2 Safety and Maintenance Guidelines Important Safety Information A power cord is included with the monitor. If anot her cord is used, use only a power source and connection appr opriate for this moni tor. For information on th e correct power cord set to use with th e monitor, refer to Power Cord Set Requireme nts on page 43 in Appendix C. WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock o r damage to the equ ipment: • Do not disable the power cord groundi ng feature. The grounding plug is an importan t safety feature. • Plug the power cord in to a grounded (ea rthed) electr ical outlet that is easily accessible at all times. • Disconnect power from the product b y unpluggin g the powe r cord from the electrical outlet. For your safety, d o not place anything o n power cords or cables. Arrang e them so that no one ma y accidentally st ep on or trip o ver them. Do not pull on a cord or ca ble. When unplugg ing from the elect rical outlet, grasp the cord b y the plug. To reduce th e risk of serious injury, read the Safety and Comfort Guide . It describes prop er workstation, setup, posture, and he alth and work habits for comp uter users, and provides important electrical and mechanical safety information. This guide is located on the Web at http://www.hp.com/ ergo an d/or on the documentation CD, if one is included with the mo nitor. CAUTION: For the protection of the monitor, as well as the computer, connect all power cords for the computer and its pe ripheral devices (such as a mo nitor, printer, scanner) to some form of surge protection device such as a power strip or Uninte rruptible Power Supply (U PS). Not all powe r strips provide surge prote ction; the power st rips must be specifically labeled as ha ving this ability. Use a power strip whose manufacturer offe rs a Damage Replace ment Policy so you can rep lace the equipment, if surge protection fails. Maintenance Guidelines To enhance th e performance and extend the life o f the monitor: ● Do not open the mo nitor cabinet or attempt to se rvice this product yourself. Adjust only those controls that are covered in th e operating instru ctions. If the monitor is not operating prope rly or has been dropped or damaged, contact an author ized HP dealer, reseller, or service provid er. ● Use only a power source an d connection appro priate for this monitor, as in dicated on the label/ back plate of the moni tor. ● Be sure the total ampere rating of the products connected to the outlet does not e xceed the current rating of the electrical o utlet, and the total am pere ratin g of the products connected to the cord doe s ENWW Important Safety Information 3
not exceed the rating of the cord. Look on the power label to determine the ampere rating (AMPS or A) for each device. ● Install the monitor near an o utlet that you can eas ily re ach. Disconnect the monitor by grasping the plug firmly and pulling it from the outlet. Never disconne ct the monitor by pulling the cord. ● Turn the monito r off when not i n use. You can s ubstantially incre ase the life exp ectancy of the monitor by using a scree n saver progra m and turning off the monitor wh en not in u se. NOTE: Monitors with a “burned-in imag e” are not covered un der the HP w arranty. ● Slots and openings in the cabinet are provid ed for ventilation. These op enings must not be blocked or covered. Never push objects o f any kind into cabinet slots or other opening s. ● Do not drop the mon itor or place it on a n unstable surface . ● Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not wa lk on the cord. ● Keep the monitor in a well-ventilated ar ea, away from excessive light, heat or moisture. Cleaning the Monitor 1. Turn off the monitor and u nplug the power cord from the back of th e unit. 2. Dust the monitor by wip ing the screen and the cabinet with a soft, cle an antistatic clot h. 3. For more difficult cle aning situation s, use a 50/50 mix of water and Isopro pyl alcohol. CAUTION: Spray the cleaner onto a cloth and use the damp cloth to gently wipe the screen surface. Never spray the cleaner directly on the screen surf ace. It may run beh ind the bezel an d damage the electron ics.

Japanese Notice Korean Notice Power Cord Set Requirements The monitor power supply is provided with Automati c Line Switching (ALS). This feature allows the monitor to operate on in put voltages be tween 100–120V or 20 0–240V. The power cord set (flexible cord or wall plug) received with the mo nitor meets the requirements for use in the country where you purchased the equipment. If you need to obtain a power cord for a differ ent country, you should purc hase a power cord that is approved for use in that countr y. The power cord must b e rated for the product and for the vol tage and current m arked on the produ ct's electrical ratings label. T he voltage and curre nt rating of the cord should be greater than the voltage and current rating marked on the pr oduct. In addition, the cross-sectional area of the wire must b e a minimum of 0.75 mm² or 18 AWG, and the leng th of the cord must be between 6 f eet (1.8 m) an d 12 feet (3.6 m). If you have questions about the type of powe r cord to use, contact an authoriz ed HP service provider.

Product Environmental Notices ENERGY STAR® Qualification HP Displays marked with the ENERGY STAR® certif ication mark m eet the requirements of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ENER GY STAR program. The EPA ENERGY STAR® certification mark does not imply endorsement by the EPA. As an ENERGY STAR Partner, Hewlett Packard Company has determined t hat this product mee ts the ENERGY STAR® pr ogram requirements for display energy efficiency. The following ENERGY STAR® cert ification mark appears on all ENERGY STAR qualified displays: The ENERGY STAR® program specifications for di splays and computers were created by the EPA to promote energy efficiency and reduce air po llution through more energy-efficient equipme nt in homes, offices, and fa ctories. One way prod ucts achieve this go al is by using the Micros oft Windows p ower management feat ure to reduce power cons umption when the product is not in use . The power management feature e nables the co mputer to ini tiate a low-power or “sleep ” mode after a period of user inactivity. Whe n used with an exter nal ENERGY STAR® qualified disp lay, this feature also supports similar power manageme nt features for the display. To take advant age of these potential energy savings, users should use the defau lt po wer mana gement settings that are provid ed with ENERGY STAR qualifi ed computers an d displays. The defau lt power management settings on ENERGY STAR qualified computer s are preset to behave in th e following ways when the system is operatin g on AC power: ● Turn off an external di splay after 15 minutes of user ina ctivity ● Initiate a low power sle ep mode for the comp uter after 30 minutes of user inactivity ENERGY STAR® qualified computer s exit the low power sleep mode and ENERGY STAR qualifi ed displays resume operation when the user resume s use of the comp uter. Examples include the user pressing the po wer/sleep bu tton, receiving an input sign al from an inp ut device, receiving a n input signal from a network connecti on with the Wake On LAN (WOL) feature enabled, etc. Additional information on the ENERGY STAR® pro gra m, its enviro nmental benefits and th e potential energy and financial savings of the power management featur e can be found on the EPA ENERGY STAR Power Managem ent Web site at http://www.energystar.gov/ powermanage ment .

D LCD Monitor Quality and Pixel Policy The TFT monitor u ses high-precision techno logy, manufactured accordin g to HP standards, to guarantee trouble-free performanc e. Nevertheless, the display may have cosmetic imperfections that appear as small b right or dark sp ots. This is commo n to all LCD displa ys used in products supp lied by all vendors and is not sp ecific to the H P LCD. Thes e imperfections are caused by one or more defe ctive pixels or sub-pixels. ● A pixel consists of one red, o ne green, and one blue sub-pixel. ● A defective whole pixel is always turned on (a br ight spot on a dark background), or it is a lways off (a dark spot on a bright backgroun d). The first is the mo re visible of the two. ● A defective sub-pixel (dot defect) is less visible than a defective whol e pixel and is small and only visible on a spe cific background. To locate defective pixe ls, the monitor should be vie wed under norma l operating cond itions, in normal operating mode at a su pported resolutio n and refresh rate, from a distance of approximately 50 cm (20 in). HP expects that, over time , the industry will co ntinue to improve its ability to produce LCDs with fewer cosmetic imperfections and HP will adjust guidelines as improvements are made. ENWW 47
