If you have VESA�s DPMS compliance display card or software
installed in your PC, the monitor can automatically reduce its power consumption
when not in use. The monitor will automatically �wake-up� if the keyboard, mouse
or other input devices are detected. The following table shows the power consumption
and signaling of this automatic power saving feature:

This monitor is ENERGY STAR®-compliant and TCO�95
power management compatible.
* Zero power consumption in OFF mode can only
be achieved by disconnecting the power cable from the monitor.
ENERGY STAR® is a U.S. registered mark. As an ENERGY STAR®
Partner, DELL has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for
energy efficiency.
You can install the monitor in any Plug and Play-compatible system.
The monitor automatically provides the computer system with its Extended Display
Identification Data (EDID) using Display Data Channel (DDC) protocols so the system can
configure itself and optimize the monitor settings. If desired, the user can select
different settings, but in most cases monitor installation is automatic.
