precision of 1ppm (one millionth) above are used for this product. But\
 the pixels of
RED, GREEN, BLUE and WHITE color appear to be bright sometimes or some
black pixels may be seen. This is not from bad quality and you can use i\
t without
any problems.

 use)
This product complies with the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directives \
for residential use
and can be used in all areas including common residential areas. (Class\
 B equipment emits
less electromagnetic waves than Class A equipment.)
PowerSaver This monitor has a built-in power management system called PowerSaver. T\
his system saves
energy by switching your monitor to low-power mode when it has not been \
used for a certain
amount of time. The monitor automatically returns to normal operation wh\
en you press a key
on the keyboard. For energy conservation, turn your monitor OFF when it \
is not needed, or
when leaving it unattended for long periods. The PowerSaver system opera\
tes with a VESA
DPM compliant video card installed in your computer. Use the software ut\
ility installed on
your computer to set up this feature.

For Better Display
 Adjust the computer resolution and screen injection rate (refresh rate\
) on the
computer as described below to enjoy the best picture quality. You can h\
ave an
uneven picture quality on screen if the best picture quality is not prov\
ided for TFT-
LCD.
• Resolution: 1680 x 1050
• Vertical frequency (refresh rate): 60 Hz  TFT-LCD panels manufactured by using advanced semiconductor technology
with a precision of 1ppm (one millionth) and above is used for this pr\
oduct. But the
pixels of RED, GREEN, BLUE and WHITE color seem to be bright sometimes o\
r
some of black pixels could be seen. This is not from bad quality and you\
 can use
it without any problems.
• For example, the number of TFT-LCD sub pixels contained in this product \
are
5,292,000.  When cleaning the monitor and the panel outside, please apply the recom\
-
mended small amount of cleaner by using a soft cloth to polish. Do not f\
orce the
LCD area but rub softly.
If excessive force is applied, you may stain it.  If you are not satisfied with the picture quality, you can get better q\
uality of
picture by performing the  Auto Adjustment function in display screen that is
appeared as window termination button is pressed.
If theres still noise after the automatic adjustment, use the  Fine/Coarse adjustment
function.  When viewing a fixed screen for an extended period of time, a residual \
image
or blurriness may appear.
Change the mode to energy save or set a screensaver to move the picture \
when
you need to be away from the monitor for an extended period of time.
PRODUCT INFORMATION (Image Retention Free) LCD Monitors and TVs may have image retention when switching from one im\
age to another
especially after displaying a stationary image for a long time.
This guide is to demonstrate correct usage of LCD products in order to p\
rotect them from
Image retention.  Warranty
Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.
Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.  What is Image retention ?
56 
						

							During normal operation of a LCD panel, pixel image retention doesnt oc\
cur. How-
ever, if the same image is displayed for a long time, a slight differenc\
e in electric
charge accumulates between the two electrodes which encase the liquid cr\
ystal.
This may cause the liquid crystal to build up in a certain areas of the \
display. Thus,
the previous image is retained when switching to a new video image. All \
display
products, including LCD, are subject to image retention. This is not a p\
roduct de-
fect.
Please follow the suggestions below to protect your LCD from image reten\
tion.
 Power Off, Screen Saver, or Power Save Mode
Ex)
• Turn the power off when using a stationary pattern. • Turn the power off for 4 hours after 20 hours in use
• Turn the power off for 2 hours after 12 hours in use
• Use a Screen saver if possible • Screen saver in one color or a moving image is recommended.
• Set the Monitor to power off with the PC Display Properties Power Scheme\
.  Suggestions for specific applications
Ex) Airports, Transit Stations, Stock Markets, Banks, and Controlling S\
ystems We
recommend that you follow set up of your display system program as below\
:  Display Information together with Logo or Moving image cycle.
Ex) Cycle : Display Information for 1 hour followed by a Display Logo o\
r moving
image for 1 minute.  Change the Color Information periodically (Use 2 different colors).
Ex) Rotate the Color Information with 2 colors every 30 minutes. Avoid using a combination of characters and background color with large \
difference
in luminance.
Avoid using Grey colors, which can cause Image retention easily.
• Avoid: Colors with big difference in luminance (Black & White, Grey)
Ex) Information
57 
						

							• Recommended settings: Bright colors with little difference in luminance
• Change the characters color and background color every 30 minutesEx) • Every 30 minutes, change the characters with movement.
Ex)  
The best way to protect your monitor from Image retention is to set your\
 PC or
System to operate a Screen Saver program when you are not using it.
Image retention may not occur when a LCD panel is operated under normal \
con-
ditions.
Normal conditions are defined as continuously changing video patterns. W\
hen the
LCD panel is operated for a long time with a fixed pattern (-over 12 ho\
urs-), there
may be slight difference in voltage between electrodes that work the liq\
uid crystal
(LC) in a pixel. The voltage difference between electrodes increases w\
ith time,
forcing the liquid crystal to lean. When this occurs, the previous image\
 may be seen
when the pattern is changed.
To prevent this, the accumulated voltage difference must be decreased. Information
