				Auto Setup   
					Auto Setup   
					Before carrying out this   
					section, it is very   
					When you first use your monitor you must perform Auto Setup. This   
					procedure sets up your monitor to process the video signals from your   
					computer without image discoloration or smearing. After you perform Auto   
					Setup, the settings are stored and used each time you turn on the monitor.   
					important that The Setup   
					Diskette for Windows 95 or   
					Windows 98/Windows 2000/   
					Windows NT has been run.   
					(see page 6)   
					In order to optimise the displayed image a set-up utility is provided on the IBM   
					Monitor Installation Diskette. Operation of the utility is dependent on the   
					operating system on your PC. For correct operation locate the operating   
					system on your PC from the table below and follow the appropriate   
					instructions. You may choose to run AUTO SETUP for each operating system   
					that you use. This means that if you sometimes use your monitor while   
					running any version of Windows and sometimes also use it from within DOS   
					(not a DOS window), you must run AUTO SETUP for both Windows and DOS.   
					You may run versions of AUTO SETUP in any order.   
					The Setup Utility   
					included on the setup   
					diskette is for displaying do   
					patterns. They do not replace   
					or modify the display dirver.   
					The Auto Setup instructions   
					require the monitor to be   
					warmed up for 15 minutes.   
					This is not required for normal   
					operation.

				Further Information   
					Display modes   
					The display mode the monitor uses is controlled by the computer. Therefore,   
					you should refer to your computer documentation for details on how to   
					change display modes.   
					The image size, position and shape may change when the display mode   
					changes. This is normal and the image can be readjusted using AUTO SETUP   
					and the monitor controls.   
					Unlike CRT monitors, which require a high refresh rate to minimize flicker,   
					TFT technology is inherently flicker-free. If possible, configure your computer   
					for 1024 × 768 addressability at 60Hz vertical refresh rate.

				Power Management   
					If your computer has   
					previously been used   
					To benefit from power management, the monitor must be used in conjunction   
					with a computer that implements the Video Electronics Standards Association   
					(VESA) Display Power Management Signalling (DPMS) Standard.   
					with a CRT monitor and is   
					currently configured to a   
					display mode outside the   
					range that the Flat Panel   
					monitor can display, you   
					may need to re-attach the   
					CRT monitor temporarily   
					until youhave re-configured   
					the computer, preferably to   
					1024 x 768 at 60Hz.   
					The power management feature is invoked when the computer recognizes   
					that you have not used your mouse or keyboard for a user-definable period.   
					There are several states as described in the table below.   
					As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, IBM has determined that this product meets the   
					ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency.   
					IBM recommends that you switch off your monitor at the end of each working   
					day, or whenever you expect to leave it unused for long periods during the   
					day.
