About your monitor
Plug and play capability
You can install the monitor in any Plug and Play-compatible system. The monitor
automatically provides the computer system with its Extended Display Identification
Data (EDID) using Display Data Channel (DDC) protocols so the system can
configure itself and optimize the monitor settings. Most monitor installations are
automatic, you can select different settings if desired. For more information about
changing the monitor settings, see

LCD monitor quality and pixel policy
During the LCD Monitor manufacturing process, it is not uncommon for one or
more pixels to become fixed in an unchanging state which are hard to see and do
not affect the display quality or usability. For more information on Dell Monitor
Quality and Pixel Policy, see Dell Support site at

Ergonomics
CAUTION: Improper or prolonged usage of keyboard may result in in-
jury.
CAUTION: Viewing the monitor screen for extended periods of time
may result in eye strain.
For comfort and efficiency, observe the following guidelines when setting up and
using your computer workstation:
• Position your computer so that the monitor and keyboard are directly in front of
you as you work. Special shelves are commercially available to help you correctly
position your keyboard.
• To reduce the risk of eye strain and neck, arm, back, or shoulder pain from using
the monitor for long period, we recommend you to:
1.
Set the distance of the screen between 20 in. to 28 in. (50 cm - 70 cm) from
your eyes.
2.
Blink frequently to moisten your eyes or wet your eyes with water after
prolonged usage of the monitor.
3.
Take regular and frequent breaks for 20 minutes every two hours.
4.
Look away from your monitor and gaze at a distant object at 20 feet away for
at least 20 seconds during the breaks.
5.
Perform stretches to relieve tension in the neck, arm, back, and shoulders
during the breaks.
