Notice for this monitor
Aside from general purposes like creating documents, viewing multimedia content, this product is also suited to
applications such as graphics creation and digital photo processing, where accurate color reproduction is a priority.
This product has been adjusted specically for use in the region to which it was originally shipped. If the product is

It takes about 30 minutes for the performance of electrical parts to stabilize. Please wait 30 minutes or more after the
monitor power has been turned on, and then adjust the monitor.
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.
If the monitor displays continuously over a long period of time, dark smudges or burn-in may appear. To maximize the
life of the monitor, we recommend the monitor be turned off periodically.
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.

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
