Important Safety Instructions  
FCC Statement  
This equipment has been tested to comply with the limits for a class B digital  
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to  
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential  
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency  
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may  
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no  
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this  
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,  
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is  
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following  
measures:  
Relocate the receiving antenna.  
Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to  
which the receiver is connected.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.  
Warning:  
If a shielded-type power cord is supplied with this monitor, it is required in  
order to meet FCC emission limits and to prevent interference with nearby  
radio and television reception. Only shielded cables should be used to  
connect I/O devices to this equipment. You are cautioned that changes or  
modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance  
could void your authority to operate the equipment.  
CE Statement  
This device complies with the requirements of EMC (Electromagnetic  
Compatibility), and with Low Voltage directive.

TCO'99  
TCO99 compliant monitors must be compliant with TCO99 which is more  
stringent than MPRII. The purchase of TCO99 compliant monitors contributes  
to reducing the burden on the environment and also to the further  
development of environmentally adapted electronics products.  
Why do we have environmentally labelled computers?  
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established  
method-for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the  
environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics  
equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are  
used both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far  
possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most of  
these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter nature.  
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy  
consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the work  
(internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of electricity  
generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and  
climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy.  
Electronics equipment in offices is often left running continuously and thereby  
consumes a lot of energy.  
What does labelling involve?  
This product meets the requirements for the TCO'99 scheme which provides  
for international and environmental labelling of personal computers. The  
labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by the TCO (The Swedish  
Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska Naturskyddsforeningen  
(The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation) and Statens Energimyndighet  
(The Swedish National Energy Administration).  
Approval requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment,  
ergonomics, usability, emission of electric and magnetic fields, energy  
consumption and electrical and fire safety.  
The environmental demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of  
heavy metals, brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons)  
and chlorinated solvents, among other things. The product must be prepared  
for recycling and the manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental policy  
which must be adhered to in each country where the company implements its  
operational policy.

PV720A User’s Manual  
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or display,  
after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power consumption to a  
lower level in one or more stages. The length of time to reactivate the  
computer shall be reasonable for the user.  
Labelled products must meet strict environmental demands, for example, in  
respect of the reduction of electric and magnetic fields, physical and visual  
ergonomics and good usability. Below you will find a brief summary of the  
environmental requirements met by this product. The complete environmental  
criteria document may be ordered from:

Flame retardants  
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings  
and housings. There purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of  
fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame  
retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride, and  
those flame retardants are chemically related to another group of  
environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants containing bromine or  
chloride and the PCBs are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects,  
including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals, due to the  
bio-accumulative* processes. Flame retardants have been found in human  
blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may  
occur.  
The relevant TCO'99 demand requires that plastic components weighing  
more than 25 grams must not contain flame retardants with organically bound  
bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the printed circuit boards  
since no substitutes are available.

Cadmium**  
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating  
layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system  
and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that  
batteries, the colour-generating layers of display screens and the electrical or  
electronics components must not contain any cadmium.  
Mercury**  
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the  
nervous system and is toxic in high doses. The relevant TCO'99 requirement  
states that batteries may not contain any mercury. It also demands that  
mercury is not present in any of the electrical or electronics components  
associated with the labelled unit.  
CFCs (freons)  
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that neither CFCs nor HCFCs may  
be used during the manufacture and assembly of the product. CFCs (freons)  
are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards. CFCs break down  
ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere, causing  
increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased risks of skin  
cancer (malignant melanoma) as a consequence.  
Lead**  
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors.  
Lead damages the nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead  
poisoning. The relevant TCO'99 requirement permits the inclusion of lead  
since no replacement has yet been developed.  
*Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living  
organisms.  
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.  
Safety Precautions  
Please read the following instructions carefully. This manual should be  
retained for future reference.  
1. To clean the LCD Monitor screen make sure the Monitor is in the power off  
mode. Unplug the Monitor from its power source before cleaning it. Stand  
away from the LCD Monitor and spray cleaning solution onto a rag. Without  
applying excessive pressure clean the screen with the slightly dampened rag.
