Safety and Maintenance Guidelines

Important Safety Information

The power cord is designed for use with your monitor. To use a different cord, use only a power source and connection compatible with this monitor.

• WARNING: Always connect your monitor, the computer, and other equipment to a grounded (earthed) power outlet. To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment, do not disable the power cord grounding feature. The grounding plug is an important safety feature.

• WARNING: For your safety, be sure that the grounded power outlet you plug the power cord into is easily accessible to the operator and located as close to the equipment as possible. To disconnect power from the equipment, unplug the power cord from the power outlet by grasping the plug firmly. Never pull on the cord.

• CAUTION: To protect your monitor, as well as your computer, connect all power cords for your computer and its peripheral devices (such as a monitor, printer, or scanner) to a surge protection device such as a power strip with surge protection or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

Not all power strips provide surge protection; the power strips must be specifically labeled as having this ability. Use a power strip whose manufacturer offers a damage replacement policy, so you can replace your equipment if surge protection fails.

Safety Precautions

• Use only a power source and connection compatible with this monitor, as indicated on the label/back plate of the monitor.

• Be sure the total ampere rating of the products connected to the outlet does not exceed the current rating of the electrical outlet, and the total ampere rating of the products connected to the power cord does not exceed the rating of the power cord. Look on the power label to determine the ampere rating (Amps or A) for each device.

• Install your monitor near a power outlet that you can easily reach. Disconnect the monitor by grasping the plug firmly and pulling it from the outlet. Never disconnect the monitor by pulling the cord.

• Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not walk on the cord.

Wall-Mounting the Monitor (Mounting Fixture not Supplied)

Before you mount the monitor on a wall, a swing arm, or other mounting fixture, you must remove the monitor base and the pedestal. You will need a Phillips screwdriver. Read the following warning and caution statements before beginning the procedure.

• WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or of damage to the equipment, check that the wall-mounting fixture is adequately installed and secured before attaching the monitor. Refer to the instructions supplied with the wall-mounting fixture and check that it is capable of supporting the monitor.

Connecting the VGA (Analog) or DVI-D (Digital) Cable

Use a VGA video cable or a DVI-D video cable (provided with select models). To use DVI, you must have a DVI-compliant graphic card. Connectors are located on the back of the monitor. Be sure the computer and monitor are turned off and unplugged.

Some graphic cards have both a DVI connector and a DVI-to-VGA converter included in the box (select models only). If the monitor has a VGA connector but no DVI connector, use the DVI-to-VGA converter to connect to the computer: Connect the DVI-to-VGA converter to the DVI connector on the computer graphic card, and then connect the VGA cable to the converter and the monitor.

Connecting the VGA or DVI-D cable—connector locations may vary

To connect the VGA cable

Connect one end of the VGA video cable to the back of the monitor and the other end to the VGA video connector on the computer.

To connect the DVI-D cable

Connect one end of the DVI-D video cable to the back of the monitor and the other end to the DVI video connector on the computer. You can use this cable only if your compute has a DVI-compliant graphic card installed. The monitor DVI-D connector and cable are included with select models only.

✎NOTE: If you use a DVI-to-HDMI adapter, you must connect the green audio cable to enable the speakers. The signal from the DVI connector is for video only.

Connecting the HDMI Cable

Connect one end of the HDMI cable (select models only) to the back of the monitor and the other end to any compatible digital audio/video source, such as a set-top box, a DVD player, or a digital television.

Audio and Video Cables and Adapters

The following table shows the cable and adapter types that may be required to connect the monitor to the computer, TV, or set-top box.

The number and type of cables required may vary by model. Some cables and adapters are included for select models only and may be sold separately.

Cable/Adapter	Name	Description
	HDMI cable	HDMI transmits an all-digital signal. It is the
		recommended choice for playback from a DVD
		or DVR.
		HDMI is capable of transmitting both
		uncompressed digital audio and digital video
		signals, because it has video, audio, and control
		signals.
	DVI cable	DVI transmits an all-digital video signal.

VGA cable VGA transmits an analog video signal.

		DVI-to-VGA adapter	Connects a DVI monitor to a VGA connector on the
			back of the computer, TV, or set-top box or connects
			a VGA monitor to a DVI connector on the back of
			the computer, TV, or set-top box.
		DVI-to-HDMI adapter	Connects a DVI monitor to an HDMI connector on
			the back of the computer, TV, or set-top box or
			connects an HDMI monitor to a DVI connector on
			the back of the computer, TV, or set-top box.
			✎ NOTE: If you use a DVI-to-HDMI
			adapter, you must connect the green
			audio cable to enable the speakers.

✎NOTE: When using a VGA or DVI signal, you must connect your audio separately because a VGA or DVI signal converts only video data, not audio data. A separate audio connection is not necessary when you use an HDMI signal, because an HDMI signal can convert both video and audio data.

Connecting the Power Cable

1. Read the warning below.

• WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment:

• Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature. Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet.

• Be sure that the grounded power outlet you plug the power cord is easily accessible to the operator and located as close to the equipment as possible. A power cord should be routed so that it is not likely to be walked on or pinched by items that are placed upon it or against it.

• Do not place anything on power cords or cables. Arrange them so that no one may accidentally step on or trip over them. Do not pull on a cord or cable.

See “Power Cord Set Requirements” in Appendix B for additional information.
