If the screen is difficult to read
CHECK THE MONITOR SETTINGS — See the monitor documentation for instructions on
adjusting the contrast and brightness, demagnetizing (degaussing) the monitor, and running the
monitor self-test.
MOVE THE SUBWOOFER AWAY FROM THE MONITOR — If your speaker system includes a
subwoofer, ensure that the subwoofer is at least 60 cm (2 ft) away from the monitor.
MOVE THE MONITOR AWAY FROM EXTERNAL POWER SOURCES — Fans, fluorescent
lights, halogen lamps, and other electrical devices can cause the screen image to appear "shaky."
Turn off nearby devices to check for interference.
ROTATE THE MONITOR TO FACE A DIFFERENT DIRECTION — Eliminate sunlight glare,
which can cause poor picture quality.
