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.
• 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.
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.
