Safety Instructions
Before connecting the AC power cord to the DC adapter outlet, make sure the voltage
1
designation of the DC adapter corresponds to the local electrical supply. Never insert anything metallic into the cabinet openings of the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
2
monitor; doing so may create the danger of electric shock. To avoid electric shock, never touch the inside of the LCD monitor. Only a qualified
3
technician should open the case of the LCD monitor. Never use your LCD monitor if the power cord has been damaged. Do not allow anything to
4
rest on the power cord, and keep the cord away from areas where people can trip over it. Be sure to hold the plug, not the cord, when disconnecting the LCD monitor from an
5
electric socket.
Openings in the LCD monitor cabinet are provided for ventilation. To prevent overheating,
6
these openings should not be blocked or covered. Also, avoid using the LCD monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, or other soft surface. Doing so may block the ventilation openings in the bottom of the cabinet. If you put the LCD monitor in a bookcase or some other enclosed space, be sure to provide adequate ventilation.
Put your LCD monitor in a location with low humidity and a minimum of dust.
7
Do not expose the LCD monitor to rain or use it near water (in kitchens, near swimming
8
pools, etc.). If the LCD monitor accidentally gets wet, unplug it and contact an authorized dealer immediately. You can clean the LCD monitor with a damp cloth when necessary, but be sure to unplug the LCD monitor first.
Place the LCD monitor on a solid surface and treat it carefully. The screen is made of thin
9
glass with a plastic front surface and can be damaged if dropped, hit or scratched. Do not clean the front panel with keton-type materials (e.g., acetone), ethyl alcohol, toluene, ethyl acid, methyl, or chloride – these may damage the panel.
Locate your LCD monitor near an easily accessible AC outlet.
10
If your LCD monitor does not operate normally – in particular, if there are any unusual
11
sounds or smells coming from it – unplug it immediately and contact an authorized dealer or service center.
High temperature can cause problems. Don’t use your LCD monitor in direct sunlight, and
12
keep it away from heaters, stoves, fireplaces, and other sources of heat. Unplug the LCD monitor when it is going to be left unused for an extended period of time.
13
Unplug your LCD monitor from the AC outlet before any service.

NOTE: Although the monitor is designed to be compatible with wide variety of popular video
adaptors, it is WUXGA, 1920x1200 mode, that needs special care. Since there is no industry standard for WUXGA mode, video adaptor manufacturers are using several different configurations that cause the monitor false video mode interpretation. If the screen image is quality is poor when you are using either UXGA or WUXGA mode, please check the followings.
1. UXGA mode identified as WUXGA mode
Touch the “MENU” button, and then select “Hz”, information, icon.
Read the information and make sure that the video mode says “1600x1200”
If no resolution is appeared, then the monitor is in WUXGA mode.
2. WUXGA node identified as UXGA mode Touch the “MENU” button, and the select “HZ”, information, icon.

If your monitor screen remains blank after following the previous procedure, check your video controller and computer system; your monitor is functioning properly.
Getting Help
If your monitor does not display an image, check your cable connections and refer to "Troubleshooting" on page 21. If you experience difficulties with the quality of the displayed image, run Auto Adjustment by touching “AUTO” control button. You may want to refer to “Adjusting Your LCD Monitor” on page 8 or “Troubleshooting” on page 21.
Warm-up Time
All LCD monitors need time to become thermally stable whenever you turn on the monitor after letting the monitor be turned off for a couple of hours. Therefore, to achieve more accurate adjustments for parameters, allow the LCD monitor to warm (be on) for at least 20 minutes before making any screen adjustments.

It is recommended for you to use "Auto Adjustment" first. If the adjustment results are not satisfactory, then use COARSE and FINE adjustment features to get the best adjustment results. Bear in mind that COARSE and FINE adjustments may change the width of the image and affect image position as well.

Function Descriptions
Aspect ratio is the proportion of a vertical versus a horizontal resolution, and it varies depending on the input video resolution. For example, 640x480, 800x600, and 1024x768 have the aspect ratio of 4:3, and 1280x1200 has the aspect ratio of 5:4. To view original image without geometrical distortion, aspect ratio must be preserved. The aspect ratio of SyncMaster240T is 16:10 that is neither 4:3 nor 5:4. Thus if the input image resolution has the aspect ratio of 4:3 or 5:4, full screen expansion to 16:10 makes image looked wider to the horizontal direction. This is not appropriate especially for those who do CAD, CAM, and Graphic oriented jobs. To resolve this, IMAGE SIZE control provides three different image expansion methods: Expand 1, Expand 2, and Normal.

PowerSaver
This monitor has a built-in power management system called PowerSaver. This system saves energy by switching your monitor into a low-power mode when it has not been used for a certain period of time. The available modes are “On”, “Standby”, “Sleep”, and “Deep Sleep”. Power Saver operates with a VESA DPMS compliant video card installed in your computer. You use a software utility installed on your computer to set up this feature. See Table 2 below for details.
