Precautions  
• Use an appropriate power cord for your local power  
supply.  
Installation  
• Prevent internal heat build-up by allowing adequate air  
circulation. Do not place the monitor on surfaces (rugs,  
blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that  
may block the ventilation holes.  
Examples of plug types:  
• Do not install the monitor near heat sources such as  
radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct  
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.  
• Do not place the monitor near equipment which generates

• Before disconnecting the power cord, wait at least 30  
seconds after turning off the power to allow the static  
electricity on the CRT display surface to discharge.  
• After the power has been turned on, the CRT is  
demagnetized (degaussed) for about 5 seconds. This  
generates a strong magnetic field around the metal frame,  
which may affect the data stored on magnetic tapes and  
disks near the bezel. Place magnetic recording equipment,  
tapes and disks away from this monitor.  
Maintenance  
• Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth  
lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not  
use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent,  
such as alcohol or benzine.  
• 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.  
The outlet should be installed near the equipment  
and be easily accessible.  
• 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 screen’s coating.  
Transportation  
When you transport this monitor for repair or shipment, use  
the original carton and packing materials.

Damper Wires  
This monitor complies with the DDC 1 and DDC2B  
Display Data Channel (DDC) standards of VESA.  
When a DDC1 host system is connected, the monitor  
synchronizes with the V. CLK in accordance with the VESA  
standards and outputs the EDID (Extended Display  
Identification Data) to the data line.  
When viewing a white background, very thin horizontal  
lines may be visible on the screen as shown below. These  
lines are the shadows of the damper wires and are  
characteristic of CRTs that use aperture grilles. The wires  
are attached to the aperture grille on the inside of the  
Trinitron tube and prevent the vibration of the aperture  
grille.  
When a DDC2B host system is connected, the monitor  
automatically switches to the appropriate standard.

• Adjust the size or centering (pages 5 – 6).  
• Some video modes do not fill the screen to the edges. This problem tends to occur with  
certain video boards.  
Screen image is not centered  
or sized properly  
• Adjust the geometry (pages 6 – 7).  
Edges of the image are  
curved  
• Adjust the convergence (pages 9 – 10).  
White lines show red or blue  
shadows at edges  
• Adjust the contrast and brightness (page 4).  
Picture is fuzzy  
• Degauss the monitor (page 10).  
If you place equipment which generates a magnetic field, such as a loudspeaker, near  
the monitor, or you change the direction of the monitor, color may lose uniformity.  
The degauss function demagnetizes the metal frame of the CRT to obtain a neutral  
field for uniform color reproduction. If a second degauss cycle is needed, allow a  
minimum interval of 20 minutes for the best result.  
• If red or blue shadows appear along the edges of images, adjust the convergence  
(pages 9 – 10).  
• If the moire is cancelled, the picture may become fuzzy. Decrease the moire  
cancellation effect (pages 9 – 10).  
• Isolate and eliminate any potential sources of electric or magnetic fields. Common  
causes for this symptom are electric fans, fluorescent lighting or laser printers.  
• If you have another monitor close to this monitor, increase the distance between them  
to reduce the interference.  
Picture bounces or has wavy  
oscillations  
• Try plugging the monitor into a different AC outlet, preferably on a different circuit.  
• Try the monitor on a different computer in a different room.  
• Set the refresh rate on the computer to obtain the best possible picture by referring to  
your computer’s manual.  
Picture is flickering  
• Eliminate the use of video cable extensions and/or video switch boxes if this symptom  
occurs. Excessive cable length or a weak connection can produce this symptom.  
Picture appears to be  
ghosting  
• Cancel the moire (pages 9 – 10).  
Wavy or elliptical (moire)  
pattern is visible  
The moire may be modified depending on the connected computer.  
• Due to the relationship between resolution, monitor dot pitch and the pitch of some  
image patterns, certain screen backgrounds sometimes show moire. Change your  
desktop pattern.  
• These wires stabilize the vertically striped aperture grille (page 14). This aperture grille  
allows more light to pass through to the screen giving the Trinitron CRT more color  
and brightness.  
Two fine horizontal lines  
(wires) are visible  
• When the power is turned on, the auto-degauss cycle is activated. While the auto-  
degauss cycle is activated, a hum may be heard. The same hum is heard when the  
monitor is manually degaussed. This is not a malfunction.  
Hum is heard right after the  
power is turned on

