Setup  
Important: Before connecting the monitor, turn off the computer and attached devices. Also, ensure the power at the  
electrical outlet matches the power requirements of the monitor. Refer to the Specifications section on page 14 for  
more details.  
Connecting your monitor  
Step 1. Connect the signal cable to the video port on  
the back of your computer. This port might be  
directly attached to your computer (figure A),  
or it might be part of a video adapter card (fig-  
ure B).  
Step 2. Connect the power cord to the monitor first,  
then firmly insert the plug into a properly  
grounded electrical outlet.  
Step 3. Turn on the monitor, and then the computer.  
If your monitor does not seem to be working correctly,  
refer to the Troubleshooting section starting on  
page 15 for help.

Orientation  
Choose a position that gives the least reflection from  
lights and windows, usually at a right angle to any  
windows. The monitor should be positioned directly in  
front of you so that you do not have to twist your body.  
Tilt the monitor to a comfortable viewing angle.  
Microsoft and Windows are trademarks of Microsoft  
Corporation in the United States or other countries or  
both.  
Workplace Preparation  
Positioning the Monitor  
Choose a suitable place to position the monitor where it  
is not near fluorescent desk lighting or any equipment  
that produces magnetic fields that could cause  
interference. Ensure that the furniture or equipment can  
support the weight of the monitor. Allow at least 2 inches  
(50mm) ventilation space around the monitor.  
Height  
The monitor should be positioned so that the top of the  
screen is slightly below your eye level when you sit at  
your workstation.

Screen settings  
Working Practices  
Set the screen brightness and contrast to a comfortable  
level. You may have to adjust this as the lighting  
changes during the day. Many application programs let  
you select color combinations which can help you to  
view in comfort.  
Rest  
Take regular breaks. Vary your posture, and stand up  
and stretch occasionally as prolonged use of computer  
workstations can be tiring.  
Back  
You should sit back in the chair and use the backrest.  
Hands  
Use a light touch on the keyboard, keeping your hands  
and fingers relaxed. Allow a space in front of the  
keyboard to rest your wrists when not typing. Consider  
using a wristpad.  
Eyesight  
Working with monitors, in common with any prolonged  
close work, can be visually demanding. Look away from  
the screen periodically and have your eyesight checked  
regularly.
