7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your monitor, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No image on screen | Power cable disconnected, video cable loose/disconnected, incorrect input source selected. | Check power connection. Ensure video cable (HDMI/DP/Type-C) is securely connected. Select correct input source via OSD menu. |
| Image flickering or unstable | Loose video cable, incorrect resolution/refresh rate, interference. | Ensure video cable is secure. Adjust resolution/refresh rate in your computer's display settings. Move away from other electronic devices. |
| No sound from speakers | Volume too low, audio cable not connected (if applicable), monitor muted, incorrect audio output selected on PC. | Increase monitor volume via OSD. Check PC audio settings. Ensure Type-C or HDMI cable carries audio. |
| 75Hz not working via Type-C | Type-C connection limitation. | The monitor does not support 75Hz refresh rate via Type-C. Use HDMI or DisplayPort for 75Hz. |
| Monitor makes noise when charging via Type-C | Electrical interference or power delivery issue. | If possible, use a separate power adapter for your laptop/device instead of relying on the monitor's Type-C power delivery. If the issue persists, contact support. |
