    Special notes on LCD monitors
    The following are normal with the LCD monitor and do not indicate a problem.
    •Due to the nature of the fluorescent light, the screen may flicker during 
    initial use. Turn off the power switch and then turn it on again to make 
    sure the flicker disappears.
    •You may find slightly uneven brightness on the screen depending on the 
    desktop pattern you use.
    •The LCD screen has 99.99% or more effective pixels. It may include 
    blemishes of 0.01% or less such as a missing pixel or a pixel lit all the time.
    •Due to the nature of the LCD screen, an  afterimage of the previous screen 
    may remain after switching the image, when the same image is displayed 
    for hours. In this case, the screen is  recovered slowly by changing the image 
    or turning off the power  switch for a few hours.
