Package Contents

Your

ViewSonic 

G655 

monitor

• Attached video cable with 15 pin high density mini D-sub connector
• Power cord
• User’s Guide
• INF and ICM installation files on CD-ROM or diskette

Getting Started

• 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. The
monitor should be facing away from
direct sunlight to reduce glare.

• Always handle your monitor with

care when moving it.

Precautions

• Choose a well ventilated area to

position your monitor. 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.

Getting Started

IMPORTANT:

 

The supplied 

INF file

 assures compatibility with Windows operating

systems, and the 

ICM file

 (Image Color Matching) ensures accurate on-screen colors.

ViewSonic

®

 recommends that you install both files.

 • For CD-ROM: Insert the CD-ROM into your system, wait for it to auto-install, select

“Monitor Drivers,” and follow the on-screen instructions.

• For diskette: Insert the diskette into your system, run 

install.exe, 

and follow the on-

screen instructions.
