Information

Note: Changes to the magnetic eld around a monitor can distort the picture on the screen. The magnetic eld may change whenever you tilt or swivel the monitor dramatically, or when you bring a magnetized object close to the monitor. Your monitor has a feature called automatic degaussing that immediately counteracts the effects of sudden changes in the magnetic eld. However, most monitors degauss only when they are rst turned on so if you leave your monitor turned on over long periods (more than 3 days), its a good idea to degauss the monitor yourself. This ensures that you are getting the best quality picture possible. To degauss your monitor, select the Degauss icon and press the Enter button. The monitor may make a crackling sound when you degauss it; this is normal.

If your computer system does cause interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures: m Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops. m Move the computer to one side or the other of the television or radio. m Move the computer farther away from the television or radio. m Plug the computer into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the computer and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.) If necessary, consult an Apple-authorized service provider or Apple. See the service and support information that came with your Apple product. Or, consult an experienced radio/television technician for additional suggestions. Important Changes or modications to this product not authorized by Apple Computer, Inc., could void the FCC certication and negate your authority to operate the product. This product was tested for FCC compliance under conditions that included the use of Apple peripheral devices and Apple shielded cables and connectors between system components. It is important that you use Apple peripheral devices and shielded cables and connectors between system components to reduce the possibility of causing interference to radios, television sets, and other electronic devices.
