1.1 Safety precautions and mainte­nance
Warnings
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.
Operation
• Please Keep the monitor out of direct
sunlight, very strong bright lights and away from any other heat source. Lengthy exposure to this type of environment may result in discoloration and damage to the monitor.
• Remove any object that could fall into
ventilation holes or prevent proper cooling of the monitor’s electronics.
• Do not block the ventilation holes on the
cabinet.
• When positioning the monitor, make sure
the power plug and outlet are easily ac­cessible.
• If turning off the monitor by detaching the
power cable or DC power cord, wait for 6 seconds before attaching the power cable or DC power cord for normal operation.
• Please use approved power cord provided by Philips all the time. If your power cord is missing, please contact with your local service center. (Please refer to Customer Care Consumer Information Center)
• Do not subject the monitor to severe vibration or high impact conditions during operation.
• Do not knock or drop the monitor during operation or transportation.
Maintenance
• To protect your monitor from possible damage, do not put excessive pressure on the LCD panel. When moving your moni­tor, grasp the frame to lift; do not lift the monitor by placing your hand or fingers on the LCD panel.
• 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 may be wiped with a dry cloth when the power is off. However, never use organic solvent, such as, alcohol, or ammonia-based liquids to clean your monitor.
• To avoid the risk of shock or permanent damage to the set, do not expose the monitor to dust, rain, water, or excessive moisture environment.
• If your monitor gets wet, wipe it with dry cloth as soon as possible.
• If foreign substance or water gets in your monitor, please turn the power off immedi­ately and disconnect the power cord. Then, remove the foreign substance or water, and send it to the maintenance center.
• Do not store or use the monitor in loca­tions exposed to heat, direct sunlight or extreme cold.
• In order to maintain the best performance of your monitor and use it for a longer life­time, please use the monitor in a location that falls within the following temperature and humidity ranges.
1
1. Important
• Temperature: 0-40°C 32-95°F
• Humidity: 20-80% RH
Important information for Burn-in/Ghost image
• Always activate a moving screen saver program when you leave your monitor unattended. Always activate a periodic screen refresh application if your moni­tor will display unchanging static content. Uninterrupted display of still or static im­ages over an extended period may cause “burn in”, also known as “after-imaging” or “ghost imaging”, on your screen. "Burn-in", "after-imaging", or "ghost imag­ing" is a well-known phenomenon in LCD panel technology. In most cases, the “burned in” or “after-imaging” or “ghost imaging” will disappear gradually over a period of time after the power has been switched off.
Warning
Failure to activate a screen saver, or a periodic screen refresh application may result in severe” burn-in” or “after-image” or “ghost image” symptoms will not disappear and cannot be repaired. The damage mentioned above is not covered under your warranty.

3. Image Optimization

3.1 SmartContrast

What is it?
A unique technology that dynamically analyzes displayed content and automatically optimizes an LCD monitor's contrast ratio for maximum visual clarity and viewing enjoyment, stepping up backlighting for clearer, crisper and brighter images or dimming backlighting for clear display of images on dark backgrounds.
Why do I need it?
You want the very best visual clarity and viewing comfort for every type of content. SmartContrast dynamically controls contrast and adjusts backlighting for clear, crisp, bright gaming and video images or displays clear, readable text for office work. By reducing your monitor's power consumption, you save on energy costs and extend the lifetime of your monitor.
How does it work?
When you activate SmartContrast, it will analyse the content you are displaying in real time to adjust colors and control backlight intensity. This function will dynamically enhance contrast for a great entertainment experience when viewing videos or playing games.
