GettingStarted

Congratulations on your purchase of an ViewSonic VE150 color ViewPanel®!

Save the original box and all packing material for your future shipping needs.

The word "Windows®" in this user guide refers to the following Microsoft®

operating systems: Windows '95, Windows '98, Windows NT®(4.0).

Package Contents

Your ViewSonic®VE150 package includes the following:

•ViewSonic VE150 ViewPanel

• Video cable (15 pin mini D-sub connector)

• DC adapter

• Power cord

• User’s guide

• INF and ICM installation files on CD-ROM

IMPORTANT: The supplied INF file assures compatibility with Windows

operating systems, and the ICM (Image Color Matching) file ensures accurate

on-screen colors. ViewSonic recommends that you install both files: insert the

CD-ROM into your system, wait for it to auto-install, select “Monitor

Drivers,” and follow the on-screen instructions.

• Sit at least 18" from the ViewPanel.

• DO NOT APPLY PRESSURE TO THE SCREEN. The LCD screen is

very delicate.

• DO NOT TOUCH THE SCREEN DIRECTLY WITH YOUR

FINGERS. You may damage the screen, and oil from your skin is

difficult to remove.

• Avoid exposing the ViewPanel to direct sunlight or other heat source.

The ViewPanel should be facing away from direct sunlight to reduce

glare.

• Choose a well ventilated area to position your ViewPanel to allow

adequate dissipation of heat. Do not place anything on top of the

ViewPanel.

• Ensure the area around the ViewPanel is clean and moisture-free.

• If smoke, abnormal noise, or strange odor is present, immediately

switch the ViewPanel off and call your dealer. It is dangerous to

continue using the ViewPanel.

• Never remove the rear cover. The display unit contains high-voltage

parts. You may suffer electric shock if you touch these parts.

• Always handle your ViewPanel with care when moving it.
