Maintaining the monitor
Properly maintained, your monitor can run for many years. These instructions provide steps you can perform
to keep your monitor in the best condition.
Maintenance guidelines
Follow these instructions 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 or back
●
plate of the monitor.
Be sure that the total ampere rating of the products connected to the outlet does not exceed the current
●
rating of the AC outlet and that 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 it is not in use, and use a screen saver program. Doing this can substantially
●
increase the life expectancy of the monitor.
NOTE:
A burned-in image on the monitor is not covered under the HP warranty.
Never block the slots and openings of the cabinet or push objects into them. These openings provide
●
ventilation.
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.
