Eye Protect

  Your monitor comes with a light sensor, which detects the 

light condition around the monitor and adjusts the monitor 
backlight automatically. This is to protect your eyes from 
overexposure to bright light. 
If the light is sufficient, the monitor brightness is increased. 
If the monitor is in a poor light, the monitor brightness is 
decreased. 

If you prefer to adjust the monitor brightness manually, go to
