Degaussing The Display - HP Pavilion M703 User Manual

Because of the monitor's power-management
features, you don't normally need to turn off the
monitor when it's not in use. When turned off, the
monitor uses the same amount of power that it
uses in Sleep mode (less than 4 watts).
If your PC doesn't support DPMS power-
management, you can reduce power
consumption by turning off the monitor when it
won't be used for an extended period. You can
turn the monitor off even if you leave the PC
running.
Warning:
To completely disconnect
power from the monitor, you must
remove the power cord from the
AC power outlet or surge protector.

Degaussing the Display

Degaussing removes magnetism that causes
unwanted color variations. Degauss the display
any time you notice unusual color variations.
Note:
Do not degauss more frequently than once every
30 minutes, or the degauss will be incomplete. It is
not necessary to degauss unless you have moved
the monitor.
There are two degaussing methods. Each time
you turn on the monitor, it is automatically
degaussed. You can also use the Degauss option
in the On Screen Display (OSD) Main Menu
window to degauss the display.
See "Using the OSD Main Menu window" on
page 18 for instructions.
