Recommendation for Optimum Performance
hen setting up and using the monitor, pay special attention to the following
W
for optimum performance:
• Do not use your monitor against a bright background or where
Ex950F User’s Manual
sunlight or other light sources will shine directly on the screen.
• The monitor should be placed just below eye level (10°~15° ) for
optimum viewing.
• Set the monitor's brightness to match the ambient room light.
• For optimum focus, the contrast control should not be set to the
maximum level unless the input signal level is extremely low. Also, the
brightness control should be set to a point where the overall
background area just begins to disappear.
• Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor so that the heat from
the monitor can properly dissipate.
• Neither the monitor itself, nor any other heavy objects, should rest on
the power cord. Damage to the power cord can cause fire or electrical
shock.
• Keep the monitor away from high-capacity transformers, electrical
motors, or other strong magnetic fields.
• Your monitor should not be used in damp, dusty, or dirty areas.
• Handle your monitor with care when transporting it.
CAUTION
• Do not scrap or knock the surface of CRT with a pen, a screwdriver
and so on.
• Clean the CRT surface with a lint-free, nonabrasive, soft cloth, and
should not use the solution or glass cleaner containing corpuscles like
an abrasive, alcohol and an alkaline solution.

Energy Declaration
T
his monitor is equipped with a function for saving energy which supports the
VESA Display Power Management Signaling (DPMS) standard. This means
that the monitor must be connected to a computer which also supports the
VESA DPMS standard to fulfill the requirements of the NUTEK specification
803299/94/96. The time settings for switching to a power saving mode are
adjusted from the system unit by software. From the first indication of inactivity
to power saving position A2 the total time must not be set to more than 70
