Getting Started
Congratulations on your purchase of a ViewSonic®color monitor. Important!
Save the original box and all packing material for future shipping needs.
NOTE: The word “Windows” in this user guide refers to the following Microsoft
operating systems: Windows 95, Windows NT, Windows 98, Windows 2000,
Windows Me (Millennium), and Windows XP.
Package Contents
Yo u r package includes:
• Color monitor
• DB-15 video cable
• Power cord
• ViewSonic Wizard CD-ROM
NOTE: The CD jacket contains the Quick Start Guide, and the CD includes the
User Guide PDF files and INF/ICM display optimization files. The INF file
ensures compatibility with Windows operating systems, and the ICM file (Image

you install both files.
Precautions
• For best viewing conditions sit at least
18" from the monitor.
• AVOID TOUCHING THE SCREEN
WITH YOUR FINGERS. Oils from the
skin are difficult to remove.
• NEVER REMOVE THE REAR
COVER. The monitor contains high
voltage parts. You may suffer serious
injury if you touch these parts.
• Avoid exposing the monitor to direct
sunlight or another heat source,
including an open flame. The monitor
should be facing away from direct
sunlight to reduce glare.
• Always handle your monitor with care
when moving it.
• Place your monitor in a well ventilated
area. Do not place anything on the
monitor that prevents adequate
dissipation of heat.
• Ensure the area around the monitor is
clean and free of moisture.
• Keep the monitor away from magnets,
motors, transformers, speakers, and
televisions.
• Do not place heavy objects on the
monitor, video cable, or power cord.
• If smoke, abnormal noise, or strange
odor is present, immediately switch the
monitor off and call your dealer or
ViewSonic. It is dangerous to continue
using the monitor.

Using the Monitor
Setting the Timing Mode
Setting the timing mode is important for maximizing the quality of the
screen image and minimizing eye strain. The timing mode consists of the
resolution (example 1600 x 1200) and refresh rate (or vertical frequency;
example 75 Hz). After setting the timing mode, use the OnView®controls
to adjust the screen image.
For the best picture quality set your monitor timing mode to:
VESA 1600 x 1200 @ 75 Hz or 85 Hz
To set the Timing Mode:
1Set the resolution: Right-click on the Windows desktop > Properties >
Settings > set the resolution.
2Set the refresh rate: See your graphic card's user guide for instructions.
WARNING: Do not set the graphics card in your computer to exceed the
maximum refresh rate; doing so may result in permanent damage to your CRT
display.
