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 str uctural 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 pict ure quality, this
TV’s backlight setting is set to maximize the brightness of
the TV. However, uneven brightness may be observed when
the LED 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
tur n 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.

picture or the pictu re may become dark. It is not caused by a
failure. This condition will improve as the temperature rises.
When still pictu res 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

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 fi elds.
• Use only ViewSonic 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 fi rst 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
