NEVER REMOVE THE BACK COVER !
The back cover MUST be removed only by authorized service personnel. This display
monitor contains high voltage components.
BE CAREFUL OF STATIC ELECTRICITY ON CRT SURFACE !
To prevent electrical shock by the static electricity on the CRT surface, disconnect the
power cord at least 30 SECONDS AFTER turning off the power.
BE CAREFUL OF GENERATED MAGNETISM !
After the power has been turned on or “DEGAUSS” button has been pressed, the CRT is
demagnetized for approximately 10 seconds. This generates a strong magnetic field
around the bezel which may affect the data stored on magnetic tape or disks near the
bezel. Place such magnetic recording equipment and tapes/disks apart from this unit.
AVOID
DO NOT repeat OFF and ON in a short period. It may cause blurred colors or distortion of
the displayed pattern.
FREQUENT POWER ON-OFF SWITCHING !
REMOVE THE POWER CORD FOR COMPLETE SEPARATION !
For complete separation from the power source, remove the power cord from the
monitor or from the wall outlet.
AMBIENT ILLUMINATION !
Avoid direct rays of the sun or room lighting onto the CRT surface in order to prevent eye
fatigue.
ABOUT
This monitor has a non-glare and anti-electrostatic treatment on the CRT surface.
Use water or alcoholicsolvent with soft cloth like gauze to clean the
NEVER use abrasive, glass cleaner containing highly concentrated ammonia and strong
base chemicals since they damage the CRT surface treatment.
Clean the cabinet and controls with a lightly moistened soft cloth.
DO NOT use aerosol sprays, solvents or abrasive cleaners.

The following features are provided by the Hitachi Color Monitor
CM2096M.
Sharpest Focus and Highest Contrast
CRT with anti-glare, dynamic focus circuit, and dark glass, gives the sharpest focus and
highest contrast to minimize eye fatigue.
Wide-range
Automatic scanning and automatic adjustment to conform with a wide range of
scanning frequencies and user requirements.
Multi-Scanning
Digital Picture Control Function
Size, position, trapezoid, rotation and side pincushion are adjustable by digital
controls.
Geometry setting can be stored for different H/V frequencies.
Microprocessor-based preset functions can store 31 sets of geometry settings including
the standard factory settings.
Digital Color Control Function
Red, green and blue color balance is adjustable by digital control.
Adjusted color setting can be stored and recalled by the color select button.
Power Saving System
The Environmental Protection Agency
program by which manufacturers enable computer products to go into low power
states while not being used. This monitor has a low power
compliant with the EPA requirements for the “Energy Star” program, and will assist
you in conserving energy.
Please refer to the section of “Power Saving System” for details.

1. Installation
) Install the monitor on a horizontal base.
INSTALL THE UNIT IN ADEQUATE ENVIRONMENT !
DO NOT expose this monitor to rain or moisture to prevent electric shock or fire hazard.
This unit is designed to be used in an office or business environment.
DO NOTsubject the unit to vibrations, dust, or corrosive gases.
KEEP IN A WELL-VENTILATED PLACE !
DO NOT cover this monitor or place anything against any sides (not only top, right and
left side but also rear and bottom side) of unit. Ventilation holes are provided at all sides
of the back cover to prevent the temperature from rising.
KEEP
AWAY
AVOID placing the unit in direct sunshine or near a heating appliance.
FROM HEATING RADIATION OR SOURCE !
BE CAREFUL OF MAGNETIC FIELDS !
DO NOT place a magnet, loudspeaker system, floppy disk drive, printer, or anything which
will generate magnetism near the unit. A magnetic field may cause blurred colors or
distortion of the displayed pattern.

FOR THE CUSTOMERS IN U.K.
THIS PRODUCT IS SUPPLIED WITH A TWO PINMAINS PLUG FOR USE IN MAINLAND
EUROPE. FOR THE U.K. PLEASE REFER TO THE NOTES ON THIS PAGE.
NOTE:
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Your monitor requires an electrical supply of 240 volts - 50 hertz and should be protected
by a 5 amp fuse. Your equipment is supplied with a plug incorporating a 5 amp fuse fitted
to the mains lead. If the plug that is fitted to the equipment is not suitable for your socket
outlet, it must be cut off and an appropriate plug must be fitted. The cut off plug should
be disposed of, do not insert it into a 13 amp socket to prevent the hazard of electric
shocks. With plugs not incorporating a fuse, the circuit must be protected by 5 amp fuse.
WARNING: THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE EARTHED
IMPORTANT:
Your equipment is supplied with a mains lead, the wires of which are colored in
accordance with the following code: Green and Yellow - Earth, Blue - Neutral,
Brown - Live.

As the colors of the wires in your mains lead in this equipment may not correspond with
the markings identified with the terminals of your plug, proceed as follows:
The wires which are colored Green and Yellow must be connected to the terminal in the
plug which is marked with the letter E or
Green and Yellow.
The wire which is colored Brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter L or colored Red.
The wire which is colored Blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked N or
colored Black.
The plug moulded onto the cord incorporates a fuse. For replacement, use a 5 amp
BS1362 fuse. Only ASTA approved fuses should be used. The fuse cover/carrier must be
refitted when changing the fuse. In the event of losing the fuse cover/carrier, the plug
must not be used until a replacement has been obtained from your nearest electrical
stockist
