Important Safety Information
The power cord is designed for use with your monitor. To use a
different cord, use only a power source and connection compatible
with this monitor. For information on the correct power cord set to
use with your monitor, see “Power Cord Set Requirements” in
Appendix B.
w
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your
equipment, do not disable the power cord grounding feature. The
grounding plug is an important safety feature. Connect the
equipment to a grounded (earthed) power outlet.
w
WARNING: For your safety, be sure that the grounded power outlet
you plug the power cord into is easily accessible to the operator and
located as close to the equipment as possible. To disconnect power
from the equipment, unplug the power cord from the power outlet by
grasping the plug firmly. Never pull on the cord.
Safety and Maintenance Guidelines
2–2 User’s Guide
c
CAUTION: To protect your monitor, as well as your PC, connect all
power cords for your PC and its peripheral devices (such as a
monitor, printer, or scanner) to a surge protection device such as
a power strip with surge protection or uninterruptible power
supply (UPS).
Not all power strips provide surge protection; the power strips must
be specifically labeled as having this ability. Use a power strip
whose manufacturer offers a damage replacement policy so you can
replace your equipment if surge protection fails.
Safety Precautions
■ Avoid applying pressure to the LCD screen; doing so can
cause damage.
■ Use only a power source and connection compatible with this
monitor, as indicated on the label/back plate of the monitor.
■ Be sure the total ampere rating of the products connected to
the outlet does not exceed the current rating of the electrical
outlet, and the total ampere rating of the products connected
to the cord does not exceed the rating of the cord. Look on the
power label to determine the ampere rating (Amps or A) for
each device.
■ Install your monitor near an outlet that you can easily reach.
Disconnect the monitor by grasping the plug firmly and pulling
it from the outlet. Never disconnect the monitor by pulling
the cord.
■ Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not walk
on the cord.

Maintenance Guidelines
To enhance the performance and extend the life of your monitor:
■ Do not open your monitor cabinet or attempt to service this
product yourself. If your monitor is not operating properly or
has been dropped or damaged, contact your HP authorized
dealer, reseller, or service provider.

excessive light, heat, or moisture.
■ Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation.
These openings must not be blocked or covered. Never push
objects of any kind into cabinet slots or other openings.
■ Unplug your monitor from the wall outlet before cleaning.
■ Do not drop your monitor or place it on an unstable surface.
