7. Using the device for the fi rst time
DE
7.1. Before connecting the monitor
It is possible that your existing monitor supports a physical resolution that is not supported by your new monitor. In this case, the image on your new monitor may not appear correctly after it has been connected.
 To prevent this, select a a physical resolution that is supported by both of your monitors. Set this
physical resolution in your operating system before connecting your new monitor.
A table listing the physical resolutions supported by this monitor can be found in the section “Set­ting the screen resolution” on page 12.
7.2. Mounting
Attach the monitor stand as shown in the illustration. Carry out this step before connecting the mo­nitor. Use a screwdriver to tighten all screws.
1) First place the monitor back in the polystyrene packaging, to protect it during the installation.
2) Install the stand as follows. Please refer to the diagrams.
a) Place the stand onto the arm. b) Tighten three of the supplied screws between the arm and stand. c) Place the arm onto the rear of the monitor. d) Tighten two of the supplied screws between the arm and monitor. e) Finally put the cover onto the rear of the arm.

7.3. Setting up and positioning the monitor
PLEASE NOTE!
Avoid dazzle, reflections and strong bright-dark contrast in order to protect your eyes.
The monitor should never be placed next to a window because this is the brightest part of the room in daylight. This brightness can make it more difficult for the eyes to adjust to the darker monitor.
The monitor should always be positioned so that the direction of vision is parallel to the window fron­tage.
The parallel line of vision should also be maintained in relation to artificial lighting equipment. In other words, the same criteria and principles apply where the workspace is illuminated with artificial light.
If it is not possible to position the screen as described, the following can be helpful:
• Rotate, lower or tilt the monitor;
• Slatted or vertical blinds on the windows;
• Partitions or changes to artificial lighting.
PLEASE NOTE!
Take regular breaks when working at your monitor to prevent tenseness and fa­tigue.
Sitting for a long time without changing position can be uncomfortable. Correct posture is very im­portant for minimising the risks of physical problems or damage.
50 - 60 cm
40 - 45°
46 - 55 cm
90°
66 - 71 cm
In general – change your position frequently (around every 20-30 minutes) and take regular breaks to avoid tiredness.
Back – when sitting at your workstation, your back must be supported by your chair’s backrest, which must be upright or angled slightly back.
Arms – your arms and elbows should be relaxed and loose. Your elbows should be close to your body. Hold your forearms and hands roughly parallel to the floor.
10
Wrists – when working with the keyboard, mouse or trackball, your wrists should be stretched
out and not bent at an angle of more than 10°, where possible. Make sure that your wrists are not resting on the table edge itself.
Legs – your thighs should be horizontal or angled slightly down. Your lower legs should form an
angle with your thighs of approximately 90°. Your feet should be resting flat on the floor. Use a foot rest if you need one, but first make sure that your seat height has been adjusted correctly.
Head – your head should be upright or bent very slightly forward. Do not work with your head
or upper body twisted. As you work, the top edge of the monitor should be at eye level or very slightly lower. The distance between the monitor and the person viewing it depends on individual require­ments. Distances between 50 and 70cm are commonly used.
7.4. Connecting the monitor
NOTE!
In order to avoid any damage or malfunctions, only connect the connection cable when the monitor and the computer are switched off.
7.4.1. Connecting the signal cable
 Insert the signal cable into either the HDMI IN, DVI IN or DP IN connections on the moni-
tor and into the appropriate connections on the computer.

Defect type 1
Pixel constantly lit
For active matrix TFTs with a resolution of 3,440 x 1,440 pixels, which are each made up of three sub-pixels (red, green, blue), there are a total of approximately 14.9 mil­lion control transistors in use. Due to this very high number of transistors and the associated extremely complex manufacturing processes used, occasionally one or more pixels can fail or become incorrectly cont­rolled.
The ISO standard ISO 9241-307 defines, amongst other things, the generally applicable guidelines relating to pixel defects. Pixel defects are categorised into four fault classes and three defect types. Every individual pi­xel consists of three sub-pixels, each of which is assig­ned a basic colour (red, green, blue).
