Troubleshooting

Monitor does not turn on

Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the monitor and the power outlet. Try a different power outlet. Check if the power button is being pressed correctly.

No image displayed on screen

Verify that the video cable (HDMI or VGA) is securely connected to both the monitor and the computer. Ensure the correct input source is selected on the monitor. Restart your computer and the monitor.

Screen flickering or showing lines

Check the video cable for damage and ensure it is properly seated. If using FreeSync, ensure your graphics card drivers are up to date. Try a different cable if possible.

Poor image quality or washed-out colors

Adjust the brightness, contrast, and color settings via the monitor's OSD menu. Ensure the display resolution and refresh rate are set correctly in your operating system's display settings.

AMD FreeSync not working

Confirm that your graphics card is compatible with FreeSync and that the latest drivers are installed. Ensure FreeSync is enabled in your graphics card's control panel and on the monitor's OSD settings.
