Notes on ergonomic colour adjustment
If you select colours for the display in your application programmes, take note of the information below.
The primary colours blue and red on a dark background do not produce the minimum required contrast of 3:1 and are therefore not suitable for continuous text and data entry.
When using several colours for characters and background and giving the primary colours full modulation, you can obtain very suitable colour combinations (see the following table):
Background Characters
black white purple blue cyan green yellow red
black + + - + + + -
white + + + - - - +
purple + + - - - - -
blue - + - + - + -
cyan + - - + - - -
green + - - + - - -
yellow + - + + - - +
red - + - - - - +
+ Colour combination very suitable
- Colour combination not suitable because colour locations are too close together, thin
characters are not identifiable or rigorous focusing is demanded of the human eye.

Trouble shooting
Should an error occur, first check the following points. If the distortion is still not eliminated, the monitor should, if possible, be checked on another PC and/or with another data cable.
If you cannot solve the problem, contact our customer service centre.
The display is too small or not centred
The monitor recognises an undefined mode (see "Technical data").
Ê Adjust the position and the size of the display and save your settings (see "Operation of the
monitor").
No display (power indicator does not light)
Ê Check whether the monitor is switched on. Ê Check whether the power cable is connected properly to the power adapter and to the system
unit and whether the power adapter cable is connected properly to the monitor.
Ê Check whether the mains socket is live.

Ê Check whether the system unit is switched on. Ê Check whether the data cable for the monitor is correctly attached to the monitor and the
monitor port on the system unit.
Ê Press any key on the PC keyboard - the PC may be in energy saving mode. Ê Alter the brightness and/or contrast until you get a picture.
Picture disturbances (vertical and horizontal lines, picture noise)
Ê First in the Image Lock setting window, set the Coarse function to remove any vertical bars. Ê Then set the Fine function in the Image Lock setting window to eliminate the picture noise or the
horizontal lines.

If one of the operating systems Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95/98, Windows NT or OS/2 (with Windows emulation installed) is used, the monitor can be adjusted with the floppy disk supplied.
Permanently unlit or lit pixels
The standard of production techniques today cannot guarantee an absolutely fault-free screen display. A few isolated constant lit or unlit pixels may be present. The maximum permitted number of pixels faults is stipulated in the stringent international standard ISO 13406-2 (Class II).
Example: a 17" flat-screen monitor with a resolution of 1024 x 1280 has 1024 x 1280 = 1310720 pixels. Each pixel consists of three subpixels (red, green and blue), so there are about 4 million dots in total. According to ISO 13406-2 (Class II), a maximum of 6 pixels and 7 subpixels may be defective, i. e. a total of 25 faulted dots. This corresponds to approx. 0,00062 % of the entire screen surface!
The flat screen monitors from Fujitsu Siemens Computers are typically considerably better than requirements defined in this standard.
The screen becomes darker
The background lighting has a limited lifetime. If your monitor display should become too dark, the background lighting will have to be exchanged. Please contact our customer service centre.

Congratulations
You have just purchased a TCO'99 approved and labelled product! Your choice has provided you with a product developed for professional use. Your purchase has also contributed to reducing the burden on the environment and also to the further development of environmentally adapted electronics products.
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are used both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most of these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the work (internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of electricity generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy. Electronics equipment in offices is often left running continuously and thereby consumes a lot of energy.
What does labelling involve?
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides for international and environmental labelling of personal computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy Administration).
Approval requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, emission of electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical and fire safety.
The environmental demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental policy which must be adhered to in each country where the company implements its operational policy.
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The length of time to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.
Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in respect of the reduction of electric and magnetic fields, physical and visual ergonomics and good usability.

Environmental requirements
Flame retardants
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. Their purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride, and those flame retardants are chemically related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants containing bromine or chloride and the PCBs are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals, due to the bio-accumulative
1)
processes. Flame retardants have been found in human
blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may occur. The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than 25 grams must
not contain flame retardants with organically bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit boards since no substitutes are available.
Cadmium
2)
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries, the colour-generating layers of display screens and the electrical or electronics components must not contain any cadmium.
Mercury
2)
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any mercury. It also demands that mercury is not present in any of the electrical or electronics components associated with the labelled unit.
CFCs (freons)
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufacture and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) as a consequence.
Lead
2)
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead poisoning. The relevant TCO´99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.
1)
Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms.
2)
Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.
