If you have VESA's DPMS compliant display card
or software installed in your PC, the display can automatically reduce its power
consumption when not in use. If input from keyboard, mouse or other input devices
is detected, the display will automatically "wake up". The following
table shows the power consumption and signaling of this automatic power saving
feature:

This display is ENERGY STAR�-compliant.
* Power used is <=1W when power supply
is less than 120V (all other power <=3W).
Zero power consumption in OFF mode can only be achieved by disconnecting the
mains cable from the display.
ENERGY STAR� is a U.S. registered mark. As an ENERGY
STAR� Partner, DELL has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR�
guidelines for energy efficiency.
You can install the display
in any Plug and Play-compatible system. The display automatically provides the
computer system with its Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) using Display
Data Channel (DDC) protocols so the system can configure itself and optimize
the display settings. If desired, the user can select different settings, but
in most cases display installation is automatic.
CAUTION: Read and follow the safety
instructions before cleaning the monitor.
CAUTION: Before cleaning the monitor, unplug
the monitor from the electrical outlet.
To clean your antistatic screen, lightly dampen a soft, clean cloth with
water. If possible, use a special screen-cleaning tissue or solution
suitable for the antistatic coating. Do not use benzene, thinner, ammonia, abrasive cleaners, or compressed
air.
Use a lightly-dampened, warm cloth to clean the plastics. Avoid using detergent of any
kind as some detergents leave a milky film on the plastics.
If you notice a white powder when you unpack your monitor, wipe it off
with a cloth. This white powder occurs during the shipping of the monitor.
Handle your monitor with care as darker-colored plastics may scratch and
show white scuff marks more than
lighter-colored monitor.
