Safety Precautions and Maintenance  
FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, PLEASE NOTE  
THE FOLLOWING WHEN SETTING UP AND  
USING THE MULTISYNC LCD COLOR MONITOR:  
DO NOT OPEN THE MONITOR. There are no user serviceable parts  
inside and opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous  
shock hazards or other risks. Refer all servicing to qualified service  
personnel.  
Do not spill any liquids into the cabinet or use your monitor near water.  
Do not insert objects of any kind into the cabinet slots, as they may  
touch dangerous voltage points, which can be harmful or fatal or may  
cause electric shock, fire or equipment failure.  
Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord. Damage to the cord  
may cause shock or fire.  
Do not place this product on a sloping or unstable cart, stand or table, as  
the monitor may fall, causing serious damage to the monitor.  
When operating the MultiSync LCD monitor with its AC 126-240V power  
supply, use a power supply cord that matches the power supply voltage  
of the AC power outlet being used. The power supply cord you use must  
have been approved by and comply with the safety standards of your  
country. (Type H05VV-F should be used in UK.)  
Do not place any objects onto the monitor and do not use the monitor  
outdoors.  
The inside of the flourescent tube located within the LCD monitor  
contains mercury.  
Please follow the bylaws or rules of your municipality to dispose of the  
tube properly.  
In UK, use a BS-approved power cord with molded plug having a black  
(5A)fuse installed for use with this monitor. If a power cord is not  
supplied with this monitor, please contact your supplier.  
Immediately unplug your monitor from the wall outlet and refer servicing to  
qualified service personnel under the following conditions:  
When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.  
If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the monitor.  
If the monitor has been exposed to rain or water.  
If the monitor has been dropped or the cabinet damaged.  
English-13  
If the monitor does not operate normally by following operating  
instructions.  
Do not bend power cord.  
Do not use monitor in high temperatured, humid, dusty, or oily areas.  
Do not cover vent on monitor.  
If monitor is broken, do not come in contact with the liquid crystal.  
If glass is broken. Handle with care.  
Allow adequate ventilation around the monitor so that  
heat can properly dissipate. Do not block ventilated  
openings or place the monitor near a radiator or other  
heat sources. Do not put anything on top of monitor.  
The power cable connector is the primary means of  
detaching the system from the power supply. The  
monitor should be installed close to a power outlet which  
is easily accessible.  
Caution  
Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for  
transporting.  
CORRECT PLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT OF  
THE MONITOR CAN REDUCE EYE, SHOULDER  
AND NECK FATIGUE. CHECK THE FOLLOWING  
WHEN YOU POSITION THE MONITOR:  
For optimum performance, allow  
20 minutes for warm-up.  
Adjust the monitor height so that the top of  
the screen is at or slightly below eye level.  
Your eyes should look slightly downward  
when viewing the middle of the screen.  
Position your monitor no closer than  
16 inches and no further away than  
28 inches from your eyes. The optimal  
distance is 21 inches.  
Rest your eyes periodically by focusing on  
an object at least 20 feet away. Blink often.  
Position the monitor at a 90° angle to windows and other light sources to  
minimize glare and reflections. Adjust the monitor tilt so that ceiling lights  
do not reflect on your screen.  
If reflected light makes it hard for you to see your screen, use an anti-  
glare filter.  
English-14  
Clean the LCD monitor surface with a lint-free, non-abrasive cloth. Avoid  
using any cleaning solution or glass cleaner!  
Adjust the monitors brightness and contrast controls to enhance  
readability.  
Use a document holder placed close to the screen.  
Position whatever you are looking at most of the time (the screen or  
reference material) directly in front of you to minimize turning your head  
while you are typing.  
Avoid displaying fixed patterns on the monitor for long periods of time to  
avoid image persistence (after-image effects).  
Get regular eye checkups.  
Ergonomics  
To realize the maximum ergonomics benefits, we recommend the following:  
Do not position the Contrast control to its maximum setting  
Use the preset Size and Position controls with standard signals  
Use the preset Color Setting  
Use non-interlaced signals with a vertical refresh rate between 60-75 Hz  
Do not use primary color blue on a dark background, as it is difficult to  
see and may produce eye fatigue to insufficient contrast

Troubleshooting  
No picture  
The signal cable should be completely connected to the display card/  
computer.  
The display card should be completely seated in its slot.  
Power Switch and computer power switch should be in the ON  
position.  
Check to make sure that a supported mode has been selected on the  
display card or system being used. (Please consult display card or  
system manual to change graphics mode.)  
Check the monitor and your display card with respect to compatibility  
and recommended settings.  
Check the signal cable connector for bent or pushed-in pins.  
