CAUTION: Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures other than

those specified in this documentation may result in exposure to shock,

electrical hazards, and/or mechanical hazards.

and can be damaged if dropped or hit sharply.

∞Always be sure that your monitor is electrically rated to operate with the AC

power available in your location.

∞Keep the monitor in room temperature. Excessive cold or hot conditions can have

an adverse effect on the liquid crystal of the display.

∞Do not subject the monitor to severe vibration or high impact conditions. For

example, do not place the monitor inside a car trunk.

∞Unplug the monitor when it is going to be left unused for an extended period of

time.

Product features

The Dell S3422DWG monitor has an active matrix, Thin-Film Transistor (TFT),

Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), anti-static, and LED backlight. The monitor features

include:

resolution, with full-screen support for lower resolutions.

∞Supports the high refresh rates of 100 Hz and 144 Hz and a rapid response time

of 1 ms in MPRT mode.

NOTE: 1 ms is achievable in the MPRT mode to reduce visible motion blur and

increased image responsiveness. However, this may introduce some slight and

noticeable visual artifacts into the image. As every system setup and every

gamer’s needs are different, we recommend that users experiment with the

different modes to find the setting that is right for them.

gaming.
