Failing to do so may result in fire or a problem with the product due to an increase in the internal temperature. Install the product so the required distances shown in the figure are kept. The appearance may differ depending on the product. When installing the product with a stand

About persistent images Displaying a still image for a long time may create a persistent image or stain on the screen. If you do not use the product for a long time, set the power-saving mode or screen saver. Due to technological constraints of the panel manufacturer, the images generated by this product may appear either brighter or darker than normal for approximately 1 ppm (parts per million) pixels. The number of sub-pixels by panel type: The number of Sub-Pixels = Max. Horizontal Resolution x Max. Vertical Resolution x 3 Example) If the maximum resolution is 1920 x 1080, the number of sub-pixels is 1920 x 1080 x 3 = 6,220,800.

6-10 Power Saving Function

This monitor has a built-in power management system called PowerSaver. This system saves energy by switching your monitor to low-power mode when it has not been used for a certain amount of time. The monitor automatically returns to normal operation when you press a key on the keyboard. For energy conservation, turn your monitor OFF when it is not needed, or when leaving it unattended for long periods. The PowerSaver system operates with a VESA DPM compliant video card installed in your computer. Use the software utility installed on your computer to set up this feature. STATE Power Indicator Power Consumption NORMAL OPERATION On 23 W POWER SAVING MODE Blinking Typical 0.3 W POWER OFF Off Typical 0.3 W

If there is no power cut-off switch, the power consumption is "0" only when the power cord is disconnected.
