Noticeforthismonitor
Notice for this monitor
Aside from general purposes like creating documents, viewing multimedia content, this product is also suited to
applications such as creations of images and graphics, and digital photo processing, where accurate color reproduction
is a priority.
This product has been adjusted specically for use in the region to which it was originally shipped. If the product is
used outside the region, it may not operate as specied in the specications.
This product may not be covered by warranty for uses other than those described in this manual.
The specications noted in this manual are only applicable when the following are used:
· Power cords provided with the product
· Signal cables specied by us
Only use optional products manufactured or specied by us with this product.
As it takes about 7 minutes (under our measurement conditions) for the performance of electrical parts to stabilize,
adjust the monitor 7 minutes or more after the monitor power has been turned on.
Monitors should be set to a lower brightness to reduce changes in luminosity caused by long-term use and maintain a
stable display.
When the screen image is changed after displaying the same image for extended periods of time, an afterimage may
appear. Use the screen saver or power save function to avoid displaying the same image for extended periods of time.
Periodic cleaning is recommended to keep the monitor looking new and to prolong its operation lifetime (refer to
“Cleaning” (page 4)).
The LCD panel is manufactured using high-precision technology. Although, missing pixels or lit pixels may appear on
the LCD panel, this is not a malfunction. Percentage of effective dots: 99.9994% or higher.
The backlight of the LCD panel has a xed lifetime. When the screen becomes dark or begins to icker, please contact
your local EIZO representative.
Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this may result in display malfunctions, such as interference
patterns, etc. If pressure is continually applied to the panel, it may deteriorate or damage your panel. (If the pressure
marks remain on the panel, leave the monitor with a black or white screen. The symptom may disappear.)
Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects, as this may result in damage to the panel. Do not attempt
to brush with tissues as this may scratch the panel.
When the monitor is cold and brought into a room or the room temperature goes up quickly, dew condensation may
occur on the interior and exterior surfaces of the monitor. In that case, do not turn the monitor on. Instead wait until
the dew condensation disappears, otherwise it may cause some damage to the monitor.

4Noticeforthismonitor
Cleaning
Attention
• Chemicals such as alcohol and antiseptic solution may cause gloss variation, tarnishing, and fading of the cabinet or panel,
and also quality deterioration of the image.
• Never use any thinner, benzene, wax, and abrasive cleaner, which may damage the cabinet or panel.
Note
• The optional ScreenCleaner is recommended for cleaning the cabinet and panel surface.
If necessary, the stains on the cabinet and panel surface can be removed by moistening part of a soft cloth with
water.
To use the monitor comfortably
• An excessively dark or bright screen may affect your eyes. Adjust the brightness of the monitor according to
the environmental conditions.
• Staring at the monitor for a long time tires your eyes. Take a 10-minute rest every hour.

“Chapter 3 Auto FineContrast” in the “ScreenManager Pro for LCD” User’s Manual).

18 Chapter2AdjustingScreens
●To perform advanced adjustments
“Color” of the Adjustment menu allows you to congure and save a separate set of color settings for each
mode.
Attention
• As it takes about 7 minutes (under our measurement conditions) for the performance of electrical parts to stabilize,
adjust the monitor 7 minutes or more after the monitor power has been turned on.
• Perform the range adjustment rst when adjusting color for analog signals (see “To adjust color gradation automatically”
(page 27)).
• The same image may be seen in different colors on multiple monitors due to their monitor-specic characteristics. Make
ne color adjustment visually when matching colors on multiple monitors.
Note
• The values shown in “%” or “K” are available only as reference.
• Using the “ScreenManager Pro for LCD” allows you to perform the color adjustment by using the mouse and
keyboard of your PC. The adjusted conditions can be stored as the color data to be read in later. (See “Chapter 4 Color
Adjustment” in the User’s Manual for “ScreenManager Pro for LCD”.)
●Adjustable settings in each mode
The adjustable settings depend on the mode. (You cannot select any non-adjustable or non-settable function.)
The adjustments or settings made for each mode are applied to all input signals.
