Declaration of Conformity
Trade Name: ViewSonic Model: N1630w Responsible Party: ViewS­onic Corporation Address: 381 Brea Canyon Road, Walnut, CA. 91789 USA Telephone Number: 1-800-688­6688 This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and 2) this device must accept any interfer­ence received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
NOTIFICATION
This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protec­tion against harmful interference in a residential installation. This device generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful inter­ference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particu­lar installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the device and receiver.
• Connect the device into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Pursuant to FCC regulations, be cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this manual could void your authority to operate this equipment.
Safety
• Operate the TV on 120V and 240 V AC only.
• Use the AC power cord specified by ViewSonic and suitable for the volt­age where you use it.
• The plug is designed, for safety pur­poses, to fit into the wall outlet only one way.
• If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact your dealer.
• If any liquid or solid object should fall inside the cabinet, stop operat­ing, unplug the TV immediately and have it checked by qualified service technician.
• If you will not be using the TV for a long time, disconnect the power by pulling the plug itself. Do not pull on the cord.
• For details concerning safety precau­tions, refer to Important Safety instructions on page 4.
Installation
• The TV should be installed near an easily accessible power outlet.
• To prevent internal heat buildup, do not block the ventilation openings.
• Do not install the TV in a hot or humid place, or in a place subject to excessive dust or mechanical vibration.
• Avoid operating the TV at temperatures below 41ºF (5ºC).
• When the TV is transported directly from a cold to a warm location, or if the room temperature changes sud­denly, the picture may be blurred or show poor color due to moisture condensation. In this case, please wait a few hours before turning on the TV, in order to let the moisture evaporate first.
• To ensure best picture quality, do not expose the screen to direct illumina­tion or sunlight. We recommend you use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling or to cover the windows that face the screen with opaque cur­tains. It is better that TV is installed where the floor and walls are not of a reflective material.
To Customers
To install the specified TV, sufficient expertise is required. Make sure you subcontract the installation to ViewS­onic dealer or licensed contractors and pay adequate attention to safety during the installation.
Note
This television includes a QAM demodulator, which should allow you to receive unscrambled digital cable television programming via subscrip­tion service to a cable service provider. The type of programming and signal provided by your cable service pro­vider will affect the availability of digi­tal cable television programming in your area.

The TV should be installed near an easily accessi­ble AC power outlet. Observe the following to prevent the TV from falling from the stand or wall mount.
• Place the TV on a stable, level surface.
• Do not hang anything on the TV. Do not allow children to climb on the TV.
• Do not install the TV in places subject to extreme temperature, such as in direct sun­light, near a radiator, or heating vent. If the TV is exposed to extreme temperature, the TV may overheat and cause deformation of the enclosure or cause malfunction.
• Do not install the TV in a place exposed to direct air condi­tioning. If the TV is installed in such a location, moisture may condense inside and may cause a malfunction.
• Do not place the TV in hot, oily, humid or excessively dusty places.
• Do not install the TV where insects may enter.
• Do not install the TV where it may be exposed to mechanical vibration.
• Do not install the TV in a location where it may spear up, such as on or behind a pillar, or where you might bump your head on it. It may cause injury.
Preventing the TV from toppling over
To prevent the TV from toppling over, secure the TV to a wall or stand.
Placement for watching
We suggest you to watch the TV at a distance of 3-7 times that of the screen height, and not in excessive brightness. It is easy to cause eye fatigue if you watch TV for too long or in a dark room. To obtain clear picture, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or sunlight. Use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling if you can.
Use in outdoor
This TV is not designed for out­doors installation. Do not expose the TV to rain, as it may result in a fire or an electric shock. Also, do not expose the TV to direct sunlight, as it may heat up and become damaged.
Vehicle, ships and other vessels
Do not install this TV in a vehicle. Car accidents may cause the TV to fall down and cause injury. Do not install this TV in a ship or vessel. If the TV is exposed to seawater, it may cause a fire or damage the TV.
Medical institutions
Do not place this TV in a place where medical equipment is in use. It may cause the medical equipment to malfunction.

VOLUME ADJUSTMENT

• Adjust the volume to avoid disturbing your neighbors. Sound carries easily at night. Therefore, we suggest you close the windows or use headphones.
• When using headphones, adjust the volume to appropriate levels, or hearing damage may result.

