About the Monitor
Precautions for Use
• Parts (such as the LCD panel and the fan) may deteriorate over extended periods of time. Periodically
check that they are operating normally.
• When the screen image is changed after displaying the same image for extended periods of time, an
afterimage may appear. Use the screen saver or power save function to avoid displaying the same
image for extended periods of time. An afterimage may appear even after a short period has elapsed
depending on the displayed image. If this occurs, changing the image or leaving the power off for a few
hours may solve the problem.
• If the monitor displays continuously over a long period of time, dark smudges or burn-in may appear. To
maximize the life of the monitor, we recommend the monitor be turned off periodically.
•
The backlight of the LCD panel has a fixed lifetime. When the screen becomes dark or begins to flicker,
please contact your local EIZO representative.
• The LCD panel is manufactured using high-precision technology. Although, missing pixels or lit pixels
may appear on the LCD panel, this is not a malfunction. Percentage of effective dots: 99.99 % or higher.
• Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this may result in display malfunctions, such
as interference patterns, etc. If pressure is continuously applied to the panel surface, it may deteriorate
or damage it. (If the pressure marks remain on the panel, leave the monitor with a black or white screen.
The symptom may disappear.)
• Do not scratch or press on the panel with any sharp objects, as this may result in damage to the panel.
Do not attempt to brush with tissues as this may scratch the panel.
• Condensation may form on the surface or interior of this product when it is brought into a cold room,
when the temperature suddenly rises, or when it is moved from a cold room to a warm room. In that
case, do not turn the monitor on. Instead wait until the dew condensation disappears, otherwise it may
cause some damage to the monitor.
• It takes about 30 minutes for the monitor display to stabilize. Before using the monitor, wait 30 minutes
or longer after the monitor power has been turned on or after the monitor has recovered from the power
saving mode.
