T echnical Specifications B–8 User’ s Guide LCD Monitor Quality and Pixel Policy The HP LCD Monitor uses high-precision technology , manufact ured according to high stan dards, to help guarantee trouble-free performance. Never theless, the display may have cosmetic imper fections that appear as small bright or dark spots. This is common to all LCD di splays used in products supplied by all vendors and is not specific to the HP LCD Monitor. These imperfections are caused by one or more defective pixels or subpixels. ■ A pixel consists of one red, on e green, and one blue subpixel. ■ A defective whole pixel is always turned on (a bright spot on a dark background), or it is always off (a dark spot on a bright background). The firs t is the more visible of the two. ■ A defective subpixel (dot defect) is less visible than a defective whole pixel, and is small and only visible on a specific background. T o locate defective pixels, the monitor should be viewed under normal operating conditions and in nor mal operating mode at a supported resolution and refresh rate, fr om a distance of approximately 50 cm (16 inches). W e expect that, over time, the industr y will continue to im prove its ability to produce displays with fewer cosmetic imperfections, and we will adjust gu idelines as improvements are made. For more information about your HP LCD Monitor , refer to the HP W eb site at: http://www .hp.com/suppor t Power Cord Set Requirements The monitor power supply is provided wi th Automatic Line Switching (ALS). This feature allows the monitor to operate on input voltages between 100–240V v , 50/60 Hz, 1.5A. The power cord set (flexible cord or wall plug) received with the monitor meets the requirements for use in the countr y/region where you purchased the equipment. If you need to obtain a power cord for a different countr y/region, you should purchase a power cord that is approved for use in that countr y/region. The power cord must be rated for the product and for the voltage and current marked on the product’ s electrical ratings label. The voltage and current rating of the cord sh ould be greater than the voltage and current rating marked on the product. If you have question s about the type of power cord to us e, contact your HP-authorized ser vice provider . A power cord should be routed so that it is not likely to be walked on or pinc hed by items placed upon it or against it. Particular attention should be paid to the plug, electrical outlet, and th e point where the cord exits from the product.
