before you set up your monitor.  
Orientation

Working Practices  
This section gives  
advice on how you can  
work comfortably and reduce  
fatigue.  
Rest  
Take regular breaks. Vary your posture, stand up and stretch occasionally as  
prolonged use of computer workstations can be tiring.  
Back  
Sit back in your chair and use the backrest.  
Hands  
Adjust the seat height so that your forearms are approximately horizontal and  
your wrists are straight when using the keyboard. Your upper arms should be  
relaxed with your elbows near your body.  
Use a light touch on the keyboard, keeping your hands and fingers relaxed.  
Allow a space in front of the keyboard to rest your wrists when not typing.  
Consider using a wristpad.

Eyesight  
Working with monitors, in common with any prolonged close work, can be  
visually demanding. Look away from the screen periodically and have your  
eyesight checked regularly.  
Screen settings  
Set the screen brightness and contrast to a comfortable level. You may have  
to adjust this as the lighting changes during the day. Many application  
programs let you select color combinations which can help you to view in  
comfort. See the User controls section on page 19 for more information.  
Caring for your Monitor  
Be sure to turn off the power before you perform any maintenance on the  
monitor. Clean your monitor as follows:  
Gently wipe the device covers and the screen with a soft cloth.  
Remove finger marks and grease with a damp cloth and mild detergent;  
do not use solvents or abrasives  
Never use flammable cleaning material to clean your IBM monitor or any  
other electrical apparatus.  
Connect the power cord to the power port on the back of your monitor if  
the power cord supplied is not attached to the monitor. Then insert the  
plug into a properly grounded electrical outlet.

computer without image discoloration or smearing. After you perform Auto  
Image Setup, the settings are stored and used each time you turn on the  
monitor.  
To optimise the displayed image a set-up utility is provided on the CD.  
Operation of the utility is dependent on the operating system on your  
computer. For correct operation locate the operating system on your  
computer from the table below and follow the appropriate instructions. You  
can choose to run AUTO IMAGE SETUP for each operating system that you use.  
This means that if you sometimes use your monitor while running any version  
of Windows and sometimes also use it from within DOS (not a DOS window),  
you must run AUTO IMAGE SETUP for both Windows and DOS. You can run  
versions of AUTO IMAGE SETUP in any order.  
The Auto Image Setup  
instructions require the monitor to  
be warmed up for 15 minutes.  
This is not required for normal  
operation.

Further Information  
Display modes  
The display mode the monitor uses is controlled by the computer. Therefore,  
refer to your computer documentation for details on how to change display  
modes.  
The image size, position and shape might change when the display mode  
changes. This is normal and the image can be readjusted using AUTO IMAGE  
SETUP and the monitor controls.  
Unlike CRT monitors, which require a high refresh rate to minimize flicker,  
TFT technology is inherently flicker-free. If possible, configure your computer  
for 1280 × 1024 addressability at 60Hz vertical refresh rate.  
For the display modes listed on the next page, the screen image has been  
optimized during manufacture.
