Getting Started  
Before Using the ViewPanel®  
• Read Precautions on this page and Power Cord Safety Guidelines in the  
Appendix.  
• Read Setting the Timing Mode on page 6 before you adjust the  
ViewPanel. This will prevent you from making adjustments unnecessarily.  
Precautions  
For best viewing conditions sit at least  
18" from the ViewPanel.  
Place your ViewPanel in a well  
ventilated area. Do not place anything  
on the ViewPanel that prevents  
adequate dissipation of heat.  
AVOID TOUCHING THE SCREEN  
WITH YOUR FINGERS. Oils from  
the skin are difficult to remove.  
Ensure the area around the ViewPanel  
is clean and free of moisture.  
NEVER REMOVE THE REAR  
COVER. The ViewPanel contains  
high-voltage parts. You may suffer  
serious injury if you touch these  
parts.  
Do not place heavy objects on the  
ViewPanel, video cable, or power  
cord.  
If smoke, abnormal noise, or strange  
odor is present, immediately switch  
the ViewPanel off and call your dealer  
or ViewSonic. It is dangerous to  
Avoid exposing the ViewPanel to  
direct sunlight or another heat source.  
The ViewPanel should be facing away  
from direct sunlight to reduce glare.  
continue using the ViewPanel.  
Always handle your ViewPanel with  
care when moving it.

to the ViewPanel.  
Adjust brightness.  
Wrong or abnormal colors  
If any colors (red, green, or blue) are missing, check the video cable to  
make sure it is securely connected. Loose or broken pins in the cable  
connector could cause an improper connection.  
Connect the ViewPanel to another computer.  
Check ViewMatch® color menu for proper settings  
Entire screen image scrolls (rolls) vertically  
Make sure video input signals are within the ViewPanel's specified  
frequency range.  
Try the ViewPanel with another power source, graphics card, or computer  
system.  
Connect the video cable securely.  
Control buttons do not work  
Press only one button at a time.
