About the built-in stereo speaker
Be sure to keep magnetic recordin g eq uipment, tapes, a nd flop py
discs away from the speaker’s opening as the speakers generate a
magnetic field. This magnetic field may affect data stored on
magnetic tapes and discs.
About the bright points of light or black dots
Bright points of light (red, blue or green) or black dots
may appear on the LCD screen. This is not a
malfunction. The LCD screen is made with highprecision technology and more than 99.99 % of the
picture element is intact. Howeve r, some of the picture
element may not appea r or some of the picture element
may appear constantly.
Replacement of the fluorescent tube
A specially designed fluorescent tube is installed as the lighting
apparatus for this monitor. If the screen becomes dark, unstable,
or does not turn on, replace the fluorescent tube with a new one.
Consult your Sony dealer when replac ing the fluorescent tube.
The equipment should be installed near an easily accessible outlet.
Installation
Do not install or leave the monitor:
• In places subject to extreme temperatures, for example near a
radiator, heating ve nt, or in direct sunlight. Su bje c tin g the
monitor to extreme temperatures, such as in an automobile
parked in direct sunlight or near a heating vent, could caus e
deformations of the casing or malfunctions.
• In places subject to mechanical vib ration or shock.
• Near any equipment that generates a strong magnetic field,
such as a TV or various other household appliances.
• In places subject to inordinate amounts of dust, dirt, or sand, for
example near an open window or an outdoor exit. If setting up
temporarily in an outdoor envi ron me n t, be sure to take
adequate precautions against airborne dust and dirt. Otherwise
irreparable malfunctions could occur.
Handling the LCD screen
• Do not leave the LCD screen facing the sun as it can damage
the LCD screen. Take care when you place the monitor by a
window.
• Do not push on or scratch the LCD screen. Do not place a heavy
object on the LCD screen. This may cause the screen to lose
uniformity or cause LCD panel malfunctions.
• If the monitor is used in a cold place, a residual image may
appear on the screen. This is not a malfunction. The screen
returns to normal as the temperature rises to a normal operating
level.
• If a still picture is displayed for a long time, a residu al image
may appear for a while. The residual image will eventually
disappear.
• The LCD panel becomes warm during operation. This is not a
malfunction.
Maintenance
• Be sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet before
cleaning your mon itor.
• Clean the LCD screen with a soft cloth. If you use a glass
cleaning liquid, do not use any type of c leaner containing an
anti-static solution or similar additive as this may scratch the
LCD screen’s coating.
• Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth lightly
moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type
of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as alcohol or
benzine.
• Do not rub, touch, or tap the surface of the screen with sharp or
abrasive items such as a ballpoint pen or screwdriver. This type
of contact may result in a scratched pict ure tube.
• Note that material deterioration or LCD screen coating
degradation may occur if the monitor is exposed to volatile
solvents such as insecticide, or if prolonged cont act is
maintained with rubber or vinyl materials.

Technical Features
Automatic picture quality adjustment function
Power saving function
This monitor meets the power-saving guidelines set by VESA,
E
NERGY STAR, and NUTEK. If the monitor is connected to a
computer or video graphics board that is DPMS (Display Power
Management Signaling) compliant, the monitor will automatically
reduce power consumption in three stages as shown below.
Power mode Power

operation
active off**
(deep sleep)*
power off 1 W (2 W) off
* “deep sleep” is the power saving mode defined by the Environmental
Protection Agency.
** When your computer enters the “active off” mode, the input signal is
cut and NO INPUT SIGNAL appears on the screen. After 20 seconds,
the monitor enters the power saving mode.
*** If the horizontal or vertical sync signal is received by the monitor, the
power indicator may alternately blink green and orange.

indicator
When the monitor receives an input signal, it automatically
matches the signal to one of the factory preset modes stored in the
monitor’s memory to provide a high quality picture at the center
of the screen. (See Appendix for a list of the factory preset
modes.)
For input signals that do not match one of the factory preset
modes, the automatic picture quality adjustment function of this
monitor automatically adjusts the picture position, phase, and
pitch, and ensures that a clear picture appears on the screen for
any timing within the monitor ’s frequency range (horizon tal: 28 –
64 kHz, vertical: 48 – 75 Hz).
Consequently, the first time the monitor receives input signals
that do not match one of the factory preset modes, t he monitor
may take a longer time than normal for displaying the picture on
the screen. This adjustment data is automatically stored in
memory so that next time, the monitor will function in the same
way as when the monitor receives the signals that match one of
the factory preset modes.
In all modes as above, if the picture is adjusted, the adjustment
data is stored as a user mode and automatically recalled whenever
the same input signal is received.
Note
While the automatic picture quality adjustment function is activated, only
the 1 (power) switch will operate.
