Getting Started

Congratulations on your purchase of a ViewSonic

®

 color monitor. 

Important! 

Save the original box and all packing material for future shipping needs. 

NOTE: 

The word “Windows” in this user guide refers to the following Microsoft 

operating systems: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows Me 
(Millennium Edition), Windows NT, and Windows XP. 

Package Contents 

Your

 

package includes:

• Color monitor
• DB-15 video cable
• Power cord
• ViewSonic Wizard CD-ROM

NOTE: 

The CD jacket contains the Quick Start Guide, and the CD includes User 

Guide PDF files and INF/ICM display optimization files. The INF file ensures 
compatibility with Windows operating systems, and the ICM file (Image Color 
Matching) ensures accurate on-screen colors. ViewSonic

 

recommends that you 

install both files.

Precautions

• For best viewing conditions sit at least 

18” from the monitor.

• AVOID TOUCHING THE SCREEN 

WITH YOUR FINGERS. Oils from the 
skin are difficult to remove.

• NEVER REMOVE THE REAR 

COVER. The monitor contains high 
voltage parts. You may suffer serious 
injury if you touch these parts. 

• Avoid exposing the monitor to direct 

sunlight or another heat source, 
including an open flame. The monitor 
should be facing away from direct 
sunlight to reduce glare.

• Always handle your monitor with care 

when moving it.

• Place your monitor in a well ventilated 

area. Do not place anything on the 
monitor that prevents adequate 
dissipation of heat.

• Ensure the area around the monitor is 

clean and free of moisture.

• Keep the monitor away from magnets, 

motors, transformers, speakers, and 
televisions. 

• Do not place heavy objects on the 

monitor, video cable, or power cord.

• If smoke, abnormal noise, or strange 

odor is present, immediately switch the 
monitor off and call your dealer or 
ViewSonic. It is dangerous to continue 
using the monitor.
