CONNECT YOUR MONITOR TO YOUR

COMPUTER OR DEVICE

Plug in the Cable connecting your desktop, laptop or other device to your monitor .

Using the Display Port will provide for best performance and resolution.

If Display Port is not available, we recommend using Dual Link DVI or

HDMI 1.4 device.

Notes:

• HDMI 1.4 device does support 2560 x 1440 (WQHD/WQXGA). But you have to check your signal source & HDMI Cable both support HDMI ver. 1.4.

• Auria does not recommend using VGA for WQHD/UWXGA.

• If you are using the DVI or VGA video cable, be certain to tighten down the

grounding screws on the connector (on both ends of the video cable).

Turn on the source device then turn on the monitor (push power button on the cabinet). For the best performance, use 2560 x 1600 (WQHD/UWXGA) graphics’ mode (If supported by your graphics card).

CARE & SAFETY

Attention:

Any unauthorized modifications or changes may cause the monitor to not work properly. The manufacturer is not responsible for radio or image interference caused by unapproved modifications. Users should solve interference issues by themselves.

Warning:

To prevent fire hazards or explosions, do not expose the monitor to rain or humid environments. Please do not open the monitor’s back cover or you may be exposed to high voltage current. Contact professional personnel for maintenance.

26

CARE & SAFETY

Usage

It is normal for your monitor to “blink” the first time you use it. If this occurs simply turn your monitor off, then on again. The effective screen pixels of your monitor should read 99.99% or more, pixel or brightness loss should be less than 0.01%. During normal usage your monitor should not have pixel residue.

However, when the same static picture is showed a long time before changing the image, the previous image may remain, which is called “the shadow”. The best way to avoid this “shadow” is when you are not operating your PC or computer system, run monochrome or dynamic images as a screen saver, or turn off monitor power 2 hours at every 12 hours. When the screen is black, blinking, etc., Please contact the dealer or authorized service center to replace related parts. Do not attempt to fix the monitor yourself.

Environments

Keep your monitor away from water sources, such as the bathroom, dishwasher, kitchen, washing machine, swimming pools or humid basements.

Also avoid placing your monitor near direct heat such as heaters, hot air pipes or under direct sunshine. Also avoid unstable surfaces or places with excess dust or vibration. If your monitor is fixed on the wall or shelf, installation should be confirmed by a professional installer. The long, narrow holes in the upper and bottom part of the monitor back cover are for ventilation. These holes must be kept clear at all times to prevent overheating.

27

CARE & SAFETY

Cleaning & transport

Keep the original box and other packing material in the event that you need to ship your monitor. To clean your monitor use a soft, dry cloth and only cleaners intended for use with a screen or display. Cleaners with alcohol or acetone will damage your screen. Any marks on the monitor should be cleaned gently so as to prevent damage. For your safety, please un-plug power cord before cleaning.

Power

For safety purposes, your monitor may only be used with a power supply voltage range of 100 ~ 240V AC. If you can’t confirm the supply voltage you can consult your reseller or the local power company. This monitor is equipped with a three-wire grounding plug, one end grounded. For safety, the plug should be inserted only into grounded power outlets. If you can’t insert the plug into a three-phase socket, please find an electrician to install one or use an adapter to ground the equipment safely. When the display is not used for a long period of time unplug it to cut off the power supply. Such action can prevent electrical shock, fire or abnormal power voltage due to events like thunderstorms. Do not open your monitor’s shell or place foreign material inside the shell as this may cause fire or electrical shock.
