xColor is not uniform

Degauss the monitor.* If you place equipment that generates a magnetic field, such as a speaker, near the monitor, or if you change the direction the monitor faces, color may lose uniformity.

xWhite does not look white

• Adjust the color temperature.

xMonitor buttons do not operate ( appears on the screen)

If the control lock is set to ON, set it to OFF.

xLetters and lines show red or blue shadows at the edges

Adjust the convergence.

xA hum is heard right after the power is turned on

This is the sound of the auto-degauss cycle. When the power is

turned on, the monitor is automatically degaussed for five seconds.

*If a second degauss cycle is needed, allow a minimum interval of

20 minutes for the best result. A humming noise may be heard, but this is not a malfunction.
