2 Safety and Maintenance Guidelines
Important Safety Information
A power cord is included with the monitor. If another cord is used, use only a power source and
connection appropriate for this monitor. For information on the correct power cord set to use with the
monitor, refer to the
Power Cord Set Requirements on page 52 in Appendix C.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
• Do not disable the power cord grounding feature. The grounding plug is an important safety feature.
• Plug the power cord in a grounded (earthed) outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
• Disconnect power from the product by unplugging the power cord from the electrical outlet.
For your safety, do not place anything on power cords or cables. Arrange them so that no one may
accidentally step on or trip over them. Do not pull on a cord or cable. When unplugging from the
electrical outlet, grasp the cord by the plug.
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the Safety and Comfort Guide. It describes proper
workstation, setup, posture, and health and work habits for computer users, and provides important
electrical and mechanical safety information. This guide is located on the Web at
http://www.hp.com/
ergo and/or on the documentation CD, if one is included with the monitor.
CAUTION: For the protection of the monitor, as well as the computer, connect all power cords for
the computer and its peripheral devices (such as a monitor, printer, scanner) to some form of surge
protection device such as a power strip 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 the
equipment, if surge protection fails.
Use the appropriate and correctly sized furniture designed to properly support your HP LCD monitor.
WARNING! LCD monitors that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks,
speakers, chests, or carts may fall over and cause personal injury.
Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the LCD monitor so that they can not
be pulled, grabbed, or tripped over.
Maintenance Guidelines
To enhance the performance and extend the life of the monitor:
Do not open the monitor cabinet or attempt to service this product yourself. Adjust only those
controls that are covered in the operating instructions. If the monitor is not operating properly or
has been dropped or damaged, contact an authorized HP dealer, reseller, or service provider.
Use only a power source and connection appropriate for this monitor, as indicated on the label/
back plate of the monitor.
4 Chapter 2 Safety and Maintenance Guidelines ENWW
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 the 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.
Turn the monitor off when not in use. You can substantially increase the life expectancy of the
monitor by using a screen saver program and turning off the monitor when not in use.
NOTE: Monitors with a “burned-in image” are not covered under the HP warranty.
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.
Do not drop the monitor or place it on an unstable surface.
Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not walk on the cord.
Keep the monitor in a well-ventilated area, away from excessive light, heat or moisture.
When removing the monitor base, you must lay the monitor face down on a soft area to prevent it
from getting scratched, defaced, or broken.
Cleaning the Monitor
1. Turn off the monitor at the master power switch (on the back) and unplug the power cord from the
back of the unit.
2. Dust the monitor by wiping the screen and the cabinet with a soft, clean antistatic cloth.
3. For more difficult cleaning situations, use a 50/50 mix of water and Isopropyl alcohol.
CAUTION: Spray the cleaner onto a cloth and use the damp cloth to gently wipe the screen surface.
Never spray the cleaner directly on the screen surface. It may run behind the bezel and damage the
electronics.
CAUTION: Do not use cleaners that contain any petroleum based materials such as benzene,
thinner, or any volatile substance to clean the monitor screen or cabinet. These chemicals may damage
the monitor.
Shipping the Monitor
Keep the original packing box in a storage area. You may need it later if you move or ship the
monitor.

3 Setting Up the Monitor
To set up the monitor, ensure that the power is turned off to the monitor, computer system, and other
attached devices, then follow the instructions below.
NOTE: Be sure the master power switch, located on the rear panel of the monitor, is in the off
position. The master power switch turns off all power to the monitor.
Installing the Pedestal
NOTE: Do not install the pedestal if the monitor will be used on a wall, swing arm, or other mounting
fixture; instead see
Mounting the Monitor to User-Supplied Support Hardware on page 15 in this
chapter.
CAUTION: Whenever you handle the monitor, take care not to touch the surface of the LCD panel.
Pressure on the panel may cause non-uniformity of color or disorientation of the liquid crystals. If this
occurs the screen will not recover to its normal condition.
To assemble the ZR2040w, slide the pedestal upright into its base, as shown below.
Figure 3-1 Assembling the ZR2040w pedestal
6 Chapter 3 Setting Up the Monitor ENWW
Models ZR2240w, ZR2440w, and ZR2740w use the HP Quick Release 2 mechanism for easy moving
of the monitor. To mount the panel onto the pedestal:
1. Slide the mounting plate on the pedestal under the upper lip of the recess in the back of the panel.
2. Lower the pedestal into the recess until it snaps into place.
3. The HP Quick Release 2 latch pops up when the monitor is locked in place.
