5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning the Monitor

To clean the monitor screen, gently wipe it with a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn marks, lightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild, non-abrasive screen cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals, alcohol, or ammonia-based cleaners, as these can damage the screen surface.

Keep the monitor in a well-ventilated area. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight, excessive heat, or moisture. Do not block the ventilation openings on the monitor. When moving the monitor, handle it carefully to prevent damage.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your monitor, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• No Power: Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the monitor and a working power outlet. Check if the power indicator light is on.
• No Signal: Verify that the video cable (HDMI or DisplayPort) is correctly connected to both the monitor and your computer. Ensure the correct input source is selected in the OSD menu.
• Image Flickering: This can sometimes be related to cable quality, graphics card drivers, or FreeSync settings. Try using a different, high-quality DisplayPort cable. Update your graphics card drivers. Experiment with FreeSync settings (on/off) or different overdrive settings in the OSD.
• Incorrect Resolution/Refresh Rate: Check your computer's display settings to ensure the resolution is set to 2560x1440 and the refresh rate to 144Hz. Ensure your video cable and graphics card support these settings.
