Maintaining the monitor
Maintenance guidelines
To enhance the performance and extend the life of the monitor:
• When installing or removing the Spectrum Stand or a VESA mount, position
the monitor face-down on a soft area to prevent it from getting scratched,
defaced, or broken.
• Turn the monitor off when not in use. You can substantially increase the life
expectancy of the monitor by using a screen saver program and turning off
the monitor when not in use.
•
NOTE: Spectrum uses In-Plane Switching (IPS) display technology which
provides ultrawide viewing angles and advanced image quality, making it
suitable for a wide variety of advanced image quality applications. This
panel technology, however, is not suitable for applications that exhibit
static, stationary, or fixed images for long periods of time without the use of
screen savers. These types of applications may include camera surveillance,
marketing logos, and templates that are displayed on the screen for a
prolonged period.
• Displaying the same static image or image elements on the screen for
multiple consecutive hours may cause image retention damage that could
look like stains or watermarks on the monitor's screen. Image retention
(also called ‘burn-in’) is a condition that may occur on all LCD screens. To
avoid image retention damage, either turn off the monitor when it is not in
use or use the power management setting, if supported on your system, to
turn off the monitor when the system is idle.
• 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 Dough dealer, reseller, or service provider. This
includes situations where:
o the power cord or plug is damaged, cut or frayed;
o liquid was spilled into the product;
o the product was exposed to rain or water;
o the product has been dropped or the housing has been damaged;
o the product exhibits a distinct change in performance; or
o the product does not operate normally after following the operating
instructions.
• Disconnect the monitor by grasping the plug firmly and pulling it from the AC
outlet. Never disconnect the monitor by pulling the cord.
• 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, or spill liquid of any kind onto or into the
product.
• Keep the monitor in a well-ventilated area, away from excessive light, heat,
or moisture.
