Precautions
• Sit at least 18" from your ViewPanel.
• Avoid touching the screen. Skin oils are
difficult to remove.
• Never remove the rear cover. Your
ViewPanel contains high-voltage parts. You
may be seriously injured if you touch them.
• Avoid exposing your ViewPanel to direct
sunlight or another heat source. Orient your
ViewPanel away from direct sunlight to
reduce glare.
• Always handle your ViewPanel with care
when moving it.
• Place your ViewPanel in a well ventilated
area. Do not place anything on your
ViewPanel that prevents heat dissipation.
• Ensure the area around the ViewPanel is clean
and free of moisture.
• 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 continue using the ViewPanel.
