• Use the supplied power cord. If you use a different power cord,
be sure that it is compatible with your local power supply.
For the customers i n the UK
If you use the monitor in the UK, be sure to use the supplied UK
power cable.
• Before di sconnecting the power cord, wait at least 30 seconds
after turnin g o ff the po wer to a llow the static electric ity on the
screen’s surface to discharge.
• After the power is turned on, the screen is demagnetized
(degaussed) for about 5 seconds. This generates a strong
magnetic field around the screen which may affect data stored
on magnetic tapes and disks placed near the monitor. Be sure to
keep magnetic re cording e quipment, tapes, a nd disks away
from the monitor.

Maintenance
