Important safety information
A power cord is included with the monitor. If you use another cord, use only a power source and connection
appropriate for this monitor. For information about the correct power cord set to use with the monitor, refer
Product Notices provided in your documentation kit.
to the
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock:
• Plug the power cord into an AC outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
• If the power cord has a 3-pin attachment plug, plug the cord into a grounded (earthed) 3-pin outlet.
For your safety, do not place anything on power cords or cables. Care should be taken to route all cords and
cables connected to the monitor so that they cannot be stepped on, pulled, grabbed, or tripped over.
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the Safety & Comfort Guide provided with your user guides. It
describes proper workstation setup and proper posture, health, and work habits for computer users. The
Safety & Comfort Guide also provides important electrical and mechanical safety information. The Safety &
Comfort Guide is also available on the Web at http://www.hp.com/ergo.
IMPORTANT: For the protection of the monitor and the computer, connect all power cords for the computer
and its peripheral devices (such as a monitor, printer, scanner) to a surge protection device such as a power
strip or uninterruptible power supply (UPS). Not all power strips provide surge protection; the power strip
must be specically labeled as having this capability. Use a power strip whose manufacturer oers a damage
replacement policy so that you can replace the equipment if surge protection fails.
Use the appropriate and correctly sized furniture designed to properly support your monitor.
WARNING! Monitors that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers,
chests, or carts may fall over and cause personal injury.
NOTE: This product is suitable for entertainment purposes. Consider placing the monitor in a controlled
luminous environment to avoid interference from surrounding light and bright surfaces that may cause
disturbing reections from the screen.

party mounting solution to the monitor head, four 4 mm, 0.7 pitch, and 10 mm long screws are required.
Avoid longer screws because they can damage the monitor head. Be sure to verify that the manufacturer’s
mounting solution is compliant with the VESA standard and is rated to support the weight of the monitor
head. For best performance, use the power and video cables provided with the monitor.
