Turning on the monitor
This section provides important information about preventing damage to your monitor, startup indicators,
and troubleshooting information.
IMPORTANT:
Burn-in image damage might occur on monitors that display the same static image on the
screen for 12 or more hours. To avoid burn-in image damage, you should always activate a screen saver
application or turn off the monitor when it will not be in use for a prolonged period of time. Image retention
is a condition that might occur on all LCD screens. Burn-in damage on the monitor is not covered under the
HP warranty.
NOTE:
If pressing the power button has no effect, the Power Button Lockout feature might be enabled. To
disable this feature, press and hold the monitor power button for 10 seconds.
NOTE:
On select HP monitors, you can disable the power light in the OSD menu. Press the
Menu
button to
open the OSD, select Power, select Power LED, and then select Off.
