This electronic user’s guide is intended
for anyone who uses the Philips
monitor. Take time to read this user
manual before you use your monitor.
It contains important information and
notes regarding operating your monitor.

The Philips guarantee applies provided
the product is handled properly for
its intended use, in accordance with
its operating instructions and upon
presentation of the original invoice
or cash receipt, indicating the date of
purchase, dealer’s name and model
and production number of the product.

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.

Excessive sound pressure from
earphones and headphones can cause
hearing loss. Adjustment of the

equalizer to maximum increases the
earphones and headphones output
voltage and therefore the sound

pressure level.

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.

1

1. Important

• 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.

• Temperature: 0-40°C 32-104°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 “after­image” or “ghost image” symptoms
that will not disappear and cannot be
repaired. The damage mentioned above
is not covered under your warranty.

Service

• The casing cover should be opened

only by qualified service personnel.

• If there is any need for any

document for repair or integration,
please contact with your local
service center. (please refer to the
chapter of “Consumer Information
Center”)

• For transportation information,

please refer to “Technical
Specifications”.

• Do not leave your monitor in a car/

trunk under direct sun light.

Note
Consult a service technician if the
monitor does not operate normally, or
you are not sure what procedure to take
when the operating instructions given
in this manual have been followed.
