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  
is 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.

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 cardis 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  
a message "No Input Signal".  
display  
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.
