For Your Safety
AOC 7F-SLK
• The monitor is equipped with a three-pronged
grounded plug, a plug with a third (grounding)
pin. As a safety feature, this plug will only fit into
a grounded power outlet. If your outlet does not
accommodate the three-wire plug, have an
electrician install the correct outlet, or use an
adapter to ground the appliance safely. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the grounded plug.
Precautions
• Do not use the monitor near water, e.g. near a
bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub,
swimming pool or in a wet basement.
• Do not place the monitor on an unstable cart,
stand, or table. If the monitor falls, it can injure a
person and cause serious damage to the
appliance. Use only a cart or stand
• Unplug the unit during a lightning storm or when
it will not be used for long periods of time.
This will protect the monitor from damage due to
power surges.
recommended by the manufacturer or sold with
the monitor. If you mount the monitor on a wall
or shelf, use a mounting kit approved by the
manufacturer and follow the kit instructions.
• Do not overload power strips and extension
cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric
shock.
• Slots and openings in the back and bottom of
the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To
ensure reliable operation of the monitor and to
protect it from overheating, be sure these
openings are not blocked or covered. Do not
place the monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar
surface. Do not place the monitor near or over a
radiator or heat register. Do not place the
monitor in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper
ventilation is provided.
• Never push any object into the slot on the
monitor cabinet. It could short circuit parts
causing a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquids on the monitor.
• Do not attempt to service the monitor yourself;
opening or removing covers can expose you to
dangerous voltage and other hazards. Please
refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
• The monitor should be operated only with the
type of power source indicated on the label. If
you are not sure of the type of power supplied to
your home, consult your dealer or local power
company.
• To ensure satisfactory operation, use the
monitor only with UL-listed computers which
have appropriately configured receptacles
marked between 100 - 240 V AC, Min. 3.5A.
• Disconnect the power cord to stop the power
supply to the monitor.
• The wall socket should be installed near the
equipment and should be easily accessible.

Plug & Play DDC1/2B Feature
Windows INF Driver File
This monitor is equipped with VESA DDC1/2B
capabilities according to the VESA DDC
STANDARD. It allows the monitor to inform the
host system of its identity and, depending on the
level of DDC used, communicate additional
information about its display capabilities. The
communication channel is defined in two levels,
DDC1 and DDC2B.
Most computers will automatically configure your
monitor to work with your computer. For optimal
viewing of your monitor, download the AOC
monitor driver.
Follow these steps:
2. Click on SUPPORT to open the drivers web
page.
The DDC1 is a unidirectional data channel from the
display to the host that continuously transmits
EDID information. The DDC2B is a bidirectional
data channel based on the I²C protocol. The host
can request EDID information over the DDC2B.
3. Follow the directions on the web page to
download and install the driver on your
computer.
