cables and power cord. Follow the correct lifting techniques when

positioning the monitor. When lifting or carrying the monitor, grasp the

edges of the monitor. Do not lift the display by the stand or the cord.

• Cleaning. Turn your monitor off and unplug the power cord. Clean the

monitor surface with a lint-free, non-abrasive cloth. Stubborn stains

may be removed with a cloth dampened with mild cleaner.

screen, as it may drip inside the monitor and cause an electric shock.

The following symptoms are normal with the monitor:

fluorescent light. Turn off the Power Switch and turn it on again to

make sure that the flicker disappears.

• Youmayfindslightlyunevenbrightnessonthescreendependingon

the desktop pattern you use.

• When the same image is displayed for hours, an afterimage of the

previous screen may remain after switching the image. The screen will

recover slowly or you can turn off the Power Switch for hours.

• When the screen becomes black or flashes, or cannot work anymore,

contact your dealer or service center to fix it. Do not repair the screen

by yourself!
