Clean the screen with a soft cloth. If you use a glass cleaning  
liquid, do not use any type of cleaner containing an anti-static  
solution or similar additive as this may scratch the screens  
coating.  
Do not rub, touch, or tap the surface of the screen with sharp or  
abrasive items such as a ballpoint pen or screwdriver. This type  
of contact may result in a scratched picture tube.

for 100 to 120 V ac  
for 200 to 240 V ac  
for 240 V ac only  
Before disconnecting the power cord, wait at least 30 seconds  
after turning off the power to allow the static electricity on the  
screens surface to discharge.  
After the power is turned on, the screen is demagnetized  
(degaussed) for a few seconds. This generates a strong  
magnetic field around the screen which may affect the data  
stored on magnetic tapes and diskettes place near the monitor.  
Be sure to keep magnetic recording equipment, tapes, and  
diskettes away from this monitor.  
Transportation  
When you transport this monitor for repair or shipment, use the

Adjusting the color of the picture  
(COLOR)  
The SCREEN settings allow you to degauss (demagnetize) the  
monitor manually and adjust the picture quality by controlling the  
moire.  
• If the color is not uniform or the picture is fuzzy, degauss the  
monitor (DEGAUSS).  
The COLOR settings allow you to adjust the picture’s color  
temperature by changing the color level of the white color field.  
Colors appear reddish if the temperature is low, and bluish if the  
temperature is high. This adjustment is useful for matching the  
monitor’s color to a printed picture’s colors.  
• If elliptical or wavy patterns appear on the screen, cancel the  
moire (CANCEL MOIRE).  
The monitor is automatically demagnetized (degaussed) when the  
power is turned on.  
The screen is degaussed for about 2 seconds. If a second degauss  
cycle is needed, allow a minimum interval of 20 minutes for the  
best result.  
x Select the COLOR mode  
There are 4 types of adjustment modes, PRESET, VARIABLE,  
EXPERT, and sRGB. The default setting is PRESET mode which  
can be adjusted to 9300K, 6500K, or 5000K.

desired mode in the COLOR ( ) menu. Then adjust the selected  
mode in each COLOR MODE ( ) menu.

Technical Features  
Troubleshooting  
Before contacting technical support, refer to this section.  
Preset and user modes  
If thin lines appear on your screen  
(damper wires)  
When the monitor receives an input signal, it automatically  
matches the signal to one of the factory preset modes stored in the  
monitor’s memory to provide a high quality picture at the center  
of the screen. (See page 18 for a list of the factory preset modes.)  
For input signals that do not match one of the factory preset  
modes, the digital Multiscan technology of this monitor ensures  
that a clear picture appears on the screen for any timing in the  
monitor’s frequency range (horizontal: 30 – 107 kHz, vertical: 48  
– 170 Hz). If the picture is adjusted, the adjustment data is stored  
as a user mode and automatically recalled whenever the same  
input signal is received.  
The visible lines on your screen especially when the background  
screen color is light (usually white), are normal for the Trinitron  
monitor. This is not a malfunction. These are shadows from the  
damper wires used to stabilize the aperture grille. The aperture  
grille is the essential element that makes a Trinitron picture tube  
unique by allowing more light to reach the screen, resulting in a  
brighter, more detailed picture.  
Damper wires  
Note for Windows users  
For Windows users, check your graphics board manual or the  
utility program which comes with your graphics board and select  
the highest available refresh rate to maximize monitor  
performance.

This monitor meets the power-saving guidelines set by VESA and  
ENERGY STAR. If no signal is input to the monitor from your  
computer, the monitor will automatically reduce power  
consumption as shown below.  
If there is something wrong with the input signal, one of the  
following messages appears on the screen.  
If NO SIGNAL appears on section 1  
This indicates that no signal is input.

2 The remedies  
The following messages appear on the screen.  
• If ACTIVATE BY COMPUTER appears on the screen, try  
pressing any key on the computer or moving the mouse, and  
confirm that your computer’s graphics board is completely  
seated in the correct bus slot.  
• If CHECK SIGNAL CABLE appears on the screen, check  
that the monitor is correctly connected to the computer  
(page 4).

Check these items  
If the 1 (power) indicator is not lit  
Check that the power cord is properly connected.  
Check that the 1 (power) button is in the onposition.  
If the NO SIGNAL message appears Check that the video signal cable is properly connected and all plugs are firmly seated in  
on the screen, or if the

the mouse.  
Check that the computers power is on.”  
Check that the graphic board is completely seated in the proper bus slot.  
If the OUT OF SCAN RANGE  
message appears on the screen  
xProblems caused by the connected computer or other equipment  
Check that the video frequency range is within that specified for the monitor. If you  
replaced an old monitor with this monitor, reconnect the old monitor and adjust the  
frequency range to the following.  
Horizontal: 30 107 kHz  
Vertical: 48 170 Hz

Isolate and eliminate any potential sources of electric or magnetic fields such as other  
monitors, laser printers, fluorescent lighting, televisions, or electric fans.  
Move the monitor away from power lines or place a magnetic shield near the monitor.  
Try plugging the monitor into a different AC outlet, preferably on a different circuit.  
Try turning the monitor 90° to the left or right.  
xProblems caused by the connected computer or other equipment  
Check your graphics board manual for the proper monitor setting.  
Confirm that the graphics mode and the frequency of the input signal are supported by this  
monitor (page 18). Even if the frequency is within the proper range, some graphics boards  
may have a sync pulse that is too narrow for the monitor to sync correctly.  
Adjust the computers refresh rate (vertical frequency) to obtain the best possible picture.  
Picture is fuzzy  
Adjust the brightness and contrast (page 7).  
Degauss the monitor* (page 10).  
Adjust the degree of moire cancellation until the moire is minimal, or set CANCEL  
* If a second degauss cycle is needed, allow a minimum interval of 20 minutes for the best result. A humming noise may be heard, but this is not a  
malfunction.

* Recommended horizontal and vertical timing condition  
• Horizontal sync width duty should be more than 4.8% of  
total horizontal time or 0.67 µs, whichever is larger.  
If all four color bars appear (white, red, green, blue), the monitor  
is working properly. Reconnect the video input cables and check  
the condition of your computer.  
• Horizontal blanking width should be more than 2.4 µsec.  
• Vertical blanking width should be more than 400 µsec.  
If the color bars do not appear, there is a potential monitor failure.  
Inform your authorized technical support of the monitor’s  
condition.  
Design and specifications are subject to change without notice.  
x If the 1 (power) indicator is flashing orange  
Press the 1 (power) button twice to turn the monitor off  
and then on.  
If the 1 (power) indicator lights up green, the monitor is working  
properly.  
If the 1 (power) indicator is still flashing, there is a potential  
monitor failure. Count the number of seconds between orange  
flashes of the 1 (power) indicator and inform your authorized  
technical support of the monitor’s condition. Be sure to note the  
model name and serial number of your monitor. Also note the  
make and model of your computer and graphic board.
