Safety precautions and maintenance

WARNING: Use of controls, adjustments or procedures other than those specified in this documentation may result in exposure to shock, electrical hazards and/or mechanical hazards.

Read and follow these instructions when connecting and using your computer monitor:

● Unplug the monitor if you are not going to use it for an extensive period of time.

● Unplug the monitor if you need to clean it with a slightly damp cloth. The screen many be wiped

with a dry cloth when the power is off. However, never use alcohol, solvents or ammonia-based liquids.

● Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally when you have followed

the instructions in this manual.

● The casing cover should be opened only by qualified service personnel.

● Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight and away from stoves or any other heat source.

● Remove any object that could fall into the vents or prevent proper cooling of the monitor’s

electronics.

● Do not block the ventilation holes on the cabinet.

● Keep the monitor dry. To avoid electric shock, do not expose it to rain or excessive moisture.

● When positioning the monitor make sure the power plug and outlet are easily accessible.

● If turning off the monitor by detaching power cable or DC power cord, wait for 6 seconds before

attaching the power cable or DC power cord for normal operation.

● To avoid the risk of shock or permanent damage to the set do not expose the monitor to rain or

excessive moisture.

● IMPORTANT: Always activate a screen saver program during your application. If a still image in

high contrast remains on the screen for an extended period of time, it may leave an 'after-image' or 'ghost image' on front of the screen. This is a well-known phenomenon that is caused by the shortcomings inherent in LCD technology. In most cases the after-image will disappear gradually over a period of time after the power has been switched off. Be aware that the after-image

symptom cannot be repaired and is not covered under warranty.

Consult a service technician if the monitor does not operate normally when the operating instructions given in this manual have been followed.

sRGB

sRGB is a standard for ensuring correct exchange of colors between different devices (e.g. digital cameras, monitors, printers, scanners, etc.)

Using a standard unified color space, sRGB will help represent pictures taken by an sRGB compatible device correctly on your sRGB enabled Philips monitors. In that way, the colors are calibrated and you can rely on the correctness of the colors shown on your screen.

Important with the use of sRGB is that the brightness and contrast of your monitor is fixed to a predefined setting as well as the color gamut. Therefore it is important to select the sRGB setting in the monitor's OSD.

To do so, open the OSD by pressing the OK button on the front of your monitor. Use the down button to go to Adjust Color and press OK again. Then move the down button to go to sRGB and press OK again.

Exit this OSD.

After this, please don't change the brightness or contrast setting of your monitor. If you change either of these, the monitor will exit the sRGB mode and go to a color temperature setting of 6500K.

For more information on sRGB, please visit: www.srgb.com

Automatic Power Saving

If you have VESA DPMS compliance display card or software installed in your PC, the monitor can automatically reduce its power consumption when not in use. If an input from a keyboard, mouse or other input device is detected, the monitor will 'wake up' automatically. The following table shows the power consumption and signaling of this automatic power saving feature:

D-SUB

Your monitor comes with a D-Sub cable.

Digital Visual Interface (DVI)

The Digital Visual Interface (DVI) specification provides a high-speed digital connection for visual data types that is display technology independent. The interface is primarily focused at providing a connection between a computer and its display device. The DVI specification meets the needs of all segments of the PC industry (workstation, desktop, laptop, etc.) and will enable these different segments to unite around one monitor interface specification.

Glossary

The DVI interface enables:

1. Content to remain in the lossless digital domain from creation to consumption.

2. Display technology independence.

3. Plug and play through hot plug detection, EDID and DDC2B.

4. Digital and Analog support in a single connector.
