Connecting a monitor
You can connect many types of monitors to your Macintosh. To connect a
monitor from a manufacturer other than Apple, refer to the instructions that
came with it.
Connecting the monitor power cord
Monitors have two cords to connect—a power cord and a monitor cable.
To connect the monitor power cord, follow these steps:
1
Place the monitor where you will be using it.
Keep these considerations in mind:
m The case of the computer is sturdy enough for you to place on top of it any
monitor with a screen that is 17 inches or smaller.
m Allow at least 3 inches for air circulation around the sides of the computer
and monitor.
m Make sure that the top of the screen is slightly below eye level when you’re
sitting at the keyboard.
m Position the monitor to minimize glare and reflections on the screen from
overhead lights and windows.
m Consult “Arranging Your Office” in Appendix A for suggestions on
positioning your computer equipment.
2
Connect the monitor power cord to the monitor.
On some monitors, the cord is already attached.
