Important Safety Instructions
Important Safety Instructions
Before you plug in your new monitor, read these important safety
instructions.
WARNING
Connect the monitor only to a grounded power outlet. Use the power
cord supplied with the monitor or one with a properly grounded plug.
Ensure the cable meets your country’s standards for safety.
This monitor operates on all power systems, including “IT” power
systems. To completely disconnect power at the monitor, remove the
power cord from the power outlet. Ensure that the power outlet is
easily accessible.
The monitor is quite heavy (the weight is shown in the technical
specifications). We recommend you ask the assistance of a second
person when lifting or moving it.
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover (or back). No
user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service
personnel.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral
triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
“dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert
the user to the presence of important operating and servicing
instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

Setting the Amount of Displayed Information
To set the amount of displayed information, change the screen
resolution of your PC. The higher the screen resolution, the more
information you can see on the screen. It is recommended that you use
a resolution of 1024 × 768 at 85 Hz or 1280×1024 at 60 Hz. This gives
easy-to-read characters, a large amount of displayed information, and a
flicker-free image.
You can make adjustments to the displayed image and they are
automatically saved for the resolution you are using. For example, if
you adjust your monitor when working in SVGA those settings are
saved for SVGA. If you then work in VGA and change the image
settings, they are saved for VGA. The next time you switch back to
SVGA, your previous settings are used automatically.
DISPLAY TIMING To find out which resolution and refresh rate your monitor is currently
running at, highlight the DISPLAY TIMING icon
in the main menu.
The current resolution is displayed.
To find out which resolutions and refresh rates are supported by your
monitor, highlight
in the main menu then press
to access the
list of available resolutions. Use the
and
adjustment controls to
scroll through the list. Alternatively, you can also refer to “What Video
Modes are Supported” on page 11. To change the screen resolution,
please refer to the manual that came with your PC or your operating
system documentation, if necessary. To set the image refresh rate (also
known as the vertical frequency), refer to the manual that came with
your PC or your operating system.
Your monitor has a Plug and Play capability (VESA DDC1/2B+
standard) that enables it to identify itself to suitably equipped HP PCs.
This will automatically give you the best refresh rate for the resolution
that you have set. Also, by using the appropriate software (when
available), you can adjust the monitor’s settings directly from your PC.

HP 17” Color Monitor User’s Guide
Using Your Monitor
Minimizing Eye Strain
To avoid screen flicker and minimize eye strain, use the highest
supported image refresh rate for the chosen resolution. It is
recommended that you use a refresh rate of 85 Hz. The image refresh
rate is the number of times per second that the image is refreshed.
Minimizing Energy Consumption
If your PC supports VESA monitor power management (available on
many HP PCs), you can minimize the power consumed by the monitor.
There are two power saving modes:
• Suspend mode1 (uses less than 10 W). In this mode, the monitor’s
front panel indicator light blinks rapidly in green.
• Sleep mode2 (uses less than 5 W). In this mode, the monitor’s front
panel indicator light blinks slowly in green.
To set these power saving modes, refer to the manual that came with
your PC. If your screen is not displaying an image, check the front
panel indicator light first — your monitor may be in a power saving
mode.
1. Suspend mode is activated when horizontal sync is cut by the video controller.
2. Sleep mode is activated when both vertical and horizontal sync are cut by the video
controller.

Care and Cleaning
Care and Cleaning
Do not place anything on top of the monitor. Doing so may block the
monitor vents and cause damage to the monitor due to overheating.
Do not let liquid get on or into the monitor.
To maximize screen life and prevent damage to the picture tube (such
as burned phosphor due to leaving the same image on the screen for a
long time), it is recommended that you:
• Use the monitor power management system (on HP PCs) or a screen
saver program.
• Avoid setting contrast and brightness to their maximum levels for
prolonged periods.
• If you do not have a power management system or a screen saver
program, switch the monitor off or reduce the brightness and
contrast to minimum levels when the monitor is not in use.
Your monitor has an anti-glare, anti-static screen coating. To prevent
damage to the monitor screen’s coating, use a regular household glass
cleaner when cleaning the screen. To clean the screen:
1 Switch the monitor off and remove the power plug (pull the plug, not
the cable).
2 Wet a soft cotton cloth with the cleaning solution and gently wipe the
screen. Do not spray cleaner onto the screen because the cleaner
may drip inside the monitor.
3 Dry with a clean, soft cotton cloth.
Do not use cleaning solutions containing fluoride, acids, or alkalis.

Radiation emitted by this product is less than 0.1 mR/hr (1uSv/hr) at a distance of 10 centimeters from the
surface of the cathode ray tube. The x-ray radiation primarily depends on the characteristics of the cathode ray
tube and its associated low voltage and high voltage circuitry. Internal controls have been adjusted to ensure
safe operation. Only qualified personnel should perform any internal adjustments as specified in the service
manual for this product.
Replace the cathode ray tube with an identical CRT only.
