Commercial Display Safety Precautions

Read these instructions carefully, keep them in a safe place, and follow all warnings and instructions.

General Safety Precautions

• Keep the remote control or loose batteries away from children and pets.

Installation

• Follow the manufacturer’s recommended installation guidelines to ensure safe and optimal operation.
• Do not place any heavy objects on the display or cables.
• Do not place the display in an unstable location. The display may fall, resulting in injury or damage.
• Do not use the display near open flames, sparks, or hot surfaces.
• Do not use the display near water or in humid conditions and avoid exposing it to rain or moisture.
• Do not expose the display to direct sunlight or other sources of sustained heat.
• Always route and manage cables connected to the display to prevent tripping, pulling, or grabbing.
• Place the display in a well-ventilated area. Do not place anything on the display that prevents heat dissipation.

Power Cord Safety

• Do not compress the power cord, particularly at the plug and at the point where it connects to the display.
• Do not use the display if the power cord or plug is damaged.
• The power cord is designed with a grounding prong to ensure safe operation. Do not remove or damage the grounding prong.
• Only use the original power cord and do not use damaged or modified cords.
• Unplug the display when it will be unused for long periods of time.

Handling

• When moving the display, handle it with care to avoid damage or injury.
• Only use attachments and accessories specifically designed and approved by the manufacturer to ensure compatibility and safety.
• To ensure the long-term performance and reliability of your display, please follow these handling, mounting, and storage recommendations. Placing the display in a horizontal position can potentially lead to several issues:
• Structural Stress: Horizontal placement can put excessive stress on the display’s frame, potentially causing cracks or distortions along the edges.
• Uneven Weight Distribution: This can warp the screen or cause internal damage over time.
• Heat Dissipation: The design of this display relies on gravity to aid in heat dissipation. Placing it horizontally may restrict airflow and lead to overheating, potentially causing damage.
• LCD Cell Integrity: Modifying the display’s orientation or attempting to disassemble it can damage the sensitive LCD cells, permanently affecting image quality.
• For best results, always mount, handle, transport, and store the display in a vertical position. Failure to do so may void the warranty and reduce the display’s lifespan. Damage resulting from improper handling or modification is not covered under warranty.

Troubleshooting

• If smoke appears, an abnormal noise, or a strange odor is present, immediately turn the display off and contact your reseller or ViewSonic. It is dangerous to continue using the display.
• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
• Do not disassemble the display. It contains electrical components that can cause shock.

Blue Light Filter and Eye Health

The monitor’s blue-light blocking technology helps reduce eye strain by minimizing blue-light emission, while maintaining the correct color balance, and eliminating screen flicks.

Below are some tips to help reduce the effect of eye strain:

• Take a five-minute break every one to two hours.
• Look away from the screen and gaze at distant objects when taking breaks.
• Do eye and neck exercises.
• Eye exercises: Gently move your eyes to the left, right, up, and down.
• Neck exercises: Gently stretch your neck by leaning forward, turning your head side to side.
