Important Safety Instructions

WARNING

Working in

Comfort

For your safety always connect equipment to a grounded wall outlet. Always use a power cord with a properly grounded plug, such as the one provided with the equipment, or one in compliance with your national safety standards. This equipment can be disconnected from the power by removing the power cord from the power outlet. This means the equipment must be located close to an easily accessible power outlet.

To avoid electrical shock, do not open the monitor's cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Only qualified service personnel should service these parts.

Make sure your PC is powered off before connecting or disconnecting a display peripheral.

Thank you for selecting HP monitor equipment.

To optimize your comfort and productivity, it's important that you set up your work area correctly and use your HP equipment properly. With that in mind, we have developed some setup and use recommendations for you to follow based on established ergonomic principles.

You can consult the online version of Working in Comfort preloaded on the hard disk of HP computers, or visit HP's Working in Comfort web site at:

CAUTION The monitor is quite heavy (the weight is shown in the technical specifications). We recommend you ask the assistance of a second person when lifting or moving it.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, situated within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" which may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock.

!The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and servicing instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
