This manual should be retained for future use. 1. To clean LCD Monitor screen; -- Power off LCD Monitor and unplug the AC Cord. -- Spray a non-solvent cleaning solution onto a rag. -- Gently clean the screen with dampened rag. 2. Do not place the LCD Monitor near a window. Exposing the monitor to rain water, moisture or sunlight can severely damage it. 3. Do not apply pressure to the LCD screen. Excess pressure may cause permanent damage to the display. 4. Do not remove the cover or attempt to service this unit by yourself. Servicing of any nature should be performed by an authorized technician. 5. Store LCD Monitor in a room with a room temperature of -20° ~ 60°C (or -4° ~ 140°F). Storing the LCD Monitor outside this range could result in permanent damage. 6. If any of the following occurs, immediately unplug your monitor and call an authorized technician. * * * Monitor to PC signal cable is frayed or damaged. Liquid spilled into LCD Monitor or the monitor has been exposed to rain. LCD Monitor or the case is damaged. 7. Only use the supplied main lead to connect the monitor. For a nominal current up to 6A and a device weight above 3 kg, a line not lighter than H05VV-F, 3G, 0.75 mm2 must be used. Special Notes on LCD Monitors The following symptoms are normal with LCD monitor and do not indicate a problem. NOTES · Due to the nature of the fluorescent light, the screen may flicker during initial use. Turn off the Power Switch and then turn it on again to make sure the flicker disappears. · You may find slightly uneven brightness on the screen depending on the desktop pattern you use. · The LCD screen has effective pixels of 99.99% or more. It may include blemishes of 0.01% or less such as a missing pixel or a pixel lit all of the time. · Due to the nature of the LCD screen, an afterimage of the previous screen may remain after switching the image, when the same image is displayed for hours. In this case, the screen is recovered slowly by changing the image or turning off the Power Switch for hours. 3 IT Equipment Recycling Information IT Equipment Recycling Information: Acer is strongly committed to environmental protection and views recycling, in the form of salvaging and disposal, of used equipment as one of the company's top priorities in minimizing the burden placed on the environment.

You need a stable and clean surface near a wall power outlet. Make sure that LCD Monitor has enough space around it for sufficient airflow. Though the LCD Monitor uses very little power, some ventilation is needed to ensure that the Monitor does not become too hot. After you unpack the LCD Monitor, make sure that the following items were included in the box: * LCD Monitor * Base * User's Manual * Quick Setup Guide * 1.8M Monitor-to-PC D-SUB Cable * 1.8M Monitor-to-PC DVI Cable (option) * 1.8M Power Cord If you find that any of these items is missing or appears damaged, contact your dealer immediately. Connecting the LCD Monitor and Base 1. Take the base from the package, and place it on a stable surface (e.g., desk or table). 2. Ensure that the arrow on the base faces forward. 3. Place the LCD securely on the base as shown in the illustration. Figure 1-1 Viewing Angle Adjustment The LCD Monitor is designed to allow users to have a comfortable viewing angle. The viewing angle can be adjusted from -5°to +15°.(See fig. 1-2) Figure 1-2 Warning Do not force the LCD Monitor over its maximum viewing angle settings as stated above. Attempting this will result in damaging the Monitor and Monitor stand. 5 Detaching LCD Monitor from Its Stand Unscrew screws the swivel base support column and pull down the hinge to release. Figure 1-3 Interface for Arm Applications Before installing to mounting device, please refer to Fig.1-3. The rear of this LCD display has four integrated 4 mm, 0.7 pitches threaded nuts, as well as four 5 mm access holes in the plastic covering as illustrated in Figure 1-4. These specifications meet the VESA Flat Panel Monitor Physical Mounting Interface Standard (paragraphs 2.1 and 2.1.3, version 1, dated 13 November 1997). Figure 1-4 Connecting the Display 1. Power off your computer. 2. Connect one end of the signal cable to the LCD Monitor's D-SUB or DVI (option) port.(See Fig 1-5) 3. Connect the other end of the signal cable to the D-SUB or DVI (option) port on your PC. 4. Make sure connections are secure. Figure 1-5 Connecting the AC Power 1. Connect the power cord to the LCD Monitor. (See Fig. 1-6) 2. Connect the power cord to an AC power source. Figure 1-6 Power Management System This LCD Monitor complies with the VESA DPMS (version 1.0) Power Management guidelines. The VESA DPMS provides four power saving modes through detecting a horizontal or vertical sync. signal. When the LCD Monitor is in power saving mode, the monitor screen will be blank and the power LED indicator will light yellow. 6 Chapter 2 Display Controls General Instructions Press the power button to turn the monitor on or off. The other control buttons are located at front panel of the monitor (See Figure 2-1). By changing these settings, the picture can be adjusted to your personal preferences. The power cord should be connected. Connect the video cable from the monitor to the video card. Press the power button to turn on the monitor position. The power indicator will light up.

Due to the output timing differences among various VGA cards in the market, users may initially experience an unstable or unclear display whenever a new display mode or new VGA card is selected. Attention This LCD Monitor Supports Multiple VGA Modes. Refer to the Standard Timing Table for a listing of modes supported by this LCD Monitor. PROBLEM Picture is unclear and unstable The picture is unclear and unstable, please perform the following steps : 1. Enter PC to "Shut Down Windows" status while you're in MS-Windows environment, except Windows XP. In Windows XP open the specific application where the problems appear. 2. Check the screen to see if there's any black vertical stripes appear. If there are, take advantage of the "Clock" function in OSD menu and adjust (by increment or decrement numbers) until those bars disappear. 3. Move to "Phase" function in OSD menu again and adjust the monitor screen to its most clear display. 4. Click "No" on "Shut Down Windows" and back to the normal PC operating environment. PROBLEM There is no picture on LCD Monitor If there's no picture on the LCD Monitor, please perform the following steps: 1. Make sure the power indicator on the LCD Monitor is ON, all connections are secured, and the system is running on the correct timing. Refer to Chapter 3 for information on timing. 2. Turn off the LCD Monitor and then turn it back on again. If there is still no picture, press the Adjustment Control button several times. 3. If step 2 doesn't work, connect your PC system to another external CRT. If your PC system Functions properly with a CRT Monitor but it does not function with the LCD Monitor, the output timing of the VGA card may be out of the LCD's synchronous range. Please change to an alternative mode listed in the Standard Timing Table or replace the VGA card, and then repeat steps 1 and 2. PROBLEM There is no picture on LCD Monitor If you have chosen an output timing that is outside of the LCD Monitor's synchronous range (Horizontal: 30 ~ 80 KHz and Vertical: 49 ~ 75 Hz), the OSD will display a "Out of Range" message. Choose a mode that is supported by your LCD Monitor. Also, if the signal cable is not connected to LCD monitor at all or properly, the monitor screen will display a message "No Input Signal". 16
