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.
