VG2457V Initial Setup
Installing the Stand
- Place the box on a flat, stable surface, open the front flap of the box, and remove the top tray.
- Remove the monitor stand’s base and neck. Align and connect the three points on the monitor stand’s base with the monitor stand’s neck.
- Use the captured screw in the monitor stand’s base and secure it to the monitor stand’s neck.
- Align and slide the upper hooks of the monitor stand into the stand mounting slots.
- Note: Ensure the stand is secure and the quick release tab positively clicks into place.
- Using the stand’s handle, lift the monitor out of the box and into its upright position on a flat, stable surface.
- Note: Always place the monitor on a flat, stable surface. Failure to do so may cause the monitor to fall and damage the monitor and/or result in personal injury.

Using the Security Slot
To help prevent the monitor from being stolen, use a security slot locking device to secure the monitor to a fixed object.
Additionally, fastening the monitor to a wall or fixed object using a security cable can help support the weight of the monitor in order to prevent the monitor from falling over.
Below is an example of setting up a security slot locking device on a table.
