IMPORTANT NOTICE CONCERNING POWER CORD SELECTION
The power cord for this unit has been packed separately and has been selected according to the country of
destination and must be used to prevent electric shock. Use the following guidelines if it is necessary to replace
the original cord set.
The female receptacle of the cord set must meet CEE-22 requirements and will look like Figure 1:
For the United States and Canada:
In the United States and Canada the male plug is a NEMA 5-15 style (Figure 2) and is UL listed and CSA
labelled. For units which are mounted on a desk or table, type SVT or SJT cord sets may be used. For units
which sit on the floor, only SJT type cord sets may be used. The cord set must be selected according to the
current rating for your unit. Please consult Table A for the selection criteria for power cords used in the United
States and Canada.
For European Countries:
In Europe you must use a cord set which is appropriate for the receptacles in your country. The cord set
Is HAR-CertIfled, and the mark 4 HAR^ will appear on the outer sheath, or on the Insulation of one of the
Inner conductors.
If you have any questions concerning the proper power cord to use, please consult with the dealer where you
purchased your unit.

If there is a television set or other display unit nearby, keep your display unit as far
away from it as possible. Mutual interference can cause image distortion or noise.
• Long exposure to rubber or vinyl products can stains the cabinet.
• Keep the monitor from physical shock when moving. Be careful of the Active MatrixLiquid Crystal Display (AM-LCD).
• Do not place anything on the monitor.
• Also take good care of the power cable.
Do not place any objects on the power cable. Do not attempt to extend, shorten on tie
it into a knot.
3) Product Care
• Prior to cleaning your display unit, disconnect the VGA Signal Cable from the display
unit.
• Use a clean, soft, dry cloth to clean the outside of the monitor or the AM-LCD surface.
If the monitor or AM-LCD surface is very dirty, wet a clean, soft cloth with neutral
detergent (such as dishwashing detergent) and water, squeeze it tight until almost dry,
wipe the monitor or AM-LCD surface with it, and finish by wiping with a clean dry cloth.
Do not use any solvents.
• Do not rub or strike the AM-LCD with anything hard or harsh as this may scratch, mar
or damage the AM-LCD permanently.
• Do not use a chemical duster or polish-cleaner because it can adversely affect the unit
and peal the paint coat.

This function displays if the main unit is operating correctly.
Figure A or B is displayed if any of the five menu operation keys (MENU, <]; 0, -, +) are
pressed.
1) Figure A is displayed when the input synchronization signal exceeds the specified range.
• The frequency is displayed in red when fH or fV exceed the specified range.
2) Figure B is displayed when the power save mode is set. (This figure is only displayed in
the off state.)
3) Figure B is displayed when there is no input signal.
For example, this occurs when the computer is not connected or the computer power is off.

Power Management System
This monitor conforms to the VESA DPMS standard.
This function can reduce power consumption by the display unit.
The computer and video board being used must also conform to the VESA DPMS
standard.
* Consult the Operation Manuals for the hardware being used.
Modes change in response to input signals as indicated in the table below.

Memories
This display has two types of memory to store the data sets that control the on-screen
image. The first type of memory is the Preset Memory which is set by the factory. The
second type is the User Memory which is set by the user. Both memories store the
Horizontal Size, Vertical Size, Horizontal Position, Vertical Position, V. finetune,
H. finetune. Picture and Video signal level adjustments of the displayed image.
Preset Memory
There are 15 reservation timing that are set by the factory. The preset timing will automatically size and center
the image with video boards which use these timing. Please see page 17 tor Timing Specifications.
User Memory
• There are 16 memory locations that allow for user timing. The image size and position are adjusted by the
user. Please see page 17 for recommended timing that the display supports.
• If the User Memory is completely full, and a new set of data is saved, the oldest data set in the User Memory
will be deleted.
• When the user timing is input, the Total line, Horizontal frequencies and sync polarities of the signal are
compared with the previous data stored in memory. The input signal will be stored as a new data set if one of
its parameters is different from the previous stored one.
• The new input signal must have a frequency difference greater than that shown in the table below or a
different sync, polarity from that already stored. If the new timing data includes frequency changes greater
than those shown in the table below or sync, polarity changes, a new user memory setting will be stored. If
the frequency difference is smaller than that of the chart and the sync, polarities are the same, the existing
settings will be retained.
Horizontal frequency
Low 30 kHz ± 0.2 kHz
to
Hi 61 kHz ± 0.4 kHz
Please note if the timing does not meet the display specifications, the size and position adjustment may not
appear as desired. Be sure the horizontal and vertical timing are within the monitor specification range.
See page 17 for Timing Specifications. See pages 17 and 18 for preset, reservation and recommended timing.
