WARNING
NOTIFICATION
Installation
Do not expose this TV to rain or mois-
ture. It may increase the risk to fire or
electronic shock.
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 protec-
tion 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 inter-
ference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particu-
lar 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:
• 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 sud-
denly, 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 illumina-
tion or sunlight. We recommend you
use spot lighting directed down from
the ceiling or to cover the windows
that face the screen with opaque cur-
tains. It is better that TV is installed
where the floor and walls are not of a
reflective material.
Dangerous Voltage:
The lightning flash with
arrowhead
symbol,
within an equilateral tri-
angle, is intended to alert
the user to the presence
of dangerous voltage
within the inside of the

ficient level to constitute
a risk of electric shock to
persons.
• 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.

tant operating and servic-
ing instructions in the

Broken pieces
VOLUME ADJUSTMENT
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.
• 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-
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 bright-
ness of the TV. However, uneven brightness may be
observed when the LCD TV is viewed in a dark environ-
ment 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 manage-
ment.
• 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.
Handling of broken glass and liquid crys-
tal 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, poi-
soning 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 thor-
oughly with water and consult your doctor.
SERVICING
Do not attempt to repair the TV
yourself, since opening the cabinet
may expose you to dangerous volt-
age 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 manu-
facturer that have the same characteristics as the
original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may
cause a fire, an electric shock or other hazards.
• Spraying insect repellent with volatile material on the
screen will cause damage.
• Do not make prolonged contact with rubber or plastic
material.
Safety check
Upon completion of repairs to the TV, ask the ser-
vice 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.

• 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 ser-
vice 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.
• 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.
