Troubleshooting
Hood does not attach securely
Ensure there are no obstructions or debris on the monitor bezel or the magnetic attachment points of the hood. Verify you are using a compatible EIZO monitor model.
Visible reflections still present
Adjust the position of your light sources or the monitor itself. Ensure the hood is fully seated and all edges are sealed against the monitor bezel. Check that the interior non-reflective material is clean.
Hood feels loose or wobbly
Re-seat the hood, ensuring the magnets engage fully. If the issue persists, check for any damage to the magnetic strips on the hood or the monitor bezel.
Scratch marks on the monitor bezel after installation/removal
Be careful during installation and removal. Ensure the monitor surface is clean. If minor scratches occur, they are typically cosmetic and do not affect performance.
