6. The ENERGY STAR option resets all user settings to default values so that the monitor
can meet the requirements of Energy Star.
Energy Star is an energy saving program for consumer electronics led by the U.S.
government. It was launched in 1992 by EPA and DOE to reduce energy consumption and
greenhouse gas emissions. Energy Star logo is a symbol of energy conservation and
environmental protection. It improves the concept of energy efficiency of consumers and
manufacturers, and effectively guides the market.
The regulation of Energy Star improves energy efficiency and reduces air pollution by
using more energy-efficient equipment in homes, offices and factories. One way to
achieve this goal is to use management to reduce energy consumption when products are
not in use. The default settings for monitors conform to Energy Star certification. Any
changes by users for more features and functionalities may increase power consumption,
which will exceed the limitation of Energy Star's standard. If the user changes the options
related to energy efficiency when using, such as brightness, color mode, etc., select All
Reset Factory or choose the Energy Star option, the power consumption will be restored to
the energy efficiency with Energy Star standard.
For more information, please refer to (www.energystar.gov/products). All products of
Energy Star will be posted online and can be accessed directly by governments, public
institutions and consumers.
