Precautions  
Workplace Preparation  
Positioning the Monitor  
Choose a suitable place to position the monitor where it is not near  
fluorescent desk lighting or any equipment that produces magnetic fields  
that could cause interference. Ensure that the furniture or equipment can  
support the weight of the monitor. Allow at least 50mm (2 in.) ventilation  
space around the monitor.  
Height  
Position the monitor so that the top of the screen is slightly below your  
eye level when you sit at your workstation.  
Orientation  
- Choose a position that gives the least reflection from lights and  
windows, usually at a right angle to any windows.  
- Position the monitor directly in front of you so that you do not have to  
twist your body.  
- Tilt the monitor to a comfortable viewing angle.  
Working Practices  
Rest  
Take regular breaks. Vary your posture, and stand up and stretch  
occasionally as prolonged use of computer workstations can be tiring.  
Back  
Sit back in the chair and use the back rest.  
Hands  
Use a light touch on the keyboard, keeping your hands and fingers  
relaxed. Allow a space in front of the keyboard to rest your wrists when  
not typing. Consider using a wristpad.  
Eyesight  
Working with monitors, in common with any prolonged close work, can  
be visually demanding. Look away from the screen periodically and have  
your eyesight checked regularly.  
A2  
 
Precautions  
Screen settings  
Set the screen brightness and contrast to a comfortable level. You may  
have to adjust this as the lighting changes during the day. Many  
application programs let you select color combinations which can help  
you to view in comfort.  
Power Cord  
For safe operation, use the power cord supplied with the unit.  
Notes  
Do not install the monitor in a location near heat sources such as  
radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, or  
excessive dust or mechanical vibration or shock.  
Save the original shipping carton and packing materials, as they will  
come in handy if you ever have to ship your monitor.  
To keep the monitor looking new, periodically clean it with a soft cloth.  
Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with a  
mild detergent solution. Never use strong solvents such as thinner,  
benzene, or abrasive cleaners, since these will damage the cabinet. As  
a safety precaution, always unplug the monitor before cleaning it.

Troubleshooting  
No image appears  
Is the power cord of the  
monitor connected?  
Check and see if the power cord is connected properly to  
the power outlet.  
Is the power indicator light  
on?  
Press the Power button.  
Is the power on and the  
power indicator green?  
Adjust the brightness and the contrast.  
Is the power indicator  
amber?  
If the monitor is in power saving mode, try moving the  
mouse or pressing any key on the keyboard to bring up  
the screen.  
Do you see an "OUT OF  
FREQUENCY" message  
on the screen?  
This message appears when the signal from the PC  
(video card) is out of horizontal or vertical frequency  
range of the monitor. See the 'Specifications' section of  
this manual and configure your monitor again.  
Do you see a "SELF  
DIAGNOSITICS" message  
on the screen?  
This message appears when the signal cable between  
your PC and your monitor is not connected. Check the  
signal cable and try again.  
The screen is flickering.  
Is the vertical frequency  
less than 70Hz or is your  
monitor set to the  
Set the vertical frequency to 72Hz or higher, and  
consult the video card user manual for instructions on  
converting to a non-interlaced mode.  
(You can set this option under the Display icon of the  
Control Panel.)  
interlaced mode?  
Do you have any  
magnetic material such  
as adapter, or high-  
voltage line near to your  
monitor?  
Remove magnetic sources, such as power  
adapters, speakers, or high-voltage lines, away from  
the monitor.  
Do you hear a "~ding"  
sound while the monitor  
is flickering?  
Use the normal degaussing function. This function  
clears the screen and reduces any screen blur that  
may occur due to the surrounding magnetic field. The  
screen may flicker for about 5 seconds, accompanied  
by a "~ding" sound.  
A13  
 
Troubleshooting  
The screen color is not normal.  
Do you see basic  
discoloration (16 colors)?  
Set the color depth to 256 colors or higher: use 'Control  
Panel' 'Display' 'Settings' 'Color Palette'  
Is the screen color unstable  
or monochrome?  
Check the connection of the signal cable.  
Do you see a partial  
blurring on the screen?  
This happens due to interference from surrounding  
magnetic fields, as created when speakers, steel  
structures, or high-voltage lines are placed near the  
monitor. Remove any such materials from the  
immediate vicinity and use the DEGAUSS icon on the  
screen adjustment menu to fix the screen.  
I see an after-image on the screen.  
Do you see the after-image  
even when you turn off  
the monitor?  
A premature aging of the monitor pixels may cause the  
prolonged display of a single image on the screen. Be  
sure to use a screen saver to maximize the service life of  
the monitor.  
I see waves on the screen.  
Do you see the wave  
directly on the screen?  
This occurs in inverse proportion to the screen focus,  
which can be caused by a particular frequency or video  
card. Brighten the screen and use the 'MOIRE' icon on  
the screen adjustment menu to adjust the screen.  
Have you installed the monitor driver?  
Have you installed the

Be sure to install the monitor driver from the IBM Monitor  
CD that comes with your monitor.
