If there's still noise after the automatic adjustment, use the Fine/Coarse adjustment function.

When viewing a fixed screen for an extended period of time, a residual image or blurriness may appear. Change the mode to energy save or set a screensaver to move the picture when you need to be away from the monitor for an extended period of time.

PRODUCT INFORMATION (Image Retention Free)

What is Image Retention ?

Image retention may not occur when a LCD panel is operated under normal con- ditions.

Normal conditions are defined as continuously changing video patterns. When the LCD panel is operated for a long time with a fixed pattern (over 12 hours), there may be slight difference in voltage between electrodes that work the liquid crystal (LC) in a pixel. The voltage difference between electrodes increases with time, forcing the liquid crystal to lean. When this occurs, the previous image may be seen when the pattern is changed. To prevent this, the accumulated voltage difference must be decreased.

Information

Power Off, Screen Saver, or Power Save Mode

???Turn the power off for 2 hours after 12 hours in use

???Set the Monitor to power off with the PC Display Properties Power Scheme.

???Use a Screen saver if possible - Screen saver in one Color or a moving image is recommended.

???The Image Retention Free function applied to the product is recommended. - For detailed configuration procedures, refer to the back page.

Change the Color Information periodically

Note

Use Two different Colors

Rotate the Color Information with 2 different Colors every 30 minutes.

???Avoid using a combination of characters and background Color with large dif- ference in luminance.

Avoid using Grey Colors, which can cause Image retention easily. Avoid: Colors with big difference in luminance (Black & White, Grey)

Information

Change the characters Color periodically

???Use Bright Colors with little difference in luminance.

-Cycle : Change the characters Color and background Color every 30 minutes

???Every 30 minutes, change the characters with movement.

???Have the images and logo cycle periodically.

-Cycle: Display moving image together with Logo for 60 seconds after 4 hours in use.

???The best way to protect your monitor from Image retention is to turn the Power off, or set your PC or System to operate a Screen Saver Program when you are not using it. If these guidelines are not followed, it may affect your warranty.
