LEANING

 

Clean the LCD monitor surface with a lint-free, non-abrasive cloth. Avoid using any cleaning solution 
or glass cleaner! 

• 

Adjust the monitor’s brightness and contrast controls to enhance readability. 

• 

Avoid displaying fixed patterns on the monitor for long periods of time to avoid image persistence (after-image 
effects).

RGONOMICS

 

To realize the maximum ergonomics benefits, we recommend the following: 

• 

Adjust the Brightness until the background raster disappears 

• 

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 60-75Hz 

• 

Do not use primary color blue on a dark background, as it is difficult to see and may produce eye fatigue due to 
insufficient contrast
