Important safety information
A power cord is included with the monitor. If you use another cord, use only a power source and
connection appropriate for this monitor. For information about the correct power cord set to use with the
monitor, see the Product Notices provided on the web at: http://www.hp.com/go/regulatory.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:
Plug the power cord into an AC outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
•
If the power cord has a three-pin attachment plug, plug the cord into a grounded (earthed)
•
three-pin outlet.

unplugging the power cord from the AC outlet, grasp the cord by the plug.
For your safety, do not place anything on power cords or cables. Take care to route all cords and cables
connected to the monitor so that they cannot be stepped on, pulled, grabbed, or tripped over.
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the Safety & Comfort Guide available on the web at
https://hyperx.gg/ergo. It describes proper workstation setup and proper posture, health, and work
habits for computer users. The Safety & Comfort Guide also provides important electrical and
mechanical safety information.
IMPORTANT: For the protection of the monitor and the computer, connect all power cords for the
computer and its peripheral devices (such as a monitor, printer, scanner) to a surge protection device
such as a power strip or uninterruptible power supply (UPS). Not all power strips provide surge
protection; the power strip must be specifically labeled as having this capability. Use a power strip
whose manufacturer offers a damage replacement policy so that you can replace the equipment if surge
protection fails.
Use the appropriate and correctly sized furniture designed to properly support your monitor.
