Check first to make sure that the power cord you use is the correct type required for  
your area.  
This monitor has a universal power supply that allows operation in either 100/120V  
AC or 220/240 V AC voltage area. No user-adjustment is required.  
Plug one end of the power cord to theAC Inlet, plug another end to a properAC outlet.  
For unit using at 120 V AC:  
Use a UL Listed Cord Set, Type SVT wire and plug rated 10 A/125 V.  
For unit using at 220/240 V AC (outside of U.S.):  
Use a Cord Set consisting of H05VV-F cord and plug rated 10 A, 250 V. The cord set  
should have the appropriate safety approvals for the country in which the equipment  
will be installed.  
SAFETY PRECAUTION  
Avoid placing the monitor, or any other heavy object, on the power cord to prevent  
it from fire or electrical shock.  
Do not expose the monitor to rain, excessive moisture, or dust to avoid fire or shock

PRESET MODES  
To reduce the need for adjustment for different modes, the monitor has default setting  
modes that are most commonly used as given in the table below. For optimum adjustment,  
the user is suggested to perform the Auto Setup under Windows “Full Screen” pattern or  
using the pattern in the floppy disk provided. When none of the mode is matched, the user  
can store their preferred modes in the user modes. The monitor is capable of storing up to  
9 user modes. The only condition to store as a user mode is the new display information  
must have 1 KHz difference for horizontal frequency or 1 Hz for vertical frequency or the  
sync signal polarities are different from the default modes.
