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 fi re or electric
shock.
OPERATE UNDER THE SPECIFIED POWER SUPPLY
Be sure to operate the monitor only with the specifi ed power supply. Use of an incorrect voltage will
cause malfunction and may cause fi re or electric shock.
ENGLISH
PROTECT THE CABLES

objects on the cables. If damaged, the cables may cause fi re 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.
FOR YOUR SAFETY 1
CAUTION

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
ENGLISH
fi re. To allow adequate air circulation, place the monitor at least 10 cm (or 4 inches) from any walls.
Do not remove the tilt stand when operating the monitor. Ventilation slots on the back of the
cabinet will be blocked and the monitor may overheat if the stand is removed. This may cause fi re
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 fi re or electric shock.

OPERATING THE MONITOR 21
SCREEN ADJUSTMENTS
Adjust the image by following the procedure below to get the desired picture when selecting Analog input.
The screen adjustments described in this manual are designed to set image position and minimize
fl icker or blur for the particular computer in use.
The monitor is designed to provide the best performance at resolution of 1920 × 1080, but can not
provide the best at resolutions of less than 1920 × 1080 because the picture is automatically stretched
to fi t the full screen. It is recommended to operate at resolution of 1920 × 1080 in normal use.
Displayed text or lines will be blurred or irregular in thickness when the picture is stretched due to
the screen enlargement process.
It is preferable to adjust the image position and frequency with the monitor controls, rather than
the computer software or utilities.
ENGLISH
Perform adjustments after a warm-up period of at least thirty minutes.
Additional adjustments may be required after the Auto Image Adjust depending on the resolution
or signal timing.
The Auto Image Adjust 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 Position, Clock and
Phase. The other way is performing each adjustment manually.
Perform the Auto Image Adjust fi rst when the monitor is connected to a new computer, or resolution
is changed. If the screen has a fl icker or blur, or the picture does not fi t in the display area after
performing the Auto Image Adjust, 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).
Adjust the image by following the procedure below to get the desired picture.

NOTE
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).
Another way to make the Clock adjustment is to correct the vertical wavy lines in the
zebra pattern.

and VESA DPMS. When activated, it automatically reduces unnecessary power consumption
of the monitor when your computer is not in use.
To use the feature, the monitor needs to be connected to a VESA DPMS compliant computer.
There is a power management step the monitor takes as described below. The power management
function, including any timer settings is confi gured by the operating system. Check your operating
system manual for information on how this can be confi gured.
Power Management Mode
When the H-sync signal / V-sync signal / H and V sync signals from the computer are off, the
monitor enters into Power Management Mode which reduces the power consumption to less
than 0.5W. The screen becomes dark, and the power indicator turns to orange. From Power
Management Mode, the image reappears in several seconds when either the keyboard or the
mouse are touched again.
NOTE
Even when using the power management mode, the monitor consumes electricity. Turn
off the Power Switch whenever the monitor is not in use, during the night and weekends,
to avoid unnecessary power consumption.
It is possible that the video signal from the computer may be on while the H or V sync
signal is missing. In this instance, the POWER MANAGEMENT feature may not work
properly.
