of the power cord into a power outlet of the correct voltage, check that the connection portion of the power cord is clean (with no dust). Then, insert the plug of power cord into a power outlet firmly to avoid electrical shock or fire hazard.
Remove the power cord for complete disconnection!
For complete disconnection from the power source, remove the power cord from either the monitor or wall socket.
CAUTION (for 200 - 240V operation only)
This equipment relies on the protective devices in the building installation for short-circuit and power surge protection. Refer to the following table for the suitable number and location of the protective devices which should be present in the building's installation.
Informative examples of protective devices in single - phase equipment or sub-assemblies
| Protection against | Minimum number of fuses or circuit - breaker poles | Location | |
| Case A: Equipment connected to POWER SYSTEMS with reliable identified grounded neutral, except for Case C below. | Grounding faults | 1 | Phase conductor |
| Power surge | 1 | Either of the two conductors | |
| Case B: Equipment that is connected to any power supply, including IT POWER SYSTEMS and supplies with reversible plugs, except for Case C below. | Grounding faults | 2 | Both conductors |
| Power surge | 1 | Either of the two conductors | |
| Case C: Equipment that is connected to 3-wire power systems with reliable identified grounded neutral. | Grounding faults | 2 | Each phase conductor |
| Power surge | 2 | Each phase conductor |
Verify that the protective devices in the building installation meet the conditions in the table prior to installing the equipment.
Be careful of static electricity on the CRT surface!
To prevent electrical shock through static electricity on the CRT surface, disconnect the power cord for at least 30 seconds after turning OFF the power before touching the monitor's surface.
Avoid frequent turning ON and OFF switching!
Do not repeatedly turn the monitor OFF and ON during a short period of time. This may cause blurred colours or distortion of the displayed patterns.
Beware of generated magnetism!
After the power has been turned ON, or when the degauss function has been manually engaged, the CRT will be demagnetized for approximately 7 seconds. This generates a strong magnetic field around the front cover which may affect data stored on magnetic tape or disks near this front cover. Move such magnetic recording equipment as well as tapes and disks away from this unit.
Cleaning the Monitor
Before cleaning, turn the monitor OFF and disconnect the plug from the power outlet. For the screen, use water with a lightly moistened soft cloth such as a gauze type material. For the cover, use water or a liquid (non-solvent) synthetic detergent, with a lightly moistened soft cloth. Do not clean the inside of monitor by yourself. Refer this to your dealer.
Do not use aerosol sprays, solvents or abrasive cleaners.

TCO'99 STATEMENT

Congratulations!
You have just purchased a TCO'99 approved and labelled product! Your choice has provided you with a product developed for professional use. Your purchase has also contributed to reducing the burden on the environment and also to the further development of environmentally adapted electronics products.
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides for an international environmental and quality labelling of personal computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation), Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy Administration) and SEMKO AB.
The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, reduction of electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical safety.
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are used both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to satisfactorily recycle the
majority of electronics equipment, most of these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the work (internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics equipment in offices is often left running continuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy.
What does the environmental labelling involve?
The environmental demands has been developed by Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation). These demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental policy which must be adhered to in each country where the company implements its operational policy.
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The length of time to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.
Below you will find a brief summary of the environmental requirements met by this product. The complete environmental criteria document may be ordered from:

Environmental requirements
Flame retardants
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. Their purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride, and those flame retardants are chemically related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants containing bromine or chloride and the PCBs are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals, due to the bio-accumulative processes. Flame retardants have been found in human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may occur.
The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than 25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit boards since no substitutes are available.
Cadmium**
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries, the colour-generating layers of display screens and the electrical or electronics components must not contain any cadmium.
Mercury**
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any mercury. It also demands that mercury is not present in any of the electrical or electronics components associated with the labelled unit. There is however one exception. Mercury is, for the time being, permitted in the back light system of flat panel monitors as there today is no commercially available alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when a mercury free alternative is available.
CFCs (freons)
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufacture and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) as a consequence.
Lead**
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning. The relevant TCO'99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.

- Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.