LCD SCREEN

• Although the LCD screen is made with high precision technology and has effective pixels of 99.99% or more, black dots or bright points or light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly on the LCD screen. This is a struc-
English
tural property of the LCD panel and is not a malfunction.
• The LCD screen is made with high-precision technology. To achieve a high level of performance and picture quality, this TV’s backlight setting is set to maximize the bright­ness of the TV. However, uneven brightness may be observed when the LCD TV is viewed in a dark environ­ment without an input source or a blank screen. This is a normal condition, not a malfunction of the TV. To improve this condition, change the Picture mode, Backlight setting, enable the Light Sensor, or turn on the Power manage­ment.
• Avoid exposing the LCD screen surface to direct sunlight. It is likely to damage the LCD panel.
• Do not push or scratch the LCD screen, or place objects on top of the TV. The image may be uneven or the LCD panel may be damaged.
• If the TV is used in a cold place, a smear may occur in the picture or the picture may become dark. It is not caused by a failure. This condition will improve as the temperature rises.
• When still pictures are displayed continuously, ghosting may occur. It should disappear after a short period of time.
• The screen and cabinet get warm when the TV is in use. This is a normal condition.
• Spraying insect repellent with volatile material on the screen will cause damage.
• Do not make prolonged contact with rubber or plastic material.
Broken pieces
Do not throw anything at the TV. Doing so may break the screen glass and cause serious injury. If the surface of the TV cracks, unplug the AC power cord before touching the TV. Otherwise electric shock may result.
Handling of broken glass and liquid crys­tal leakage
If the LCD panel gets damaged, crystalline liquid leakage may occur, or scattered broken glass may result. Do not touch broken glass or crystalline liquid which is toxic, with bare hands as cuts, poi­soning or skin irritation may occur. Also do not glass fragments or leaked crystalline liquid get into your eyes or mouth. Should either contacted your eyes or mouth, rinse the contacted area thor­oughly with water and consult your doctor.
SERVICING
Do not attempt to repair the TV yourself, since opening the cabinet may expose you to dangerous volt­age or other hazards. Ask qualified service personnel to do the servicing for your TV.
Replacement parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician certifies in writing that he/she has used replacement parts specified by the manu­facturer that have the same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may cause a fire, an electric shock or other hazards.
Safety check
Upon completion of repairs to the TV, ask the ser­vice technician to perform routine safety checks (as specified by the manufacturer) to determine that the TV is safe for operating, and to so certify. Ask a qualified service technician to dispose of the TV.
For Customers in the United States
There is mercury in the lamp of this product. Disposal of these materials may be regulated due to environmental considerations. For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance (http//www.eiae.org).

Mounting ViewSonic LCD TV to the wall

The LCD TV can be used in a free standing position or wall-mounted. Before installing the product to the wall, please consider the following guidelines:
• Read the Important Safety Instructions, at the start of this manual.
• Do not install in a moist or wet environment. This equipment is intended for indoor use.
• Do not install near heat source, or strong magnetic fields.
• Use only UL approved wall-mounting brackets to support the LCD TV weight.
• Before attaching the wall mount plate to the back cover, ensure the product is working.
• If your LCD TV is already set up for free-standing operation, you need to first remove
the stand before mounting the device to the wall.
To attach the wall-mount bracket to LCD TV safely, please use the following guidelines:
• Disconnect the power and any other cables that might hinder moving the LCD TV.
• Set the LCD TV on a table or work surface, placing the screen face down on a towel or
woolen blanket to protect the screen surface from damage while installing plate.
• Before installing the LCD TV on the wall, ensure you have recorded the product serial
number on page (i) of the User Guide, as you will need the serial number to request ser­vice should there be a service need.
• Install the wall mount plate to the LCD TV using screws NO LONGER than 10mm, as
longer screws found in universal (non-ViewSonic) wall mount kits may damage the power supply causing the unit to fail. The wall-mount screw type is M4 x L10.
English
• Mount the wall mount bracket to the wall ensuring use of proper screws to support the
installation. Ensure there is at least 3cm of space surrounding any air-vents of your LCD TV to allow adequate cooling during operation.
• Hang the LCD TV wall mount plate to the wall mount bracket, completing installation.
Enjoy your ViewSonic LCD TV!
