Selecting Refresh Rate

To minimize eyestrain and maximize the performance of your display, use the highest possible image refresh rate or vertical frequency for which you don’t perceive flicker (generally at or above 75 Hz for most users). The image refresh rate is the number of times per second that the image is refreshed. The “Pre-Set Video Modes” table shows the image refresh rates supported by the monitors at different screen resolutions.

Minimizing Energy Use

HP Pavilion PCs support VESA Display Power Management Signaling (DPMS). Power Management features reduce the monitor’s power consumption after a period of keyboard inactivity.

The monitor supports three different power-saving modes — Standby, Suspend, and Sleep. See “DPMS Power Management Features” for a description of the characteristics of each mode.

When the monitor is in one of its power-saving modes, the screen is blanked out and the front panel power indicator is yellow/amber. Consult your PC user’s guide for information about setting the power-saving modes.

Cleaning the Screen

To clean the screen:

1Turn off and unplug the monitor.

2Spray a soft cotton cloth with regular household glass cleaner, and then gently wipe the screen.
