Gateway VX760/VX765 Monitor

Setting up the monitor

Read all instructions before using the monitor and save them for later use. Follow all
warnings and instructions marked on the product.

To set up the monitor:

■ Attach the base

■ Connect the video and power cables

To attach the base:

1 Carefully set the monitor on its side.
2 Hold the base with the tab facing the back of the monitor and align the hooks on

the base with the corresponding slots on the bottom of the monitor.

3 Slide the base toward the front of the monitor so all hooks are securely in place. A

retaining latch built into the base clicks into place when the base is correctly attached.

4 Carefully set the monitor upright and place it on a sturdy, level surface.

To connect the video and power cables:

1 Position the monitor and your computer so you can easily get at the back panel of

each. Make sure that all power cables can reach a correctly grounded electrical outlet.

Caution The openings in the monitor cabinet are for ventilation. Do not block

or cover these openings. Do not insert anything into these openings.
If you put the monitor in a bookcase or some other enclosed space,
make sure to leave at least 6 inches (15 cm) around it for ventilation.

2 Connect the video cable to the matching (blue) video port on the back of your

computer.

3 Tighten the screws on the video cable connector to keep it from coming loose.

Tightening the screws also prevents radio and TV interference.

4 Connect the power cable that came with the monitor to the AC power connector on

the back of the monitor. Only use the power cable that came with the monitor.
