Choosing a Good Location for Your Display
When determining where to place your display, keep the following points in mind:
m
Make sure the power adapter cable, power cord, and display cables easily reach from the
back of the display to your computer and an electrical outlet or power strip.
m
All cables should be unobstructed when you adjust the display. If you don’t allow enough
clearance, the connectors might be damaged when the cables hit an obstruction.
Important
The only way to disconnect the monitor’s power completely is to unplug the
power cord from the computer or electrical outlet. Make sure at least one end of the
power cord is within easy reach so that you can unplug the display if you need to.
Warning
Use only the power adapter that came with your display. Adapters for other
computer equipment may look similar, but they may damage your display.
This equipment is intended to be electrically grounded. This is a safety feature. Your
power cord has a plug that has a third grounding pin. Be sure to connect it only to a
grounded outlet. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact a licensed
electrician to replace the outlet with a properly grounded outlet. Do not defeat the
purpose of the grounding plug!
If your power cord connects directly to the power socket on your computer, be sure that
the computer is grounded.
