TCO'95
LH-18S01-BK
Congratulations! You have just
purchased a TCO'95 approved and
labelled product! Your choice has
provided you with a product
developed for professional use.
Your purchase has also contributed
to reducing the burden on the
environment and also, to the further
development of environmentally
adapted electronics products.
Why do we have
environmentally labelled computers?
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established
method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the
environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics
equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances
are used both in the products and during the manufacturing. Since it has
not been possible for the majority of electronics equipment to be recycled
in a satisfactory way, most of these potentially damaging substances
sooner or later enter Nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy
consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the
work (internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods
of conventional electricity generation have a negative effect on the
environment (acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive
waste, etc.), it is vital to conserve energy. Electronics equipment in offices
consume an enormous amount of energy since they are often left running
continuously.
What does labelling involve?
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'95 scheme which
provides for international and environmental labelling of personal

computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the
TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees),
Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation)
and NUTEK (The National Board for Industrial and Technical
Development in Sweden).
The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics,
usability, emission of electrical and magnetic fields, energy consumption
and electrical and fire safety.
The environmental demands concern restrictions on the presence and
use of heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs
(freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must
be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an
environmental plan which must be adhered to in each country where the
company implements its operational policy.
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or
display, after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power
consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The length of time
to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.
Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example,
in respect of the reduction of electric and magnetic fields, physical and
visual ergonomics and good usability.
On the back page of this folder, you will find a brief summary of the
environmental requirements met by this product. The complete
environmental criteria document may be ordered from:

TCO'95 is a co-operative project between TCO (The Swedish
Confederation of Professional Employees), Naturskyddsforeningen
(The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and NUTEK (The
National Board for Industrial and Technical Development in Sweden).
Environmental Requirements
Brominated flame retardants
Brominated flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables,
wires, casings and housings. In turn, they delay the spread of fire. Up to
thirty percent of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame
retardant substances. These are related to another group of environmental
toxins, PCBs, which are suspected to give rise to similar harm, including
reproductive damage in fisheating birds and mammals, due to the bio-
accumulative * processes. Flame retardants have been found in human
blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may
occur.
TCO'95 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than
25 grams must not contain organically bound chlorine and bromine.
Lead**
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and
capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and in higher doses, causes
lead poisoning.
TCO'95 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement
has yet been developed.
Cadmium**
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating
layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous
system and is toxic in high doses.
TCO'95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25
ppm (parts per million) of cadmium. The colour-generating layers of
display screens must not contain any cadmium.

Mercury**
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. Mercury
damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.
TCO'95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25
ppm (parts per million) of mercury. It also demands that no mercury is
present in any of the electrical or electronics components concerned
with the display unit. Mercury is, for the time being, permitted in the
back light system of flat panel monitors as there today is no commercially
available alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when a
mercury free alternative is available.
* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumul
CFCs (freons)
CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards
and in the manufacturing of expanded foam for packaging. CFCs break
down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere,
causing increased reception on Earth of ultraviolet light with consequent
increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma).
The relevant TCO'95 requirement: Neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be
used during the manufacturing of the product or its packaging.

Environmental requirements
Flame retardants
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires,
casings and housings. Their purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the
spread of fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist
of flame retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine
or chloride, and those flame retardants are chemically related to another
group of environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants
containing bromine or chloride and the PCBs are suspected of giving
rise to severe health effects, including reproductive damage in fish-eating
birds and mammals, due to the bio-accumulative* processes. Flame
retardants have been found in human blood and researchers fear that
disturbances in foetus development may occur.
The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing
more than 25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically
bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed
circuit boards since no substitutes are available.
Cadmium**
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-
generating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium damages
the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries, the colour-generating
layers of display screens and the electrical or electronics components must
not contain any cadmium.
Mercury**
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It
damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any
mercury. It also demands that mercury is not present in any of the electrical
or electronics components associated with the labelled unit.

CORRECT PLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE MONITOR
CAN REDUCE EYE, SHOULDER AND NECK FATIGUE. CHECK
THE FOLLOWING WHEN YOU POSITION THE MONITOR:
•
•
For optimum performance, allow 20 minutes for warm-up.
Adjust the monitor height so that the top of the screen is at or
slightly below eye level. Your eyes should look slightly down-
ward when viewing the middle of the screen.
•
Position your monitor no closer than 40 cm and no further away
than 70 cm from your eyes. The optimal distance is 53 cm for
the MultiSync LCD1810X monitor.
•
•
Rest your eyes periodically by focusing on an object at least 6
m away. Blink often.
Position the monitor at a 90° angle to windows and other light
sources to minimize glare and reflections. Adjust the monitor
tilt so that ceiling lights do not reflect on your screen.
•
•
•
If reflected light makes it hard for you to see your screen, use
an anti-glare filter.
Clean the LCD monitor surface with a lint-free, non-abrasive
cloth. Avoid using any cleaning solution or glass cleaner!
Adjust the monitor’s brightness and contrast controls to enhance
readability.
•
•
Use a document holder placed close to the screen.
Position whatever you are looking at most of the time (the screen
or reference material) directly in front of you to minimize turn-
ing your head while you are typing.
•

compatible computers. Your system has one of two configurations:
–
–
the video controller is built into the computer.
the video controller is in the form of a display card (sometimes
referred to as graphics card, video adapter or graphics board).
Both configurations have a video connector (or a CRT PORT on laptop
computers). If you are not sure which connector is the video connector,
refer to your computer or display card manual.
To attach the MultiSync LCD1810X monitor to your system,
follow these instructions:
1. Turn off the power of your computer.
2. For the PC with DVI digital output: Connect the DVI-D to
DVI-D signal cable to the connector of the display card in your
system (Figure A.1). Tighten all screws.

*1 Interpolated Resolutions: when resolutions are shown that are lower than the pixel
count of the LCD module, text may appear choppy or lines may appear to be bold.
This is normal and necessary for all current flat panel technologies, each dot on the
screen is actually one pixel, so to expand resolutions to full screen, an interpolation
of the resolution must be done. When the interpolated resolutions is not an exact
multiple of the native resolution, the mathematical interpolation necessary may cause
some lines to appear thicker than others.
*2 NEC cites recommended resolutions at 60 Hz for optimal display performance. The
number of colors that can be displayed at frequencies above 70 Hz decreases.
*3 The number of colors that can be displayed decreases.
*4 Active display area is dependent upon the signal timing.
Technical specifications are subject to change without notice.

Image persistence
Image persistence is when a “ghost” of an image
remains on the screen even after the monitor has been
turned off. Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors’
image persistence is not permanent. To alleviate
image persistence, turn the monitor off for as long as
an image was displayed. If an image was on the
monitor for one hour and a ”ghost” of that image
remains, the monitor should be turned off for one
hour to erase the image.
NOTE: As with all personal display devices, NEC
recommends using a screen saver at regular intervals
whenever the screen is idle.
