The sRGB color setting is an industry standard color space protocol designed to correlate the displayed and printed colors of sRGB compliant computer products. To adjust the colors to the sRGB profile, simply select the sRGB mode in the COLOR OSD. However, in order to display the sRGB colors correctly (γ=2.2, 6500K), you must set your computer to the sRGB profile and adjust the brightness (
) and contrast (>) to the numbers shown in the menu. For information on how to change the brightness (
) and contrast (>), see page 6.
Note
Your computer and other connected products (such as a printer), must be sRGB compliant.

Restoring the color from the EASY or sRGB menus
The colors of most display monitors tend to gradually lose brilliance over several years of service. The COLOR RETURN feature found in the EASY and sRGB menus allows you to restore the color to the original factory quality levels. The explanation below explains how to restore the monitor’s color from the EASY menu.
1Press the ?//buttons to select EASY or sRGB mode.
2First press the ./>buttons to select 
(COLOR RETURN), then press the /button.
The picture disappears while the color is being restored (about 2 seconds). After the color is restored, the picture reappears on the screen again.
Notes
•Before using this feature, the monitor must be in normal operation mode (green power indicator on) for at least 30 minutes. If the monitor goes into power saving mode, you must return the monitor to normal operation mode and wait for 30 minutes for the monitor to be ready. You may need to adjust your computer’s power saving settings to keep the monitor in normal operation mode for the full 30 minutes. If the monitor is not ready, the following message will appear.
