FOR YOUR SAFETY

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

STOP OPERATING THE MONITOR WHEN YOU SENSE TROUBLE

If you notice any abnormal phenomena such as smoke, strange sounds or fumes, unplug the monitor and contact your dealer or iiyama service center immediately. Further use may be dangerous and can cause fire or electric shock.

NEVER REMOVE THE CABINET

High voltage circuits are inside the monitor. Removing the cabinet may expose you to the danger of fire or electric shock.

DO NOT PUT ANY OBJECT INTO THE MONITOR

Do not put any solid objects or liquids such as water into the monitor. In case of an accident, unplug your monitor immediately and contact your dealer or iiyama service center. Using the monitor with any object inside may cause fire, electric shock or damage.

INSTALL THE MONITOR ON A FLAT, STABLE SURFACE

The monitor may cause an injury if it falls or is dropped.

DO NOT USE THE MONITOR NEAR WATER

Do not use where water may be splashed or spilt onto the monitor as it may cause fire or electric shock.

OPERATE UNDER THE SPECIFIED POWER SUPPLY

Be sure to operate the monitor only with the specified power supply. Use of an incorrect voltage will cause malfunction and may cause fire or electric shock.

PROTECT THE CABLES

Do not pull or bend the power cable and signal cable. Do not place the monitor or any other heavy objects on the cables. If damaged, the cables may cause fire or electric shock.

ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS

It is advisable not to operate the monitor during a heavy thunder storm as the continual breaks in power may cause malfunction. It is also advised not to touch the plug in these circumstances as it may cause electric shock.

CAUTION

INSTALLATION LOCATION

Do not install the monitor where sudden temperature changes may occur, or in humid, dusty or smoky areas as it may cause fire, electric shock or damage. You should also avoid areas where the sun shines directly on the monitor.

DO NOT PLACE THE MONITOR IN A HAZARDOUS POSITION

The monitor may topple and cause injury if not suitably located. Please also ensure that you do not place any heavy objects on the monitor, and that all cables are routed such that children may not pull the cables and possibly cause injury.

MAINTAIN GOOD VENTILATION

Ventilation slots are provided to keep the monitor from overheating. Covering the slots may cause fire. To allow adequate air circulation, place the monitor at least 10 cm (or 4 inches) from any walls. Ventilation slots on the back of the cabinet will be blocked and the monitor may overheat if the stand is removed. This may cause fire or damage. Operating the monitor on its back, side, upside down or on a carpet or any other soft material may also cause damage.

DISCONNECT THE CABLES WHEN YOU MOVE THE MONITOR

When you move the monitor, turn off the power switch, unplug the monitor and be sure the signal cable is disconnected. If you do not disconnect them, it may cause fire or electric shock. It is recommended that two people are used when moving the monitor.

UNPLUG THE MONITOR

If the monitor is not in use for a long period of time it is recommended that it is left unplugged to avoid accidents.

HOLD THE PLUG WHEN DISCONNECTING

To disconnect the power cable or signal cable, always pull it by the plug. Never pull on the cable itself as this may cause fire or electric shock.

DO NOT TOUCH THE PLUG WITH WET HANDS

Pulling or inserting the plug with wet hands may cause electric shock.

OTHERS

ERGONOMIC RECOMMENDATIONS

To eliminate eye fatigue, do not operate the monitor against a bright background or in a dark room. When using the monitor over a prolonged time, a ten minute break every hour is recommended as looking at the screen continuously can cause eye strain.

FOR YOUR SAFETY 1

SPECIAL NOTES ON LCD MONITORS

The following symptoms are normal with LCD monitors and do not indicate a problem.

NOTE

WARNING

When you first turn on the LCD monitor, the picture may not fit in the display area because of the type of computer that is

used. In this case, adjust the picture position to its correct position. Due to the nature of the backlight, the screen may flicker during initial use. Turn off the Power Switch and then turn it on

again to make sure the flicker disappears. You may find slightly uneven brightness on the screen depending on the desktop pattern you use.

