ÅWARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your

equipment: Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The

grounding plug is an important safety feature.

Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is

easily accessible at all times.

Disconnect power from the monitor by unplugging the power cord

from the electrical outlet.

Do not place anything on power cords or cables. Arrange them so

that no one may accidentally step on or trip over them. Do not pull on

a cord or cable. When unplugging from the electrical outlet, grasp

the cord by the plug.

ÄCAUTION: Burn-in image damage may occur on monitors that

display the same static image on screen for a prolonged period of

time. To avoid burn-in image damage on your monitor screen, you

should always activate a screen saver application or turn off the

monitor when it is not in use for a prolonged period of time.

Selecting the Signal Connectors and Cables

There are two signal input connectors: one VGA connector and

one DVI-I connector. The monitor will automatically determine

which inputs have valid video signals. The inputs can be selected

via the On-Screen Display (OSD) feature or by pressing the

Signal Input Selection control on the monitor front bezel.

The video mode supported by the DVI-I connector is

determined by the video cable used. For digital operation, use

the DVI-D to DVI-D signal cable provided. For analog operation,

a DVI-I to VGA signal cable must be attached to the DVI-I input

(not provided with the monitor).
