Recommended Use cont.

CORRECT PLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE MONITOR

CAN REDUCE EYE, SHOULDER AND NECK FATIGUE. CHECK THE

FOLLOWING WHEN YOU POSITION THE MONITOR:

• Adjust the monitor height so that the top of the
screen is at or slightly below eye level. Your eyes
should look slightly downward when viewing the
middle of the screen.

• Position your monitor no closer than 12 inches and
no further away than 28 inches from your eyes. The
optimal distance is 18 inches.

• Rest your eyes periodically by focusing on an
object at least 20 feet away. Blink often.

• Position the monitor at a 90° angle to windows and other light sources to
minimize glare and reflections. Adjust the monitor tilt so that ceiling lights do
not reflect on your screen.

• If reflected light makes it hard for you to see your screen, use an anti-glare filter.

• Clean your monitor regularly. Use a lint-free, non-abrasive cloth and a

non-alcohol, neutral, non-abrasive cleaning solution or glass cleaner to
minimize dust.

• Adjust the monitor’s brightness and contrast controls to enhance readability.

• Use a document holder placed close to the screen.

• Position whatever you are looking at most of the time (the screen or

reference material) directly in front of you to minimize turning your head
while you are typing.

• Get regular eye checkups.

Ergonomics

To realize the maximum ergonomics benefits, we recommend the following:

• Adjust the Brightness until the background raster disappears

• Do not position the Contrast control to its maximum setting

• Use the preset Size and Position controls with standard signals

• Use the preset Color Setting and Sides Left/Right controls

• Use non-interlaced signals with a vertical refresh rate between 75-160Hz

• Do not use primary color blue on a dark background, as it is difficult to see
and may produce eye fatigue to insufficient contrast

Features

Short-Depth CROMACLEAR® CRT: Delivers superior image quality in a shorter more
compact package. Utilizing a slot mask design, phosphors appear elliptical when
illuminated, resulting in screen images with more depth and dimension. And due
to the 100° deflection CRT, cabinet depth is reduced over conventional 17” and
19” CRT monitors, freeing up 15%-16% more valuable desktop space. Plus
NEC’s patented circuit design, with dual dynamic beam focus, guarantees
excellent edge-to-edge focus, including corners.

Dual Dynamic Beam Focus: Provides precise, continous focus adjustments of the
electron beams and optimum image quality, even to the far edges of the screen.

OptiClear® Screen Surface: Reduces reflection and glare and increases contrast
without sacrificing focus level, clarity or brightness. Along with the flat square
technology CRT, a high contrast screen with 0.25 mm mask pitch delivers crisp,
clean text and graphics.

Invar Shadow Mask: Elliptical holes in the thin metal sheet behind the glass of
the CRT surface correspond to each phosphor dot on the inner surface of the
CRT’s faceplate, allowing the correct electron beam (red, green, blue) to hit the
correct color phosphor for improved focus, brightness and color.

AccuColor® Control System: Allows you to adjust the colors on your screen and
customize the color accuracy of your monitor to a variety of standards.

OSM™ (On-Screen Manager) Controls: Allows you to quickly and easily adjust
all elements of your screen image via simple to use on-screen menus.

ErgoDesign® Features: Enhances human ergonomics to improve the working
environment, protect the health of the user and save money. Examples include
OSM controls for quick and easy image adjustments, tilt/swivel base for pre­ferred angle of vision and compliance with MPRII guidelines for lower emissions.

Plug and Play: The Microsoft® solution with the Windows®95/98 operating
system facilitates setup and installation by allowing the monitor to send its
capabilities (such as screen size and resolutions supported) directly to your
computer, automatically optimizing display performance.

IPM™ (Intelligent Power Manager) System: Provides innovative power-saving
methods that allow the monitor to shift to a lower power consumption level when
on but not in use, saving two-thirds of your monitor energy costs, reducing
emissions and lowering the air conditioning costs of the workplace.

Reduced Magnetic Field™ Technology: Reduces magnetic and alternating electric
field emissions and static electricity, addressing ergonomic concerns regarding
potential risks from extended computer monitor use.

Multiple Frequency Technology: Automatically adjusts monitor to the display
card’s scanning frequency, thus displaying the resolution required.

FullScan™ Capability: Allows you to use the entire screen area in most resolu­tions, significantly expanding image size.

Auto Adjust (MultiSync® E950™ only): Allows you to easily and quickly adjust the
suitable horizontal and vertical size and position settings

TCO’99

Congratulations! You have just purchased a TCO’99 approved and
labeled product! Your choice has provided you with a product devel­oped for professional use. Your purchase has also contributed to
reducing the burden on the environment and also to the further
development of environmentally adapted electronics products.

Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?

In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encourag­ing the adaptation of goods and services to the environment. The main problem, as far as
computers and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful
substances are used both in the products and during the manufacturing. Since it has not been
possible for the majority of electronics equipment to be recycled in a satisfactory way, most
of these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter Nature.

There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption levels, that are
important from the viewpoints of both the work (Internal) and natural (external) environments.
Since all methods of conventional electricity generation have a negative effect on the
environment (acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste, etc.), it is vital to
conserve energy. Electronics equipment in offices consume an enormous amount of energy
since they are often left running continuously.

What does labelling involve?

This product meets the requirements for the TCO’99 scheme which provides for international and
environmental labelling of personal computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint
effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska
Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and Statens Energimyndighet
(The Swedish National Energy Administration).

The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, emission of
electrical and magnetic fields, energy consumption and electrical and fire safety.

The environmental demands concern restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals,
brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other
things. The product must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an
environmental plan which must be adhered to in each country where the company implements its
operational policy. The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display,
after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a lower level in one or
more stages. The length of time to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.

Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in respect of the reduction
of electric and magnetic fields, physical and visual ergonomics and good usability.

Environmental Requirements

Flame retardants
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. In turn,
they delay the spread of fire. Up to thirty percent of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of
flame retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride and these are
related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs, which are suspected to give rise to severe
health effects, including reproductive damage in fisheating birds and mammals, due to the bio-
