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 AC 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 (sold separately), you must position the monitor facedown on a soft
●
area to prevent it from getting scratched, defaced, or broken.
