ENERGY STAR is the government-backed symbol for energy efficiency, providing simple, credible, and unbiased information that consumers and

businesses rely on to make well-informed decisions. ENERGY STAR-certified products are the simple choice for energy efficiency, making it easy for

consumers and businesses to make purchases that save them money and protect the environment. The U.S. EPA ensures that each product that earns the

label is independently certified to deliver the quality, performance, and savings that users have come to expect.

As shipped, your display delivers ENERGY STAR performance and savings. However, changing some settings may increase energy consumption beyond

the limits required for ENERGY STAR certification. For example, increased brightness and contrast will increase power consumption.

Please consider the environment when you choose non-ENERGY STAR settings.
