Using the speaker bar
To turn on the speaker bar:
• The speaker bar is always on. If you connected the speaker bar by following the instructions
in
“Setting up the optional speaker bar” on page 5 , the speaker bar receives power constantly
from the monitor’s speaker bar power connector.
To use headphones:
• Plug headphones into either of the speaker bar’s headphone jacks. The speaker bar’s volume
is muted, and sound is played through the connected headphones. You can connect
headphones to both headphone jacks, and sound plays out of both sets of headphones.
Power management
Energy declaration
When connected to a computer that supports the VESA Display Power Management Signaling
(DPMS) Protocol, the monitor can conserve significant energy by reducing power consumption
during periods of non-use. When your computer goes into the energy saving mode, the monitor
will then enter the Active Off mode (sleep). In the Active Off mode the Power LED will still show
orange.
Use these conventions and the power can be reduced to the following levels:
To “wake” the monitor when it is in Standby/Active Off mode, move the mouse or press any
keyboard key. You can change the monitor’s power management settings using the Windows
Control Panel. For more information, see your computer’s User Guide.
Maintaining
To keep the monitor in optimal working order:
• Do not block the ventilation holes.
• Do not expose the monitor to rain or use near water.
• Keep the monitor away from radiators or heat vents.
• Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight.
• To clean the monitor, use a soft cloth slightly moistened with water only. Wipe the cabinet,
screen, and controls.
Important
If you connect the speaker bar to the monitor while the monitor is turned on, the
speaker bar will not initialize and will not work correctly. If this happens, turn the monitor
off, then back on to enable the speaker bar.
