MyASUS Splendid
MyASUS Splendid ensures that all ASUS display panels show identical and accurate colors. You may select Vivid, Eye Care, or Manual Mode beside Normal Mode to adjust the display settings.
· Normal Mode: Through Gamma and Color temperature correction, the image output from the panel is as close as possible as what your eye can naturally see. For model with OLED panel, this mode is compliant with TÜV Low Blue Light Certication.
· Vivid Mode: This mode allows you to adjust the saturation of the image, making it more vivid and vibrant.
· Manual Mode: This mode allows you to adjust the color temperature value to your personal needs, ranging from -50 to +50.
· Eye Care Mode: This mode reduces blue light emission by up to 30%, helping to protect your eyes.
Level 1-5: The higher the level, the more blue light emission is reduced. For model with LCD panel, Level 5 is the optimized setting, and is compliant with TÜV Low Blue Light Certication.
NOTE: Enable HDR from Settings > System > Display for a better viewing experience with your OLED panel (on selected models), and is compliant with TÜV Flicker Free Certication.

Please refer to the following tips to alleviate eye strain:
· Take some time away from the display if working for long hours. It is advised to take short breaks (at least 5 minutes) after around 1 hour of continuous working at the computer. Taking short and frequent breaks is more eective than a long break.
· To minimize eye strain and eye dryness, rest your eyes periodically by focusing on objects that are far away.
· Repeat the following exercises to reduce eye strain:
(1) Look up and down repeatedly
(2) Slowly roll your eyes
(3) Move your eyes diagonally
If eye strain persists, please consult a physician.
· High energy blue light may lead to eye strain and AMD (AgeRelated Macular Degeneration). Blue light Filter reduces 30% (max.) harmful blue light to avoid CVS (Computer Vision Syndrome).

Internal Modem Compliancy
The Notebook PC with internal modem model complies with JATE (Japan), FCC (US, Canada, Korea, Taiwan), and CTR21. The internal modem has been approved in accordance with Council Decision 98/482/EC for pan-European single terminal connection to the public switched telephone network (PSTN). However due to dierences between the individual PSTNs provided in dierent countries, the approval does not, of itself, give an unconditional assurance of successful operation on every PSTN network termination point. In the event of problems you should contact your equipment supplier in the rst instance.
Overview
On 4th August 1998 the European Council Decision regarding the CTR 21 has been published in the Ocial Journal of the EC. The CTR 21 applies to all non voice terminal equipment with DTMF-dialling which is intended to be connected to the analogue PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network).
CTR 21 (Common Technical Regulation) for the attachment requirements for connection to the analogue public switched telephone networks of terminal equipment (excluding terminal equipment supporting the voice telephony justied case service) in which network addressing, if provided, is by means of dual tone multi-frequency signalling.

Network Compatibility Declaration
Statement to be made by the manufacturer to the Notied Body and the vendor: This declaration will indicate the networks with which the equipment is designed to work and any notied networks with which the equipment may have interworking diculties.”
Statement to be made by the manufacturer to the user: This declaration will indicate the networks with which the equipment is designed to work and any notied networks with which the equipment may have inter-working diculties. The manufacturer shall also associate a statement to make it clear where network compatibility is dependent on physical and software switch settings. It will also advise the user to contact the vendor if it is desired to use the equipment on another network.”
Up to now the Notied Body of CETECOM issued several pan-European approvals using CTR 21. The results are Europe’s rst modems which do not require regulatory approvals in each individual European country.
Non-Voice Equipment
Answering machines and loud-speaking telephones can be eligible as well as modems, fax machines, auto-dialers and alarm systems. Equipment in which the end-to-end quality of speech is controlled by regulations (e.g. handset telephones and in some countries also cordless telephones) is excluded.

This device meets the EU requirements (2014/53/EU) on the limitation of exposure of the general public to electromagnetic elds by way of health protection.
The limits are part of extensive recommendations for the protection of the general public. These recommendations have been developed and checked by independent scientic organizations through regular and thorough evaluations of scientic studies. The unit of measurement for the European Council’s recommended limit for mobile devices is the Specic Absorption Rate” (SAR), and the SAR limit is 2.0 W/Kg averaged over 10 gram of body tissue. It meets the requirements of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP).
For next-to-body operation, this device has been tested and meets the ICNIRP exposure guidelines and the European Standard EN 50566 and EN 62209-2. SAR is measured with the device directly contacted to the body while transmitting at the highest certied output power level in all frequency bands of the mobile device.
A minimum separation distance of 1 cm must be maintained between the user’s body and the device, including the antenna during body-worn operation to comply with the RF exposure requirements in Europe.
