Use of the Tilt-Swivel
This monitor can be adjusted within the angles shown
below. To find the center of the monitor’s turning radius,
align the center of the monitor’s screen with the centering
dots on the stand.
Hold the monitor at the bottom with both hands when you
turn it horizontally or vertically. Be careful not to pinch
your fingers at the back of the monitor when you tilt the
monitor up vertically.
Note
Do not remove the tilt-swivel base from the monitor.
Warning on power connection
• Use an appropriate power cord for your local power
supply.
Examples of plug types:
• Before disconnecting the power cord, wait at least 30
seconds after turning off the power to allow the static
electricity on the CRT display surface to discharge.
• After the power has been turned on, the CRT is
demagnetized (degaussed) for about 2 seconds. This
generates a strong magnetic field around the metal frame,
which may affect the data stored on magnetic tapes and
disks near the bezel. Place magnetic recording equipment,
tapes, and disks away from this monitor.
The equipment should be installed near an easily
accessible electrical outlet.
Precautions
Installation
• Prevent internal heat build-up by allowing adequate air
circulation. Do not place the monitor on surfaces (rugs,
blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that
may block the ventilation holes.
• Do not install the monitor near heat sources such as
radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or shock.
• Do not place the monitor near equipment which generates
magnetism, such as a transformer or high voltage power
lines.
Maintenance
• Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth
lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not
use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or
solvent, such as alcohol or benzine.
• Do not rub, touch, or tap the surface of the screen with
sharp or abrasive items such as a ballpoint pen or
screwdriver. This type of contact may result in a scratched
picture tube.
• Clean the screen with a soft cloth. If you use a glass
cleaning liquid, do not use any type of cleaner containing
an anti-static solution or similar additive as this may
scratch the screen’s coating.
Transportation
When you transport this monitor for repair or shipment, use
the original carton and packing materials.

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 2 inches (50mm)
ventilation space around the monitor.
Height
The monitor should be positioned 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. The
monitor should be positioned 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
You should sit back in the chair and use the backrest.
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 kind of
prolonged close work, can be visually demanding. Look
away from the screen periodically and have your eyesight
checked regularly.
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.
Selecting the Input Signal
You can connect two computers to this monitor using the
video input 1 (J1) and video input 2 (J2) connectors. To
select one of the two computers, use the input switch.
Move the input switch.
The selected connector appears on the screen for 3 seconds.
“INPUT 1” (video input 1 connector: J1) or “INPUT 2”
(video input 2 connector: J2) appears on the screen.
Note
If no signal is input to the selected connector, “NO INPUT
SIGNAL” appears on the screen. After a few seconds, the monitor
enters the power saving mode. If this happens, switch to the other
connector.
Automatically Sizing and
Centering the Picture
You can easily adjust the picture to fill the screen by
pressing the (auto sizing and centering) button.
Press the button.
The picture automatically fills the screen.
Notes
• This function is intended for use with a computer that provides
a full-screen picture. It may not work properly if the background
color is dark or if the input picture does not fill the screen to the
edges.
• Pictures with an aspect ratio of 5:4 (resolution: 1280 ×1024) are
displayed at their actual resolution and do not fill the
screen to the edges.
• The displayed image moves for a few seconds when the
button is pressed. This is not a malfunction.

Restoring the color from the EASY or sRGB menus
The colors of most display monitors tend to gradually lose
brilliance over several years of service. The COLOR
RETURN feature found in the EASY and sRGB menus

• Before using this feature, the monitor must be in normal
operation mode (green power indicator on) for at least 30
minutes. If the monitor goes into power saving mode, you must
return the monitor to normal operation mode and wait for 30
minutes for the monitor to be ready. You may need to adjust
your computer’s power saving settings to keep the monitor in
normal operation mode for the full 30 minutes. If the monitor is
not ready, the following message will appear.
• The monitor may gradually lose its ability to perform this
function due to the natural aging of the picture tube.
