Important notes
In this chapter you will find information regarding safety which is essential to take note of
with your monitor.
!
Safety
This device complies with the relevant safety regulations for data processing equipment, including
electronic office machines for use in an office environment. If you have any questions, contact your
sales outlet or our Help Desk.
•
If the device is brought into the installation site from a cold environment, condensation can
form. Before operating the device, wait until it is absolutely dry and has reached approximately
the same temperature as the installation site.
•
During installation and before operating the device, please observe the instructions on
environmental conditions in the "Technical data" chapter as well as the instructions in the
"Installing an ergonomic video workstation" chapter.
•
•
To ensure adequate ventilation the monitor may only be operated with the monitor foot
installed.
The colour monitor must not be exposed to strong magnetic fields (e.g. caused by magnetic
paper clip holders or loudspeakers). Strong magnetic fields could result in a permanent blotchy
image.
•
The monitor is automatically degaussed when switched on. This results in a magnetic field
around the metal edge of the picture tube, which may damage the data on data carriers nearby.
Therefore, never keep magnetic data carriers near the monitor.
•
•
•
•
The device automatically sets itself to the correct voltage within the range from 220 V to 240 V.
Ensure that the local mains voltage lies within these limits.
The device must be installed in such a way that the user has good access to the appliance
socket.
The ON/OFF switch does not disconnect the device from the mains voltage. To completely
disconnect the mains voltage, remove the power plug from the socket.
Lay all cables so that nobody can stand on them or trip over them. When attaching the device,
observe the relevant notes in the chapter "Connecting the monitor".
•
•
No data transmission cable should be connected or disconnected during a thunderstorm.
Please ensure that no objects (e.g. necklaces, paperclips etc.) or liquids can get into the
interior of the device (this may cause an electrical shock or short circuit).
•
In emergencies (e.g. damaged casing, elements or cables, penetration of liquids or foreign
matter), switch off the unit, disconnect the power plug and contact your sales outlet or our Help
Desk.
•
Only qualified technicians should repair the device. Unauthorised opening and incorrect repair
may greatly endanger the user (electric shock, fire risk).

•
•
Always pull out the power plug before you clean the monitor.
Do not clean any interior parts yourself, leave this job to a service technician.
Do not use any cleaning agents that contain abrasives or may corrode plastic.
Ensure that no liquid will run into the system.
Ensure that the ventilation areas of the monitor are free.
When cleaning the surface of the screen, always use a soft, slightly damp cloth in order to
avoid scratching the glass.
Wipe the monitor casing with a dry cloth. If the monitor is particularly dirty, use a cloth which has
been moistened in mild domestic detergent and then carefully wrung out.
Transport
•
•
When transporting the monitor ensure that it is not exposed to strong magnetic fields.
Transport the monitor with care and only in its original packaging or another corresponding
packaging fit to protect it against knocks and jolts.
•
Above all, never drop the monitor. If the CRT is damaged, there is a risk of implosion!
X-ray radiation
This device complies with the German X-ray regulations (Röntgenverordnung - RöV). The local
dosage emitted is less than 1 µSv/h (micro-Sievert per hour) at a distance of 0.1m.

Energy Star Guidelines
The Fujitsu Siemens colour monitor 21P4 is designed to conserve
electricity by dropping to less than 3 W when it goes OFF mode. With this
new power management the 21P4 qualifies for the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency's (EPA) Energy Star Computers award.
The EPA estimates that computer equipment uses 5 percent of all business electricity and that this
is growing rapidly. If all desktop computers and peripherals enter a low-power mode when not in
use, the overall savings in electricity could amount to $ 2 thousand million annually. These savings
could also prevent the emission of 20 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere - the
equivalent of 5 million automobiles.
As an Energy Star Partner, Fujitsu Siemens Computers GmbH has determined that this product
meets the Energy Star guidelines for energy efficiency.

If your computer detects inactivity (no input) it sends an appropriate signal to the monitor to reduce
the power consumption. The power indicator of the monitor changes colour to indicate the status
change.
If there is still no input, power consumption is further reduced (OFF mode).
Once an input is made at the computer the screen contents are redrawn and full power is restored.
The length of the individual stages is determined by the power management system of the
computer. For detailed information on how energy-saving mode operates refer to the Operating
Manual or Technical Manual of the computer.
The service life of your monitor will be extended if the OFF mode is switched to after
30 minutes at the earliest (setting in screen saver or in your computer's BIOS setup).
i
When the monitor is switched to OFF mode by the power management system a power
consumption of up to 3 W is maintained to feed the circuit for redrawing the screen
contents.

Notes on ergonomic colour adjustment
If you select colours for the display in your application programmes, take note of the information
below.
The primary colours blue and red on a dark background do not produce the minimum required
contrast of 3:1 and are therefore not suitable for continuous text and data entry.
When using several colours for characters and background and giving the primary colours full
modulation, you can obtain very suitable colour combinations (see the following table):

Characters

Colour combination very suitable; light background colours are only suitable for devices which
are operated with a refresh rate of at least 75 Hz.
Colour combination not suitable because colour locations are too close together, thin
characters are not identifiable or rigorous focusing is demanded of the human eye.

VESA-DDC-compatible VGA interface
Your monitor is equipped with a VESA-DDC-compatible VGA interface. VESA-DDC (Video
Electronics Standard Association, Display Data Channel) is used as the communications interface
between the monitor and the computer. If your computer is equipped with a VESA-DDC-compatible
VGA interface, it can automatically read the data for ensuring optimum operation from your monitor
and select the appropriate settings.
If the monitor 21P4 is not yet displayed in the list of monitors, you can select one of the
following monitors instead:
Fujitsu Siemens, Siemens or Siemens Nixdorf 21P3, 21T1, MCM 2110, MCM 2111
