If thin lines appear on the screen

(damper wires)

These lines do not indicate a malfunction; they are a normal
effect of the Trinitron picture tube with this monitor. These are
shadows from the damper wires used to stabilize the aperture grille.
The aperture grille is the essential element that makes a Trinitron
picture tube unique by allowing more light to reach the screen,
resulting in a brighter, more detailed picture.

Self-diagnosis function

This monitor is equipped with a self-diagnosis function. If there is
a problem with your monitor or computer(s), the screen will go
blank and the ! (power) indicator will either light up green or flash
orange. If the ! (power) indicator is lit in orange, the computer is
in power saving mode. Try pressing any key on the keyboard or
moving the mouse.

connectors, or turn off the connected computer(s).

2

3

Hold the control button upward for a few seconds
before the monitor enters power saving mode.

If all 4 color bars appear (white, red, green, blue), the monitor is
working properly. Reconnect the video input cables and check the
condition of your computer(s).
If the color bars do not appear, there is a potential monitor failure.
Inform your authorized Sony dealer of the monitor’s condition.

Turn the monitor OFF and then ON.

If the ! (power) indicator lights up green, the monitor is working
properly.

flashes of the ! (power) indicator and inform your authorized Sony
dealer of the monitor’s condition. Be sure to note the model name
and serial number of your monitor. Also note the make and model
of your computer and graphics board.
