Conserving energy
When you save energy, you save natural resources and reduce pollution. Your
Multiple Scan 15
AV Display includes features that automatically save energy.
You can increase the energy savings by turning your computer and monitor
off if you won’t be using them for a while—for example, overnight or over the
weekend.
You use the Energy Saver control panel to tell the monitor how to conserve
energy after a specified period of inactivity.
You can use the control panel if your monitor is connected to a computer that
complies with the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy
Star program. (Look for the EPA Energy Star logo on the box.)
