1. Precautions and Safety Notices
1.1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This monitor is manufactured and tested on a ground principle that a user’s safety comes
first. However, improper use or installation may cause damage to the monitor as well as
the user. Carefully go over the following WARNINGS before installing and keep this guide
handy.
WARNINGS
.This monitor should be operated only at the correct power sources indicated on the label
on the rear end of the monitor. If you’re unsure of the power supply in your residence,
consult you local dealer or power company.
.Use only the special power adapter that comes with this monitor for power input.
.Do not try to repair the monitor your self as it contains no user-serviceable parts. This
monitor should only be repaired by a qualified technician.
.Do not remove the monitor cabinet. There is high-voltage parts inside that may cause
electric shock to human bodies, even when the power cord is unplugged.
.Stop using the monitor if the cabinet is damaged. Have it checked by a service technician.
.Put your monitor only in a clean, dry environment. If it gets wet, unplug the power cable
immediately and consult your service technician.
.Always unplug the monitor before cleaning it .Clean the cabinet with a clean, dry cloth.
Apply non-ammonia based cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the glass screen.
.Keep the monitor away from magnetic objects, motors, TV sets, and transformer.
.Do not place heavy objects on the monitor or power cord.
1.2 PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE
Many electrical and mechanical parts in this chassis have special safety visual inspections
and the protection afforded by them cannot necessarily be obtained by using replacement
components rated for higher voltages, wattage, etc. Before replacing any of these
components read the parts list in this manual carefully. The use of substitute replacement
parts which do not have the same safety characteristics as specified in the parts list may
create shock, fire ,or other hazards.
1.3 SERVICE NOTES
1. When replacing parts or circuit boards, clamp the lead wires around terminals before
soldering.
2. When replacing a high wattage resistor(more than 1W of metal oxide film resistor) in
circuit board, keep the resistor about 5mm away from circuit board.
3. Keep wires away from high voltage, high temperature components and sharp edges.
4. Keep wires in their original position so as to reduce interference.
5. Usage of this product please refer to also user’s manual.

1.4 HANDING AND PLACING METHODS
Correct Methods: Incorrect Methods:
Only touch the metal frame of the LCD
panel or the front cover of the monitor. Do
not touch the surface of the polarizer.
Surface of the LCD panel is pressed by fingers
and that may cause “Mura.”
Take out the monitor with cushions
Taking out the monitor by grasping the LCD
panel. That may cause “Mura.”

Place the monitor on a clean and soft foam
pad.
Place the monitor on the lap, the panel
surface must be upwards.
Placing the monitor on foreign objects. That
could scratch the surface of the panel or cause
“Mura.”
The panel is placed facedown on the lap. That
may cause “Mura.”

Do the following to adjust the display setting:
1. To display the Main Menu, press button [1].
NOTE: All OSD menus and adjustment screens disappear automatically after about 15
seconds. This is adjustable through the OSD timeout setting in the setup menu.
2. To select a control to adjust, press ▲or ▼ to scroll up or down in the Main Menu.
3. After the desired control is selected, press button [2]. A control screen like the one
shown below appears.
The line at the bottom of the screen shows the
current functions of buttons 1 and 2: Exit or
select the Brightness control.
4. To adjust the control, press the up ▲ or▼ down T buttons.
5. To save the adjustments and exit the menu, press button [1] twice.
The following tips may help you optimize your display:
• Adjust the computer's graphics card so that it outputs a 1024 x 768 @ 60Hz video
signal to the LCD display. (Look for instructions on “changing the refresh rate” in the
graphics card's user guide.)
• If necessary, make small adjustments using H. POSITION and V. POSITION until the
screen image is completely visible
should barely touch the illuminated “active area” of the LCD display.)

Main Menu Controls
Adjust the menu items shown below by using the up S and down T buttons.
ControlExplanation
Auto Image Adjust automatically sizes, centers, and fine tunes the video signal
to eliminate waviness and distortion. Press the [2] button to obtain a sharper
image.
NOTE: Auto Image Adjust works with most common video cards. If this
function does not work on your LCD display, then lower the video refresh rate
to 60 Hz and set the resolution to its pre-set value.
Contrast adjusts the difference between the image background (black level)
and the foreground (white level).
Brightness adjusts background black level of the screen image.
Color Adjust provides several color adjustment modes, including preset color
temperatures and a User Color mode which allows independent adjustment of
red (R), green (G), and blue (B). The factory setting for this product is 6500K
(6500 Kelvin).
sRGB-This is quickly becoming the industry standard for color management,
with support being included in many of the latest applications. Enabling this
setting allows the LCD display to more accurately display colors the way they
were originally intended. Enabling the sRGB setting will cause the Contrast and
Brightness adjustments to be disabled.
9300K-Adds blue to the screen image for cooler white (used in most office
settings with fluorescent lighting).
6500K-Adds red to the screen image for warmer white and richer red.
5400K-Adds green to the screen image for a darker color.

ControlExplanation
User Color Individual adjustments for red (R), green (G),and blue (B).
1. To select color (R, G or B) press button [2].
2. To adjust selected color, pressSandT.
Important: If you select RECALL from the Main Menu when the product is
set to a Preset Timing Mode, colors return to the 6500K factory preset.
Information displays the timing mode (video signal input) coming from the
graphics card in the computer, the LCD model number, the serial number, and
the ViewSonic® website URL. See your graphics card’s user guide for
instructions on changing the resolution and refresh rate (vertical frequency).
NOTE: VESA 1280 x 1024 @ 60Hz (recommended) means that the resolution
is 1280 x 1024 and the refresh rate is 60 Hertz.
Manual Image Adjust displays the Manual Image Adjust menu.
H. Size (Horizontal Size) adjusts the width of the screen image.
H./V. Position (Horizontal/Vertical Position) moves the screen image left or
right and up or down.

ControlExplanation
Fine Tune sharpens the focus by aligning text and/or graphics with pixel
boundaries.
NOTE: Try Auto Image Adjust first.
Sharpness adjusts the clarity and focus of the screen image.
Setup Menu displays the menu shown below:
Language Select allows the user to choose the language used in the menus and
control screens.
Resolution Notice displays the Resolution Notice menu shown below.
Resolution Notice advises the optimal resolution to use.
OSD Position allows the user to move the OSD menus and control screens.
OSD Timeout sets the length of time the OSD screen is displayed. For example,
with a “15 second” setting, if a control is not pushed within 15 seconds, the
display screen disappears.
OSD Background allows the user to turn the OSD background On or Off.
Memory Recall returns the adjustments back to factory settings if the display is
operating in a factory Preset Timing Mode listed in the Specifications of this
manual.
Exception: This control does not affect changes made with the User Color
control, Language Select or Power Lock setting.
