The screen retains an image.
Does image sticking occur even
when the monitor is turned off?
yDisplaying a still image for a prolonged time may cause damage to the
screen, resulting in the retention of the image.
yUse a screen saver to protect the screen when using the monitor for a
prolonged period of time.
NOTE
yVertical Frequency: In order to display an image, the screen must be refreshed dozens of times per
second like a fluorescent lamp.
The number of times the screen is refreshed per second is called vertical frequency or refresh rate
and is represented by Hz.
yHorizontal Frequency: The time it takes to display one horizontal line is called the horizontal cycle.
The number of horizontal lines displayed in one second can be calculated by dividing one by the
horizontal cycle. This is called horizontal frequency and is represented by kHz.

yCheck if the video card's resolution or frequency is within the range allowed by the monitor and set to
the recommended (optimal) resolution in Control Panel > Display > Settings.
yFailing to set the video card to the recommended (optimal) resolution may result in blurred text, a
dimmed screen, a truncated display area or misalignment of the display.
yThe configuration procedure may differ depending on your computer and/or operating system. Also,
some video cards may not support certain resolutions. If this is the case, contact the manufacturer of
the computer or video card for assistance.
