Connecting a monitor

You can connect many types of monitors to your Macintosh. To connect a
monitor, refer to the instructions that came with it in addition to the

Connecting the monitor power cord

Monitors have two cords to connect: a monitor power cord and a monitor
video cable.

To connect the monitor power cord, follow these steps:

1

Place the monitor where you’ll be using it.

You may place it on top of your computer. Keep these considerations in mind:
m Allow 3 or more inches for air circulation around the sides of the computer

and monitor.

m Position the monitor so the top of the screen is slightly below eye level

when you sit 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.
