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 elevant 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 color-  
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.  
CFCs (freons)  
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufacture and assembly of the  
product. CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards. CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the  
ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased risks of skin cancer  
(malignant melanoma) as a consequence.  
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. The relevant TCO'99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been  
developed.  
* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms  
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.  
FCC Statement Warning  
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC  
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This  
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in accordance with the  
instruction, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not  
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be  
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the  
following measures:  
. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
. Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.  
. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.  
. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.  
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturers may void the user's authority to operate this  
equipment.  
NOTE  
A shielded-type signal cord is required in order to meet the FCC emission limits and also to prevent interference to the radio and  
television reception. It is essential that only the supplied signal cord be used.

Installation instruction  
Assembling the monitor  
1. Position the monitor on top of the stand.  
2.Connect the stand into the neck of monitor along the track.  
Detaching the monitor  
Important  
First, find a clean, flat surface to place the monitor after removing it from the stand. Place a clean dry cloth under the monitor to  
protect it further. Pull the monitor slightly up and away from the stand.  
Adjusting the Viewing Angle  
The viewing angle of the monitor ranges from forward 5° to backward 20°.  
Caution: Do not force the LCD Monitor over its maximum viewing angle settings as stated above. Attempting this will result in  
damaging the Monitor and Monitor stand.  
Connecting the Devices  
Please shut down the power of computer and monitor  
before you do the connection.

Troubleshooting  
This LCD Monitor has pre-adjusted using factory standard VGA timings. Due to the output timing differences among various VGA  
cards in the market, users may initially experience an unstable or unclear display whenever a new display mode or new VGA card  
is selected.  
Attention  
This LCD Monitor Supports Multiple VGA Modes. Refer to the Standard Timing Table for a listing of modes supported by this LCD  
Monitor.  
PROBLEM Picture is unclear and unstable  
The picture is unclear and unstable, please perform the following steps :  
1. Enter PC to "Shut Down Windows" status while you're in MS-Windows environment.  
2. Check the screen to see if there's any black vertical stripes appear. If there are,  
take advantage of the "Clock" function in OSD menu and adjust (by increment or decrement numbers)  
until those bars disappear.  
3. Move to "FOCUS" function in OSD menu again and adjust the monitor screen to its most clear display.  
4. Click "No" on "Shut Down Windows" and back to the normal PC operating environment.  
PROBLEM There is no picture on LCD Monitor  
If there's no picture on the LCD Monitor, please perform the following steps:  
1. Make sure the power indicator on the LCD Monitor is ON, all connections are secured,  
and the system is running on the correct timing. Refer to Chapter 3 for information on timing.  
2. Turn off the LCD Monitor and then turn it back on again. If there is still no picture,  
press the Adjustment Control button several times.  
3. If step 2 doesn't work, connect your PC system to another external CRT.  
If your PC system Functions properly with a CRT Monitor but it does not function with the LCD Monitor,  
the output timing of the VGA card may be out of the LCD's synchronous range.  
Please change to an alternative mode listed in the Standard Timing Table or replace the VGA card,  
and then repeat steps 1 and 2.  
PROBLEM There is no picture on LCD Monitor  
If you have chosen an output timing that is outside of the LCD Monitor's synchronous range (Horizontal: 24 ~ 80 KHz and Vertical:  
56 ~ 75 Hz), the OSD will display a "Out of Range" message. Choose a mode that is supported by your LCD Monitor. Also, if the  
signal cable is not connected to LCD monitor at all or properly, the monitor screen will display a message "No Input Signal".  
Caution: Do not attempt to service the monitor yourself or open the computer  
yourself. Please refer all servicing to qualified service personnel if  
the problems cannot be solved in "Troubleshooting" section.
