5-2 Power Saving 
This monitor has a built-in power management system called Power Saving. This system 
saves energy by switching your monitor into a low-power mode when it has not been 
used for a certain amount of time. The monitor automatically returns to normal operation when   
a key is pressed on the keyboard. For energy conservation, turn the monitor OFF when it is not   
in use, or when leaving it unattended for long periods.
