ONNECTING
Observe the following instructions to connect your LCD monitor properly:

OWER UPPLY
• Do not open the housing of the mains (power supply). An open housing presents a lethal
hazard from electrical shock. There are no parts inside to be cleaned or serviced.
• Operate your LCD monitor mains (power supply) only on grounded sockets with AC 100-240V~/ 50-60
Hz. If you are not sure about the power supply at your location, check with your power company.
• Use only the mains (power supply) and power connection cable provided.
• For additional safety we recommend use of an excessive voltage protection device to protect your LCD
monitor from damage resulting from voltage surges or lightning.
• To interrupt the LCD monitor from mains (power supply) disconnect the plug from the socket.
• The power socket must be in the vicinity of your LCD monitor and within reach of the power cables.
DO NOT stretch the power cables tightly to reach a power socket.
• If you use an extension cable, ensure that it fulfills the VDE requirements. Please ask your
electrician.
• You should lay the LCD Monitor cables in a manner that no one can trip or step on it.
• To avoid damage of cable do not place any objects or furniture on the cable.
• You can adjust your LCD monitor a maximum of about 3° downward and a maximal 20° upward
(see page 10). If you attempt to go beyond these points with force, the danger of damage exists.

TANDARDS LECTRO
Your monitor fulfils the requirements for electro-magnetic compatibility and electrical safety specified in the
following standards:
• When connecting ensure that Guidelines for Electro-Magnetic Compatibility (EMC) are observed.
• Provide an interval of at least one meter from high-frequency and magnetic sources of interference
(television sets, loudspeakers, mobile telephones, etc.) in order to avoid malfunctions and data loss.

RGONOMICS
• This monitor complies with all relevant regulations such as DIN EN ISO 9241-3, DIN EN ISO 9241-7 and
DIN EN ISO 9241-8.
• For ergonomic reasons we suggest not to use the base-color blue on dark subfonds. This would cause bad read-
ability and would increase eye strain.
• While working with screens you should take breaks periodically to avoid tension and fatigue.
• In order to save your eyes and to assure a convenient working area you should avoid glare, reflections and
strong contrasts on the screen. For more detailed information on workplace ergonomics, see page 12.
