Package Contents

Your LCD display package includes:

• Audio cable (stereo mini jack)

• Video cable

• ViewSonic Wizard CD-ROM

• Quick Start Guide

NOTE: 

The CD includes the User Guide PDF files and INF/ICM display optimization files.

Precautions

• Sit at least 18” from the LCD display.

Avoid touching the screen.

 Skin oils are

difficult to remove.

Never remove the rear cover.

 This LCD

display contains high-voltage parts. You
may be seriously injured if you touch
them.

• Avoid exposing the LCD display to direct

sunlight or another heat source. Orient the
LCD display away from direct sunlight to
reduce glare.

• Always handle the LCD display with care

when moving it.

• Place the LCD display in a well ventilated

area. Do not place anything on the LCD
display that prevents heat dissipation.

• Ensure the area around the LCD display is

clean and free of moisture.

• Do not place heavy objects on the LCD

display, video cable, or power cord.

• If smoke, an abnormal noise, or a strange

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

• Do not rub or apply pressure to the LCD

panel, as it may permanently damage the
screen.
