EnglishPreparation
Caution:After taking the monitor out of the outer box, place the monitor face-down on
the floor.
Avoid placing the monitor face-up as the screws in the stand may damage the
surface (e.g. table).
1. Lay a soft cloth on an even stable surface and place the monitor face-down on it.
DO NOT block ventilated openings with mounting accessories or other accessories.
TIP:•Prevent the glass surface and the Control button on the front panel from touching the table or floor surface or
obstacles on the surface. Rest the monitor in a stable position.
Unstable placing may damage the monitor.
•To prevent the glossy surface of the casing from being scratched, do not remove the protective film on the glossy
surface until the monitor is set upright on its stand.
•After the monitor is set upright, remove* the protect film before using.
*Leaving the protective film may cause discoloration or other damage to the glossy surface.

4. Connect the power.
1. Insert the power cord to the power socket of the monitor.
Connect the cord securely.
2. Feed the power cord, signal cables, and audio cables connected to the monitor through the cable space at the rear of the
stand.
Tuck the cables connected to the side of the monitor in the cable gap at the rear of the monitor (this will become a space
when the cover is closed) and feed them through the cable space of the stand.
TIP:Tilt the monitor upwards when putting the cables through the cable holes.
This will ensure sufficient cable length when the monitor is tilted back to the vertical position.
* These tasks are not required if you do not wish to use these holes for cable management.
3. Attach the rear cover.
TIP:Move the monitor up and down to confirm the cables are secured with sufficient allowance.
Caution:•Perform the reverse procedure when removing the cables and cord.
Start removing the cable from the point shown by the arrow (
) in the following figure so that they can be
removed easily.
•Keep your face away from the rear cover and prevent your nails from getting caught in the cover when
taking it on or off.
This is to avoid injury in case the rear cover comes off accidentally.
•Prevent the cables from getting trapped in a narrow gap when replacing the rear cover.
4. Connect the power cord to the power outlet.

							English-16 5. Connecting Headphones.
Headphones can be connected to the headphone output of the monitor.
Caution:•Do not wear the headphones when connecting them to the monitor
headphones output. Loud noise may damage your ears.
•Do not turn up the volume too high while using
headphones.
Exposing your ears to loud volumes over a long period
may damage your hearing.
NOTE:•Headphones with a stereo mini jack plug can be used with the monitor.
If your headphone plug is too large, use a commercially available stereo mini jack plug adapter.
•Speaker sound is muted when headphones are connected to the monitor.
6. Install the monitor.
TIP:Position the 
 mark on the underside of the stand to the front when installing
the monitor. If this 
 mark is not aligned to the front, the monitor will not
swivel equally to the right and left.
7. Turn on the monitor and the computer.

5. Adjustments.
1. Adjust the Screen.
•When Digital Connection is Used:
There is no need to perform screen setting adjustment as it is automatically adjusted.
•When Analog Connection is Used:
Perform Auto Adjust following the instructions in “Performing Auto Adjust (PC Analog Connection Only)” on page 17.
If the display does not function correctly after Auto Adjust, see “Monitor Settings (OSD Functions)” on page 20.
2. Adjust Height and Angle.
Adjust the monitor height and angle to a
comfortable position. Position the monitor as
shown in the figure on the right.
Tilt AngleTilt Angle
Swivel Angle
Do not push the
LCD panel surface.
Caution:•Avoid trapping your hand or fingers between the display and the installation table or the
stand when adjusting the tilt angle and height. May cause an injury.
•The monitor joints may be stiff at the initial tilting and height adjustment. In this case,
hold the top and bottom of the monitor to make the adjustment.
•Do not tilt the monitor greater than 25° while in use, although it is physically possible.
Tilting beyond this degree may cause it to become unstable or cause insufficient
ventilation, resulting in injury or damage to the monitor.
•Set the stand height to the lowest when tilting the monitor beyond 25° for repackaging.
Otherwise, it may fall over resulting in an injury or damage to the monitor.
Also remove the rear cover before tilting.
The cover may become trapped between the back of the monitor and the stand
resulting in damage to the cover.
•Avoid pushing the LCD panel surface while adjusting the height and tilt angle.
This may cause damage, possibly leading to failure or injury.
•Swiveling may not be smooth if the monitor is installed on an uneven surface or at a
low height.
Do not swivel with force or this may damage the installation surface. Lift the monitor
front slightly when swiveling.
NOTE:The monitor joint becomes stiffer when the tilt angle reaches 25° indicating that this is the
limit for normal use.

EnglishPerforming Auto Adjust (PC Analog Connection Only)
If the monitor is connected to a computer through an analog connection, perform Auto Adjust before using the monitor.
Then apply individual adjustment if necessary using the respective monitor controls (Page 23 to 25).
Auto Adjust can be divided into two sections: one for contrast, and the other for position, horizontal size, and phase.
Perform both Auto Adjust sections.
NOTE:•Auto Adjust sets the display contrast, position, horizontal size, and phase automatically to the optimum.
No Auto Adjust is required when a digital connection is used.
•For details of the Auto Adjust operations, including how to display the OSD Screen, see “OSD Screen Operations”
on page 21.
1. Turn on the monitor and the computer.
2. Press the INPUT/SELECT button on the monitor, or the D-SUB button in the VIDEO INPUT area on the remote controller
to change the video input to D-Sub.
