Maintenance Guidelines  
Caring for Your Monitor  
CAUTION: Read and follow the safety instructions before cleaning the monitor.  
CAUTION: Before cleaning the monitor, unplug the monitor power cable from the electrical outlet.  
For best practices, follow the instructions in the list below while unpacking, cleaning, or handling your monitor:  
l

thinner, ammonia, abrasive cleaners, or compressed air.  
l
l
l
l
Use a slightly dampened, warm cloth to clean the plastics. Avoid using detergent of any kind as some detergents leave a milky film on the plastics.  
If you notice a white powder when you unpack your monitor, wipe it off with a cloth. This white powder occurs during the shipping of the monitor.  
Handle your monitor with care as a darker-colored monitor may scratch and show white scuff marks more than a lighter-colored monitor.  
To help maintain the best image quality on your monitor, use a dynamically changing screen saver and power off your monitor when not in use.

If your monitor screen remains blank after you use the previous procedure, check your video controller and computer, because your monitor is functioning  
properly.  
NOTE: Self-test feature check is not available for S-Video, Composite, and Component video modes.  
Built-in Diagnostics  
Your monitor has a built-in diagnostic tool that helps you determine if the screen abnormality you are experiencing is an inherent problem with your monitor, or  
with your computer and video card.  
NOTE: You can run the built-in diagnostics only when the video cable is unplugged and the monitor is in self-test mode.  
To run the built-in diagnostics:  
   
A. Ensure that the screen is clean (no dust particles on the surface of the screen).  
B. Unplug the video cable from the back of the computer or monitor. The monitor then goes into the self-test mode.  
C. Press and hold the 1st and 4th buttons on the front panel, simultaneously for 2 seconds. A gray screen appears.  
D. Carefully inspect the screen for abnormalities.  
E. Press the 4th button on the front panel again. The color of the screen changes to red.  
F. Inspect the display for any abnormalities.  
G. Repeat steps E and F to inspect the display in green, blue, and white colored screens.  
The test is complete when the white screen appears. To exit, press the 4th button again.  
If you do not detect any screen abnormalities upon using the built-in diagnostic tool, the monitor is functioning properly. Check the video card and computer.
