2 Setting Up and Using the Monitor

To set up the monitor, ensure that the power is turned off to the monitor, computer system, and other attached devices, then follow the instructions below.

NOTE: Be sure the master power switch, located on the rear panel of the monitor, is in the off

position. The master power switch turns off all power to the monitor.

Installing the Stand

CAUTION: Do not touch the surface of the LCD panel. Pressure on the panel may cause non-

uniformity of color or disorientation of the liquid crystals. If this occurs the screen will not recover to its normal condition.

The displays use the HP Quick Release 2 for easy moving of the monitor. To mount the panel onto the stand:

1. Lay the monitor panel face down on a flat surface covered by a clean, dry cloth.

2. Slide the top of the mounting plate (1) on the stand under the upper lip of the recess in the back

of the panel.

3. Lower the bottom of the stand's mounting plate (2) into the recess until it snaps into place.

4. The HP Quick Release 2 latch (3) pops up when the stand is locked in place.
