Manufacturer's notes

Energy Star
The Siemens Nixdorf multiscan color monitor MCM 1755 NTD is designed to conserve electricity by dropping to less than 15 W when it goes into suspend mode and to less than 5 W when it goes into OFF mode. With this new power management the MCM 1755 NTD qualifies for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Energy Star Computers award.
The EPA estimates that computer equipment uses 5 percent of all business electricity and it is growing rapidly. If all desktop PCs and peripherals enter a low-power mode when not in use, the overall savings in electricity could amount to $ 2 billion annually. These savings could also prevent the emission of 20 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere - the equivalent of 5 million automobiles.
The EPA, as a matter of policy, seeks only to promote energy efficiency and does not endorse any particular company or its products.
CE certificate
This device complies with the requirements of the EEC directive 89/336/EEC "Electromagnetic compatibility" and 73/23/EEC "Low voltage directive" with amending directive 93/67/EEC.

Note on RFI suppression

All other devices connected to this product must have RFI suppression in accordance with EEC directive 89/336/EEC. Products meeting these requirements are accompanied by a certificate issued by the manufacturer and carry the CE symbol.
In Germany, products not complying with these requirements can be operated only after a special authorization has been granted by the BZT.

Notes on ergonomic color adjustment

If you select colors for the display in your application programs, take note of the information below.
The primary colors blue and red on a dark background do not produce the minimum required contrast of 3:1 and are therefore not suitable for continuous text and data entry.
When using several colors for characters and background and giving the primary colors full modulation, you can obtain very suitable color combinations (see the following table):
Back-
ground Character color
color black white purple blue cyan green yellow red
black + + - + + + -
white + + + - - - +
purple + + - - - - -
blue - + - + - + -
cyan + - - + - - -
green + - - + - - -
yellow + - + + - - +
red - +----+
+ Color combination very suitable; light background colors are only suitable for
devices which are operated with a refresh rate of at least 75 Hz.
- Color combination not suitable because color locations are too close together, thin characters are not identifiable or rigorous focusing is demanded of the human eye.

Color monitor MCM 1755 NTD

Cleaning the monitor

Always pull out the power plug before you clean the monitor.
!
Do not clean any interior parts yourself, leave this job to a service technician.
Do not use any cleaning agents that contain abrasives or may corrode plastic.
Ensure that no liquid will run into the system. Ensure that the ventilation areas of the monitor are free.
Wipe the monitor housing with a dry cloth. If the monitor is particularly dirty, use a cloth which has been moistened in mild domestic detergent and then carefully wrung out.

Transporting the monitor

When transporting the monitor ensure that it is not exposed to strong
!
magnetic fields. Transport the monitor with care and only in its original packaging or
another corresponding packaging fit to protect it against knocks and jolts. Above all, never drop the monitor. If the CRT is damaged, there is a
danger of implosion!
