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.
•
Turn the monitor off when not in use. You can substantially increase the life expectancy of
them on it or by using a screen saver program and turning off the monitor when not in use.
•
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.
•
Keep the monitor in a well-ventilated area, away from excessive light, heat or moisture.
Cleaning the Monitor
1.
Turn off the monitor 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. Spray
the cleaner onto a cloth and use the damp cloth to gently wipe the screen surface.
NOTES:
Monitors with a “burned-in-image” are not covered under the HP warranty.
CAUTION:
Do not spray the cleaner directly on the screen surface. The cleaner might 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 might
damage the monitor.