Due to the nature of the LCD screen, an afterimage of the previous screen may remain after switching the image, when the same image is displayed for hours. In this case, the screen is recovered slowly by changing the image or turning off the Power Switch for hours.

Contact your dealer or iiyama service center for the backlight replacement when the screen is dark, flickering or not lighting up.

The fluorescent light used in the LCD monitor may have to be periodically replaced. For the warranty coverage on this component, please check with local iiyama service center.

If you have to return your unit for service and the original packaging has been discarded, please contact your dealer or

iiyama service center for advice or replacement packaging.

OPERATING THE MONITOR 11

SCREEN ADJUSTMENTS

Adjust the image by following the procedure below to get the desired picture when selecting Analog input.

n The screen adjustments described in this manual are designed to set image position and minimize flicker or blur for the particular computer

in use.

n The monitor is designed to provide the best performance at resolution of 1280 × 768, but can not provide the best at resolutions of less than

1280 × 768 because the picture is automatically stretched to fit the full screen. It is recommended to operate at a resolution of 1280 × 768 in normal use.

n Displayed text or lines will be blurred or irregular in thickness when the picture is stretched due to the screen enlargement process. n It is preferable to adjust the image position and frequency with the monitor controls, rather than with computer software or utilities. n Perform adjustments after a warm-up period of at least thirty minutes. n Additional adjustments may be required after the Auto Set-up depending on the resolution or signal timing. n The Auto Set-up may not work correctly when displaying the picture other than the screen adjustment pattern. In this case, manual

adjustments are required.

There are two ways to adjust the screen. One way is automatic adjustment for Clock, Phase and Position. The other way is performing each adjustment manually. Perform the Auto Set-up first when the monitor is connected to a new computer, or resolution is changed. If the screen has a flicker or blur, or the picture does not fit in the display area after performing the Auto Set-up, manual adjustments are required. Both adjustments should be made by using the screen adjustment pattern (Test.bmp) obtained via the iiyama web site (http://www.iiyama.com or http:// www.iiyama.co.uk).

This manual explains adjustment under Windows 95/98/2000/Me/XP.

Set the Full Screen feature to Off and display the picture at the optimum resolution.

Enter the Test.bmp (screen adjustment pattern) to wallpaper.

NOTE n Consult the appropriate documentation for doing this.

n Test.bmp is made at resolution of 1280 × 1024. Set the display position to center in the wallpaper setting dialogue box. If you

use Microsoft® PLUS! 95/98 cancel the setting of “Stretch desktop wallpaper to fit the screen”.

Adjust the image manually by following procedure below when the screen has a flicker or blur, or the picture does not fit

in the display area after performing the Auto Set-up.

Adjust the V-Position so that the top and bottom of the picture frame will fit to the display area.

1) Adjust the H-Position so that the left side of the picture frame will move to the left edge of the display area.

12 OPERATING THE MONITOR

2) Stretch the right side of the picture frame to the right edge of the display area by adjusting the Clock.

NOTE n When the left side of the picture frame moves apart from the left edge of the display area during the Clock adjustment, adjust

steps 1) and 2).

n Another way to make the Clock adjustment is to correct the vertical wavy lines in the zebra pattern. n The picture may flicker during the Clock, H-Position and V-Position adjustment. n In case the picture frame is bigger or smaller than the data display area after the Clock adjustment, repeat steps from C.

Adjust the Phase to correct horizontal wavy noise, flicker or blur in the zebra pattern.

NOTE n In case the strong flicker or blurs remain on a part of the screen, repeat steps F and G because the Clock may not be

adjusted correctly. If the flicker or blurs still remain, set the refresh rate of computer to low (60Hz) and repeat steps from

again.

n Adjust the H-Position after the Phase adjustment if the horizontal position moves during the adjustment.

Adjust the Brightness and Color Temp. to get the desired picture after you complete the Clock and Phase adjustments.
