Safety instructions
CAUTION: Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures other than
those specified in this documentation may result in exposure to shock,
electrical hazards, and/or mechanical hazards.
∞ Place the monitor on a solid surface and handle it carefully. The screen is fragile
and can be damaged if dropped or hit sharply.
∞ Always be sure that your monitor is electrically rated to operate with the AC
power available in your location.
∞ Keep the monitor in room temperature. Excessive cold or hot conditions can have
an adverse effect on the liquid crystal of the display.
∞ Do not subject the monitor to severe vibration or high impact conditions. For
example, do not place the monitor inside a car trunk.
∞ Unplug the monitor when it is going to be left unused for an extended period of
time.
∞ To avoid electric shock, do not attempt to remove any cover or touch the inside
of the monitor.

Product features
The Dell S3422DWG monitor has an active matrix, Thin-Film Transistor (TFT),
Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), anti-static, and LED backlight. The monitor features
include:
∞ 86.42 cm (34.0 in.) viewable area display (measured diagonally). 3440 x 1440
resolution, with full-screen support for lower resolutions.
∞ Supports the high refresh rates of 100 Hz and 144 Hz and a rapid response time
of 1 ms in MPRT mode.
NOTE: 1 ms is achievable in the MPRT mode to reduce visible motion blur and
increased image responsiveness. However, this may introduce some slight and
noticeable visual artifacts into the image. As every system setup and every
gamer’s needs are different, we recommend that users experiment with the
different modes to find the setting that is right for them.
∞ AMD FreeSync™ Premium Pro for Tear free, stutter free, low latency HDR
gaming.
∞ Color gamut of sRGB 99% and DCI-P3 90%.
∞ VESA DisplayHDR™ 400.

WARNING: The possible long-term effects of blue light emission from
the monitor may cause damage to the eyes, including eye fatigue, digital
eye strain, and so on. ComfortView feature is designed to reduce the
amount of blue light emitted from the monitor to optimize eye comfort.
WARNING: If provided with a 3-pin attachment plug on the power

cord, plug the cord into a grounded (earthed) 3-pin outlet. Do not disable
the power cord grounding pin, for example, by attaching a 2-pin adapter.
The grounding pin is an important safety feature.
WARNING: Please confirm the distribution system in building

installation shall provide the circuit breaker rated 120/240V, 20A
(maximum).

Plug and play capability
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. Most monitor installations are
automatic, you can select different settings if desired. For more information about
changing the monitor settings, see Operating your monitor.
LCD monitor quality and pixel policy

During the LCD Monitor manufacturing process, it is not uncommon for one or
more pixels to become fixed in an unchanging state which are hard to see and do
not affect the display quality or usability. For more information on Dell Monitor
Quality and Pixel Policy, see Dell Support site at www.dell.com/support/
monitors

Ergonomics
CAUTION: Improper or prolonged usage of keyboard may result in
injury.
CAUTION: Viewing the monitor screen for extended periods of time
may result in eye strain.
For comfort and efficiency, observe the following guidelines when setting up and
using your computer workstation:
∞ Position your computer so that the monitor and keyboard are directly in front of
you as you work. Special shelves are commercially available to help you correctly
position your keyboard.
∞ To reduce the risk of eye strain and neck/arm/back/shoulder pain from using the
monitor for long periods of time, we suggest you to:
1. Set the distance of the screen between 20 to 28 in. (50 - 70 cm) from your
eyes.
2. Blink frequently to moisten your eyes or wet your eyes with water after
prolonged usage of the monitor.
3. Take regular and frequent breaks for 20 minutes every two hours.
4. Look away from your monitor and gaze at a distant object at 20 feet away for
at least 20 seconds during the breaks.
5. Perform stretches to relieve tension in the neck, arm, back, and shoulders
during the breaks.
∞ Make sure that the monitor screen is at eye level or slightly lower when you are
sitting in front of the monitor.
∞ Adjust the tilt of the monitor, its contrast, and brightness settings.
∞ Adjust the ambient lighting around you (such as overhead lights, desk lamps, and
the curtains or blinds on nearby windows) to minimize reflections and glare on
the monitor screen.
∞ Use a chair that provides good lower-back support.
∞ Keep your forearms horizontal with your wrists in a neutral, comfortable position
while using the keyboard or mouse.
∞ Always leave space to rest your hands while using the keyboard or mouse.
∞ Let your upper arms rest naturally on both sides.
∞ Ensure that your feet are resting flat on the floor.

∞ When sitting, make sure that the weight of your legs is on your feet and not
on the front portion of your seat. Adjust your chair’s height or use a footrest if
necessary to maintain a proper posture.
∞ Vary your work activities. Try to organize your work so that you do not have to
sit and work for extended periods of time. Try to stand or get up and walk around
at regular intervals.
∞ Keep the area under your desk clear of obstructions and cables or power cords
that may interfere with comfortable seating or present a potential trip hazard.

Handling and moving your display
To ensure the monitor is handled safely when lifting or moving it, follow the
guidelines mentioned below:
∞ Before moving or lifting the monitor, turn off your computer and the monitor.
∞ Disconnect all cables from the monitor.
∞ Place the monitor in the original box with the original packing materials.
∞ Hold the bottom edge and the side of the monitor firmly without applying
excessive pressure when lifting or moving the monitor.
∞ When lifting or moving the monitor, ensure the screen is facing away from you
and do not press on the display area to avoid any scratches or damage.
∞ When transporting the monitor, avoid any sudden shock or vibration to it.
∞ When lifting or moving the monitor, do not turn the monitor upside down while
holding the stand base or stand riser. This may result in accidental damage to the
monitor or cause personal injury.

Maintenance guidelines
Cleaning your monitor
WARNING: Before cleaning the monitor, unplug the monitor power
cable from the electrical outlet.
CAUTION: Read and follow the Safety Instructions before cleaning the
monitor.
For best practices, follow the instructions in the list below while unpacking, cleaning
or handling your monitor:
• To clean your screen, lightly dampen a soft, clean cloth with water. If
possible, use a special screen-cleaning tissue or solution suitable for the anti-
static coating. Do not use benzene, thinner, ammonia, abrasive cleaners or
compressed air.
• Use a lightly-dampened cloth to clean the monitor. Avoid using detergent of
any kind as some detergents leave a milky film on the monitor.
• If you notice white powder when you unpack your monitor, wipe it off with a
cloth.
• Handle your monitor with care as the black-colored monitor may get
scratched and show white scuff marks.
• To help maintain the best image quality on your monitor, use a dynamically
changing screen saver and turn off your monitor when not in use.
