* The monitor automatically degausses each time you turn it on, removing the build-up of
magnetic fields that can affect color purity and convergence. You can also degauss the
monitor by selecting Degauss from the menu shown in the next section of this guide. Do not
degauss repeatedly. Doing so can be harmful to the monitor. Wait 20 minutes between turning
the monitor off and on again.