Statement of Limited Warranty U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico  
The warranties provided by IBM in this Statement of Limited Warranty apply only to Machines you originally purchase for  
your use, and not for resale, from IBM or your reseller. The term “Machine” means an IBM machine, its features, conversions,  
upgrades, elements, or accessories, or any combination of them. Unless IBM specifies otherwise, the following warranties  
apply only in the country where you acquire the Machine. If you have any questions, contact IBM or your reseller.  
Machine:  
P72 M/T 6556  
Warranty Period*: 3 years.  
* Contact your place of purchase for warranty service information  
Production Status  
Each Machine is manufactured from new parts, or new and used parts. In some cases, the Machine may not be new and may  
have been previously installed. Regardless of the Machine’s production status, IBM’s warranty terms apply.  
The IBM Warranty for Machines  
IBM warrants that each Machine 1) is free from defects in materials and workmanship and 2) conforms to IBM’s Official  
Published Specifications. The warranty period for a Machine is a specified, fixed period commencing on its Date of  
Installation. The date on your receipt is the Date of Installation, unless IBM or your reseller informs you otherwise.  
During the warranty period IBM or your reseller, if authorized by IBM, will provide warranty service under the type of service  
designated for the Machine and will manage and install engineering changes that apply to the Machine.  
For IBM or your reseller to provide warranty service for a feature, conversion, or upgrade, IBM or your reseller may require  
that the Machine on which it is installed be 1) for certain Machines, the designated, serial-numbered Machine and 2) at an  
engineering-change level compatible with the feature, conversion, or upgrade. Many of these transactions involve the removal  
of parts and their return to IBM. You represent that all removed parts are genuine and unaltered. A part that replaces a  
removed part will assume the warranty service status of the replaced part.  
If a Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period, IBM or your reseller will repair it or replace it with  
one that is at least functionally equivalent, without charge. The replacement may not be new, but will be in good working  
order. If IBM or your reseller is unable to repair or replace the Machine, you may return it to your place of purchase and your  
money will be refunded.  
If you transfer a Machine to another user, warranty service is available to that user for the remainder of the warranty period.  
You should give your proof of purchase and this Statement to that user. However, for Machines which have a life-time  
warranty, this warranty is not transferable.  
Warranty Service  
To obtain warranty service for the Machine, you should contact your reseller or call IBM. In the United States, call IBM at 1-  
800-772-2227. In Canada, call IBM at 1-800-565-3344. You may be required to present proof of purchase.  
IBM or your reseller will provide certain types of repair and exchange service, either at your location or at IBM’s or your  
reseller’s service center, to restore a Machine to good working order.  
When a type of service involves the exchange of a Machine or part, the item IBM or your reseller replaces becomes its property  
and the replacement becomes yours. You represent that all removed items are genuine and unaltered. The replacement may  
not be new, but will be in good working order and at least functionally equivalent to the item replaced. The replacement  
assumes the warranty service status of the replaced item. Before IBM or your reseller exchanges a Machine or part, you agree  
to remove all features, parts, options, alterations, and attachments not under warranty service. You also agree to ensure that  
the Machine is free of any legal obligations or restrictions that prevent its exchange.  
You agree to:  
1. obtain authorization from the owner to have IBM or your reseller service a Machine that you do not own; and  
2. where applicable, before service is provided -  
a) follow the problem determination, problem analysis, and service request procedures that IBM or your reseller provide,  
b) secure all programs, data, and funds contained in a Machine, and  
c) inform IBM or your reseller of changes in a Machine’s location.  
IBM is responsible for loss of, or damage to, your Machine while it is 1) in IBM’s possession or 2) in transit in those cases  
where IBM is responsible for the transportation charges.

Congratulations! You have just purchased a TCO’95 approved and labelled product! Your choice has provided you with a product  
developed for professional use. Your purchase has also contributed to reducing the burden on the environment and also, to the further  
development of environmentally adapted electronics products.  
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?  
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the  
environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful  
substances are used both in the products and during the manufacturing. Since it has not been possible for the majority of electronics  
equipment to be recycled in a satisfactory way, most of these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter Nature.  
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both  
the work (internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of conventional electricity generation have a negative effect on  
the environment (acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste, etc.), it is vital to conserve energy. Electronics equipment in  
offices consume an enormous amount of energy since they are often left running continuously.  
What does labelling involve?  
This product meets the requirements for the TCO’95 scheme which provides for international and environmental labelling of personal  
computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees),  
Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and NUTEK (The National Board for Industrial and Technical  
Development in Sweden).  
The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics, usability, emission of electrical and magnetic fields, energy  
consumption and electrical and fire safety.  
The environmental demands concern restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame  
retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer  
is obliged to have an environmental plan which must be adhered to in each country where the company implements its operational policy.  
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display, after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power  
consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The length of time to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.  
Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in respect of the reduction of electric and magnetic fields, physical  
and visual ergonomics and good usability.  
On the next page, you will find a brief summary of the environmental requirements met by this product. The complete environmental  
criteria document may be ordered from:

Environmental Requirements  
Brominated flame retardants  
Brominated flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings and housings. In turn, they delay the spread of fire.  
Up to thirty percent of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame retardant substances. These are related to another group of  
environmental toxins, PCBs, which are suspected to give rise to similar harm, including reproductive damage in fisheating 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.  
TCO’95 demand requires that plastic components weighing more that 25 grams must not contain organically bound chlorine and  
bromine.  
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.  
TCO’95 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.  
Cadmium**  
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colourgenerating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium damages the  
nervous system and is toxic in high doses.  
TCO’95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25 ppm (parts per million) of cadmium. The colourgenerating  
layers of display screens must not contain any cadmium.  
Mercury**  
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. Mercury damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.  
TCO’95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25 ppm (parts per million) of mercury. It also demands that no  
mercury is present in any of the electrical or electronics components concerned with the display unit.  
CFCs (freons)  
CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards and in the manufacturing of expanded foam for packaging. CFCs  
break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing increased reception on Earth of ultraviolet light with  
consequent increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma).  
The relevant TCO’95 requirement: Neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be used during the manufacturing of the product or its packaging.  
* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within organisms  
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative
