3 Adjusting the Picture

In most cases, you won’t need to make any adjustments to the picture. However, you can fine-tune the screen display to suit your preferences using the controls on the front of the display. After setting the controls, your display will use your settings each time you turn on the computer.

Accessing the display’s controls

A flip-down panel covers some of the controls on the front of the display.

mTo open the panel so the display’s controls are accessible, gently push the upper-middle area of the panel.

The panel opens and flips down. You can now use the controls to adjust the picture.
