OSD menu is closed. Holding down the power button or Menu button for 10 seconds disables that button. You
can re-enable the button by holding it down again for 10 seconds.
Using the auto-adjustment function (analog input)
The auto-adjustment feature automatically engages and attempts to optimize your screen under several
conditions.
● Monitor setup
● Factory reset of the computer
● Changing monitor resolution
You can manually optimize the screen performance for the VGA (analog) input at any time from the Auto
Adjustment menu in the OSD. You can download the auto-adjustment pattern software utility from
http://www.hp.com/support.
Do not use this procedure if the monitor is using an input other than VGA. If the monitor is using a VGA
(analog) input, this procedure can correct the following image quality conditions:
● Fuzzy or unclear focus
● Ghosting, streaking, or shadowing eects
● Faint vertical bars
● Thin, horizontal scrolling lines
● An o-center picture
To use the auto-adjustment feature:
1. Turn the monitor on, and then wait for 20 minutes before adjusting.
2. Press the Menu button to open the OSD menu, select Image, and then select Auto Adjustment. If the
result is not satisfactory, continue with the procedure.
3. Open the auto-adjustment utility. (You can download this utility from http://www.hp.com/support.) The
setup test pattern is displayed.
4. Press the esc key or any other key on the keyboard to exit the test pattern.
20 Chapter 3 Support and troubleshooting
Page 29
Optimizing image performance (analog input)
If you would like to customize your settings, this section describes how to manually optimize your monitor's
image.
You can adjust two controls in the on-screen display to improve image performance: Clock and Phase
(available in the OSD menu). Use these controls only when the auto-adjustment function does not provide a
satisfactory image.
NOTE: You can adjust the Clock and Phase controls only when you use an analog (VGA) input. These controls
are not adjustable for digital inputs.
The Clock must rst be set correctly because the Phase settings are dependent on the main Clock setting.
● Clock—Increases or decreases the value to minimize any vertical bars or stripes visible on the screen
background.
● Phase—Increases or decreases the value to minimize video ickering or blurring.
NOTE: When you use the controls, you will obtain the best results by using the auto-adjustment pattern
software utility. You can download this utility from http://www.hp.com/support.
When adjusting the Clock and Phase values, if the monitor images become distorted, continue adjusting the
values until the distortion disappears. To restore the factory settings, press the Menu button to open the OSD
menu, then select Management, select Factory Reset, and select Yes.
To eliminate vertical bars (Clock):
1. Press the Menu button to open the OSD menu, select Image, and then select Clock and Phase.
2. Select Clock, and then use the OSD buttons on the monitor that display up and down arrow icons to
eliminate vertical bars. Press the buttons slowly so that you do not miss the optimum adjustment point.
3. After adjusting the Clock, if ickering, blurring, or bars appear on the screen, proceed to adjust the
Phase.
To remove ickering or blurring (Phase):
1. Press the Menu button to open the OSD menu, select Image, and then select Clock and Phase.
2. Select Phase, and then use the OSD buttons on the monitor that display up and down arrow icons to
eliminate ickering or blurring. Flickering or blurring might not be eliminated, depending on the
computer or graphics controller card installed.
To correct screen position (Horizontal Position or Vertical Position):
1. Press the Menu button to open the OSD menu, select Image, and then select Image Position.
Optimizing image performance (analog input) 21
Page 30
2. Press the OSD buttons on the monitor that display up and down arrow icons to properly adjust the
position of the image in the display area of the monitor. The Horizontal Position shifts the image left or
right; the Vertical Position shifts the image up or down.

4 Maintaining the monitor
Properly maintained, your monitor can run for many years. These instructions provide steps you can perform
to keep your monitor in the best condition.
Maintenance guidelines
Follow these instructions to enhance the performance and extend the life of the monitor.
● Do not open the monitor cabinet or attempt to service this product yourself. Adjust only those controls
that are covered in the operating instructions. If the monitor is not operating properly or has been
dropped or damaged, contact an authorized HP dealer, reseller, or service provider.
● Use only a power source and connection appropriate for this monitor, as indicated on the label or back
plate of the monitor.
● Be sure that the total ampere rating of the products connected to the outlet does not exceed the current
rating of the AC outlet and that the total ampere rating of the products connected to the cord does not
exceed the rating of the cord. Look on the power label to determine the ampere rating (AMPS or A) for
each device.
● Install the monitor near an outlet that you can easily reach. Disconnect the monitor by grasping the plug
rmly and pulling it from the outlet. Never disconnect the monitor by pulling the cord.
● Turn the monitor o when it is not in use, and use a screen saver program. Doing this can substantially
increase the life expectancy of the monitor.
NOTE: A burned-in image on the monitor is not covered under the HP warranty.
● Never block the slots and openings of the cabinet or push objects into them. These openings provide
ventilation.
● Do not drop the monitor or place it on an unstable surface.
● Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not walk on the cord.
● Keep the monitor in a well-ventilated area, away from excessive light, heat, or moisture.
Cleaning the monitor
Use these instructions to clean your monitor when necessary.
1. Turn o the monitor and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.
2. Disconnect any external devices.
3. Dust the monitor by wiping the screen and the cabinet with a soft, clean antistatic cloth.
4. For more diicult cleaning situations, use a 50/50 mix of water and isopropyl alcohol.
IMPORTANT: Do not use cleaners that contain petroleum-based materials such as benzene, thinner, or
any volatile substance to clean the monitor screen or cabinet. These chemicals might damage the
monitor.
Maintenance guidelines 23
Page 32
IMPORTANT: Spray the cleaner onto a cloth and use the damp cloth to gently wipe the screen surface.
Never spray the cleaner directly on the screen surface. It can run behind the bezel and damage the
electronics. The cloth should be moist, but not wet. Water dripping into the ventilation openings or other
points of entry can cause damage to the monitor. Allow the monitor to air-dry before use.
5. After you remove the dirt and debris, you can also clean the surfaces with a disinfectant. The World
Health Organization (WHO) recommends cleaning surfaces, followed by disinfection, as a best practice
for preventing the spread of viral respiratory illnesses and harmful bacteria. A disinfectant that is within
HP’s cleaning guidelines is an alcohol solution consisting of 70% isopropyl alcohol and 30% water. This
solution is also known as rubbing alcohol and is sold in most stores.
Shipping the monitor
Keep the original packing box in a storage area. You might need it later if you ship the monitor or move.

