Maintenance guidelines

To enhance the performance and extend the life of the monitor:
Do not open the monitor cabinet or attempt to service this product yourself. Adjust only those
controls that are covered in the operating instructions. If the monitor is not operating properly or
has been dropped or damaged, contact an authorized HP dealer, reseller, or service provider.
Use only a power source and connection appropriate for 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
cord does not exceed the rating of the cord. Look on the power label to determine the ampere
rating (AMPS or A) for each device.
Install the monitor near an 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.
Turn the monitor off when not in use. You can substantially increase the life expectancy of the
monitor by using a screen saver program and turning off the monitor when not in use.
NOTE:
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. These openings must not be
blocked or covered. Never push objects of any kind into cabinet slots or other openings.
Do not drop the monitor or place it on an unstable surface.
Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not walk on the cord.
Keep the monitor in a well-ventilated area, away from excessive light, heat or moisture.
When removing the monitor stand, you must lay the monitor face down on a soft area to prevent
it from getting scratched, defaced, or broken.

Cleaning the monitor

1.
Turn off the monitor and unplug the power cord from the back of the unit.

Spray the cleaner onto a cloth and use the damp cloth to gently wipe the screen surface.
