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.

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.

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

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
