5. Operating the Monitor
5.1 On-Screen Display (OSD) Navigation
The monitor features an On-Screen Display (OSD) menu for adjusting various settings. Typically, buttons located on the back or bottom edge of the monitor allow you to:
- Access the OSD Menu: Press the main OSD button.

- Select/Confirm: Press the main OSD button again to select an option or confirm a setting.

5.2 Adjusting Monitor Position
The NXM272KREG01 monitor stand offers ergonomic adjustments:
- Height Adjustment: Gently push or pull the monitor panel up or down to achieve your desired viewing height.
- Tilt Adjustment: Hold the top and bottom edges of the monitor panel and gently tilt it forwards or backwards to adjust the vertical viewing angle.
- Pivot Rotation: Rotate the monitor panel 90 degrees to switch between landscape and portrait orientation. Ensure there is enough clearance to prevent damage.
5.3 Using FreeSync
This monitor supports AMD FreeSync technology, which synchronizes the monitor's refresh rate with your compatible AMD graphics card's frame rate. This helps eliminate screen tearing and stuttering for a smoother gaming experience. To enable FreeSync:
- Ensure your computer has a compatible AMD graphics card and the latest drivers are installed.
- Enable FreeSync in the monitor's OSD menu.
- Enable FreeSync (or Adaptive Sync) in your AMD Radeon Software settings on your computer.
6. Care and Maintenance
- Cleaning the Screen: Gently wipe the screen with a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn marks, lightly dampen the cloth with water or a specialized screen cleaner (apply to cloth, not directly to screen).
- Cleaning the Casing: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the monitor casing. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Storage: If storing the monitor for an extended period, disconnect it from power, cover it to protect from dust, and store in a cool, dry place.
- Avoid Pressure: Do not press on the screen or place heavy objects on the monitor.