Image persistence  
Image persistence is when a ghostof an image remains on the  
screen even after the monitor has been turned off. Unlike CRT  
monitors, LCD monitorsimage persistence is not permanent. To  
alleviate image persistence, turn the monitor off for as long as an  
image was displayed. If an image was on the monitor for one hour  
and a ghostof that image remains, the monitor should be turned off  
for one hour to erase the image.  
NOTE:  
As with all personal display devices, NEC-Mitsubishi  
Electronic Displays recommends using a screen saver at  
regular intervals whenever the screen is idle.  
Image is unstable, unfocused or swimming is  
apparent  
Signal cable should be completely attached to the computer.  
Use the OSM Image Adjust controls to focus and adjust display by  
increasing or decreasing the fine total. When the display mode is  
changed, the OSM Image Adjust settings may need to be re-  
adjusted.  
Check the monitor and your display card with respect to compatibility  
and recommended signal timings.  
English-18  
LED on monitor is not lit (no green or amber color  
can be seen)  
Power Switch should be in the ON position and power cord should be  
connected.  
Make certain the computer is not in a power-saving mode (touch the  
keyboard or mouse).  
Display image is not sized properly  
Use the OSM Image Adjust controls to increase or decrease the  
Coarse total.  
Check to make sure that a supported mode has been selected on the  
display card or system being used. (Please consult display card or  
system manual to change graphics mode.)  
Selected resolution is not displayed properly  
Use OSM Display Mode to enter Information menu and confirm that  
the appropriate resolution has been selected. If not, select  
corresponding option.

TCO99  
Congratulations! You have just purchased a TCO99  
approved and labeled product!Your choice has  
provided you with a product developed for  
professional use. Your purchase has also contributed  
to reducing the burden on the environment and also  
to the further development of environmentally  
adapted electronics products.  
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?  
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established  
method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the  
environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other  
electronics equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful  
substances are used both in the products and during the manufacturing.  
Since it has not been possible for the majority of electronics equipment  
to be recycled in a satisfactory way, most of these potentially damaging  
substances sooner or later enter Nature.  
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy  
consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the  
work (Internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of  
conventional electricity generation have a negative effect on the  
environment (acidic and climate-influencing emissions, radioactive  
waste, etc.), it is vital to conserve energy. Electronics equipment in  
offices consume an enormous amount of energy since they are often left  
running continuously.  
What does labelling involve?  
This product meets the requirements for the TCO99 scheme which  
provides for international and environmental labelling of personal  
computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the  
TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska  
Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation)  
and Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy  
Administration).  
The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment,  
ergonomics, usability, emission of electrical and magnetic fields, energy  
consumption and electrical and fire safety.  
English-20  
The environmental demands concern restrictions on the presence and  
use of heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants,  
CFCs (freons) and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The  
product must be prepared for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged  
to have an environmental plan which must be adhered to in each  
country where the company implements its operational policy. The  
energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or  
display, after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power  
consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The length of time  
to reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.  
Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for  
example, in respect of the reduction of electric and magnetic fields,  
physical and visual ergonomics and good usability.  
Environmental Requirements  
Flame retardants  
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires,  
casings and housings. In turn, they delay the spread of fire. Up to thirty  
percent of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame  
retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride  
and these are related to another group of environmental toxins, PCBs,  
which are suspected to give rise to severe health effects, including  
reproductive damage in fisheating birds and mammals, due to the  
bioaccumulative* processes. Flame retardants have been found in  
human blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus  
development may occur.  
TCO99 demand requires that plastic components weighing more than  
25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound  
chlorine and bromine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit  
boards since no substitutes are available.  
Lead**  
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and  
capacitors. Lead damages the nervous system and in higher doses,  
causes lead poisoning.  
TCO99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead since no replacement  
has yet been developed.  
English-21  
Cadmium**  
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the  
colourgenerating layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium  
damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.  
TCO99 requirement states that batteries, the colourgenerating layers of  
display screens and the electrical or electronics components must not  
contain any cadmium.  
Mercury**  
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches, Mercury  
damages the nervous system and is toxic in high doses.  
TCO99 requirement states that batteries may not contain any Mercury.  
It also demands that no mercury is present in any of the electrical or  
electronics components associated with the display unit.  
CFCs (freons)  
CFCs (freons)are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards.  
CFCs break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the  
stratosphere, causing increased reception on Earth of ultraviolet light  
with consequent increased risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma).  
The relevant TCO99 requirement; Neither CFCs nor HCFCs may be  
used during the manufacturing and assembly of the product or its  
packaging.  
* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within  
living organisms.  
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-  
accumulative.
