Frequently Asked Questions
What precautions should I take when cleaning the LCD monitor?
Always unplug the monitor before cleaning. Use a soft cloth to wipe both the screen and cabinet sides.
What do I do if my picture is unstable during use?
Check that the specification of your graphics adapter and the monitor are compliant, as this may be causing an input signal frequency mismatch.
Should I worry about screen flickering when I first turn on the monitor?
No, screen flicker may occur due to the fluorescent light; simply turning it off and back on usually makes the issue disappear.
What is required before connecting or unplugging any power cords?
Make sure both the LCD monitor and the computer system are turned off before you connect or unplug any cables.