Energy saver feature
This monitor supports a reduced power state.
The reduced power state is initiated if the monitor detects the absence of either the horizontal sync signal or
the vertical sync signal. Upon detecting the absence of these signals, the monitor screen is blank, the
backlight is turned o, and the power light turns amber. In the reduced power state, the monitor uses < 0.5 W
of power. There is a brief warm-up period before the monitor returns to its normal operating state.
See the computer manual for instructions on setting the energy saver mode (sometimes called “power
management feature”).
NOTE: This power saver feature works only when the monitor is connected to a computer that has energy-
saver features.
By selecting the settings in the monitor Sleep Timer utility, you can also program the monitor to initiate the
reduced power state at a predetermined time. When the monitor Sleep Timer utility initiates the reduced
power state, the power light blinks amber.

Finding the best assistive technology
Everyone, including people with disabilities or age-related limitations, should be able to communicate,
express themselves, and connect with the world using technology. HP is committed to increasing accessibility
awareness within HP and with our customers and partners.
Whether it’s large fonts that are easy on the eyes, voice recognition that lets you give your hands a rest, or
any other assistive technology to help with your specic situation—a variety of assistive technologies make
HP products easier to use. How do you choose?
Assessing your needs
Technology can unleash your potential. Assistive technology removes barriers and helps you create
independence at home, at work, and in the community. Assistive technology (AT) helps increase, maintain,
and improve the functional capabilities of electronic and information technology.
You can choose from many AT products. Your AT assessment should allow you to evaluate several products,
answer your questions, and facilitate your selection of the best solution for your situation. You will nd that
professionals qualied to do AT assessments come from many elds, including those licensed or certied in
physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech/language pathology, and other areas of expertise. Others,
while not certied or licensed, can also provide evaluation information. You will want to ask about the
individual's experience, expertise, and fees to determine if they are appropriate for your needs.

Standards and legislation
Countries worldwide are enacting regulations to improve access to products and services for persons with
disabilities. These regulations are historically applicable to telecommunications products and services, PCs
and printers with certain communications and video playback features, their associated user documentation,
and their customer support.
Standards
The US Access Board created Section 508 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) standards to address
access to information and communication technology (ICT) for people with physical, sensory, or cognitive
disabilities.
The standards contain technical criteria specic to various types of technologies, as well as performancebased requirements which focus on functional capabilities of covered products. Specic criteria cover
software applications and operating systems, web-based information and applications, computers,
telecommunications products, video and multimedia, and self-contained closed products.
Mandate 376 – EN 301 549
The European Union created the EN 301 549 standard within Mandate 376 as an online toolkit for public
procurement of ICT products. The standard species the accessibility requirements applicable to ICT products
and services, with a description of the test procedures and evaluation methodology for each requirement.
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) from the W3C's Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) helps web
designers and developers create sites that better meet the needs of people with disabilities or age-related
limitations.
WCAG advances accessibility across the full range of web content (text, images, audio, and video) and web
applications. WCAG can be precisely tested, is easy to understand and use, and allows web developers
exibility for innovation. WCAG 2.0 has also been approved as ISO/IEC 40500:2012.
WCAG specically addresses barriers to accessing the web experienced by people with visual, auditory,
physical, cognitive, and neurological disabilities, and by older web users with accessibility needs. WCAG 2.0
provides characteristics of accessible content:
● Perceivable (for instance, by addressing text alternatives for images, captions for audio, adaptability of
presentation, and color contrast)
● Operable (by addressing keyboard access, color contrast, timing of input, seizure avoidance, and
navigability)
● Understandable (by addressing readability, predictability, and input assistance)
● Robust (for instance, by addressing compatibility with assistive technologies)
