PRECAUTIONS

• Do not use the monitor near water, e.g. near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry

tub, swimming pool or in a wet basement.

•

Do not place the monitor on an unstable cart, stand, or table. If the monitor falls, it can

injure a person and cause serious damage to the appliance. Use only a cart or stand

recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the monitor. If you mount the monitor

on a wall or shelf, use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturer and follow the kit

instructions.

• Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To

ensure reliable operation of the monitor and to protect it from overheating, be sure these

openings are not blocked or covered. Do not place the monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, or

similar surface. Do not place the monitor near or over a radiator or heat register. Do not

place the monitor in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.

• The monitor should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the

label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your dealer

correct outlet, or use an adapter to ground the appliance safely. Do not defeat the safety

purpose of the grounded plug.

• Unplug the unit during a lightning storm or when it will not be used for long periods of time.

This will protect the monitor from damage due to power surges.

DCB Adjustment

What is DCB?

Dynamic Color Boost (DCB) is an advanced color adjustment technology. Through analyzing RGB
signals, DCB creates more vivid and natural images to suit various color environment needs. DCB

has two types of color enhancers: “Color Boost” and “Picture Boost” .

DCC: Dynamic color control
ICM: Intelligent color management

9

1) How to use Color Boost?

Five color-enhancement settings: To accommodate various display needs, Color Boost also

offers 5 different color enhancement modes: Full Enhance, Natural Skin, Green Field, Sky Blue,
and Auto-Detect. Please go to the fourth icon labeled “Color Boost” in the OSD menu and select

one of the ve settings you desire to be turned on.

Full Enhance: When “Full Enhance” is turned on, the color saturation of the entire screen is fully
enriched, thus all colors become more vibrant.

10

Nature Skin: When “Natural Skin” is turned on, the red and yellow colors are enriched automatically,

thus presents human skin with more natural and truer colors. “Natural Skin” setting is ideal for
viewing human portrait and detailed skin texture.

Green Field: When “Green Field” is turned on, the green color is enriched so that football eld and

mountain landscape would look more natural and fresh. “Green Field” setting is ideal for watching
mountain scenery and outdoor sports.

11

Sky Blue: When”Sky Blue” is turned on, the color blue is being ne-tuned so that the sky or ocean

landscape will look more vivid and in-depth. “Sky Blue” setting is ideal for viewing sky and ocean
images.

Auto Detect: When “Auto Detect” is turned on, every pigment will be detected and self-adjusted
to render a lively picture.

Demo: Screen divided into two for demonstration purposes.

12

2) How to use Picture Boost?

Users can change the color settings of a self-selected zone on the screen. The size and position of

the selected zone can also be adjusted. “Picture Boost” is located in the fth icon labeled “Picture

Boost” in the OSD menu. Turn on “Bright Frame” to select a zone on the screen to be enhanced.
Please note when adjust or turn on any one of the DCB features, the rest of color settings including
DCR will be disabled or return to default.

Disclaimer: DCB aftereffects are subject to the resolution and quality of the display content, hence
may look different than the above illustrations.
