Do not touch LCD panel surface while transporting, mounting and setting.
Applying pressure on the LCD panel can cause serious damage.
Image Persistence: Image persistence is when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image remains visible on the screen.
Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not permanent, but constant images being displayed for a long period
of time should be avoided.
To alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as the previous image was displayed. For example, if an image
was on the monitor for one hour and a residual image remains, the monitor should be turned off for one hour to erase the image.
NOTE: As with all personal display devices, NEC DISPLAY SOLUTIONS recommends using a moving screen saver at regular
intervals whenever the screen is idle or turning off the monitor when not in use.
English-3
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 the display to 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 downward when viewing the middle of the screen.
•
•
•
Position your monitor no closer than 40 cm (15.75 inches) and no further away than
70 cm (27.56 inches) from your eyes. The optimal distance is 50 cm (19.69 inches).
Rest your eyes periodically for 5 to 10 minutes for every 1 hour by focusing on an object
at least 20 feet away.
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
turning your head while you are typing.
•
•
Avoid displaying fixed patterns on the monitor for long periods of time to avoid image persistence (after-image effects).
Blink often. Eye exercise helps to reduce eye strain. Please contact your ophthalmologist. Get regular eye checkups.
Ergonomics
To realize the maximum ergonomics benefits, we recommend the following:
•
To avoid eye fatigue, adjust the brightness to a moderate setting. Place a sheet of white paper next to the LCD screen for
luminance reference.
•
•
•
•
•
Do not position the Contrast control to its maximum setting.
Use the preset Size and Position controls with standard signals.
Use the preset Color Setting.
Use non-interlaced signals with a vertical refresh rate of 60 Hz.
Do not use primary color blue on a dark background, as it is difficult to see and may produce eye fatigue due to insufficient
contrast.
Cleaning the LCD Panel
•
•
•
•
When the LCD is dusty, please gently wipe with a soft cloth.
Please do not rub the LCD panel with hard or coarse material.
Please do not apply pressure to the LCD surface.
Please do not use OA cleaner as it will cause deterioration or discoloration on the LCD surface.
Cleaning the Cabinet
•
•
•
Unplug the power supply
Gently wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth
To clean the cabinet, dampen the cloth with a neutral detergent and water, wipe the cabinet and follow with a dry cloth.
NOTE:
Many plastics are used on the surface of the cabinet. DO NOT clean with benzene, thinner, alkaline detergent,
alcoholic system detergent, glass cleaner, wax, polish cleaner, soap powder, or insecticide. Do not touch rubber or
vinyl to the cabinet for a long time. These types of fluids and fabrics can cause the paint to deteriorate, crack or peel.

FULL: The image is expanded to full screen regardless of the resolution.
ASPECT: The image is expanded without changing the aspect ratio.
OFF: The image is not expanded.
NOTE: FULL works only when MULTI PICTURE is OFF.
UNIFORMITY
This function electronically compensates for the slight variations in the white uniformity level as well as for deviations
in color that may occur throughout the display area of the screen. These variations are characteristic of LCD panel
technology. This function improves the color and evens out the luminance uniformity of the display.
NOTE: Using the UNIFORMITY feature does reduce the overall peak luminance of the display. If greater luminance is
desired over the uniform performance of the display, then UNIFORMITY should be turned off. “ON” produces
a better effect, but may also reduce contrast ratio.

Image Persistence
•
Image persistence is when a residual or “ghost” image of a previous image remains visible on the screen. Unlike CRT
monitors, LCD monitors’ image persistence is not permanent, but constant images being displayed for a long period
of time should be avoided. To alleviate image persistence, turn off the monitor for as long as the previous image was
displayed. For example, if an image was on the monitor for one hour and a residual image remains, the monitor should
be turned off for one hour to erase the image.
NOTE:
As with all personal display devices, NEC DISPLAY SOLUTIONS recommends using a moving screen saver at
regular intervals whenever the screen is idle or turning off the monitor when not in use.
Message “OUT OF RANGE” is displayed (screen is either blank or shows rough images only)

Using the Auto Brightness function
The brightness of the LCD screen can be set to increase or decrease depending on the amount of ambient lighting within the
room. If the room is bright, the monitor becomes correspondingly bright. If the room is dim, then the monitor will dim accordingly.
The purpose of this function is to make the viewing experience more comfortable to the eye in a variety of lighting conditions.
SETUP
Use the following procedures to select the Brightness Range that the monitor will use when the Auto Brightness function is
activated.
1. Set the BRIGHTNESS level. This is the brightness level that the monitor will go up to when the ambient lighting level is
highest. Select this setting when the room is at its brightest.
Select “1” or “3” in the AUTO BRIGHTNESS menu (Figure 1). Then use the front Keys to move the cursor up to the
BRIGHTNESS setting. Choose the desired brightness level (Figure 2).
