This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and 2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

NOTIFICATION

This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This device generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

◇ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
◇ Increase the separation between the device and receiver.
◇ Connect the device into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
◇ Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Pursuant to FCC regulations, be cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this manual could void your authority to operate this equipment.

Safety

◇ Operate the TV only on 120 – 240 V AC.

◇ Use the AC power cord specified by ViewSonic and suitable for the voltage where you use it.
◇ The plug is designed, for safety purposes, to fit into the wall outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact your dealer.
◇ If any liquid or solid object should fall inside the cabinet, stop operating, unplug the TV immediately and have it check by qualified service technician.

◇ If you will not be using the TV for a long time, disconnect the power by pulling the plug itself. Do not pull on the cord.
◇ For details concerning safety precautions, refer to “Important Safety instructions” on page 3.

Installation

◇ The TV should be installed near an easily accessible power outlet.

When the TV is transported directly form a cold to a warm location, or if the room temperature changes suddenly, the picture may be blurred or show poor color due to moisture condensation. In this case, please wait a few hours before turning on the TV, in order to let the moisture evaporate first.
To ensure best picture quality, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or sunlight. We recommend you use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling or to cover the windows that face the screen with opaque curtains. It is better that TV is installed where the floor and walls are not of a reflective material.

To Customers

To install the specified TV, sufficient expertise is required. Make sure you subcontract the installation to ViewSonic dealer or licensed contractors and pay adequate attention to safety during the installation.

Do not hang anything on the TV. Do not allow children to climb on the TV.

VIEWSONIC N4285P - Placement - 1

Do not install the TV in places subject to extreme temperature, such as in direct sunlight, near a radiator, or heating vent. If the TV is exposed to extreme temperature, the TV may overheat and cause deformation of the enclosure or cause malfunction. Do not install the TV in a place exposed to direct air conditioning. If the TV is installed in such a location, moisture may condense inside and may cause a malfunction.

◇ Do not place the TV in hot, oily, humid or excessively dusty places.

◇ Do not install the TV where insects may enter.

Do not install the TV where it may be exposed to mechanical vibration.

Do not install the TV in a location where it may spear up, such as on or behind a pillar, or where you might bump your head on it. It may cause injury.

Preventing the TV from toppling over

To prevent the TV from toppling over, secure the TV to a wall or stand.

Placement for watching

We suggest you to watch the TV at a distance of 3-7 times that of the screen height, and not in excessive brightness. It is easy to cause eye fatigue if you watch TV for too long or in a dark room. To obtain clear picture, do not expose the screen to direct illumination or sunlight. Use spot lighting directed down from the ceiling if you can.

Use in outdoor

This TV is not designed for outdoors installation. Do not expose the TV to rain, as it may result in a fire or an electric shock. Also, do not expose the TV to direct sunlight, as it may heat up and become damaged.

VIEWSONIC N4285P - Use in outdoor - 1

Vehicle, ships and other vessels

Do not install this TV in a vehicle. Car accidents may cause the TV to fall down and cause injury.

Do not install this TV in a ship or vessel. If the TV is exposed to seawater, it may cause a fire or damage the TV.

VIEWSONIC N4285P - Vehicle, ships and other vessels - 1

Medical institutions

Do not place this TV in a place where medical equipment is in use.

It may cause the medical equipment to malfunction.

VOLUME ADJUSTMENT

◇ Adjust the volume to avoid disturbing your neighbors. Sound carries easily at night. Therefore, we suggest you close the windows or use headphones.
When using headphones, adjust the volume to appropriate levels, or hearing damage may result.

LCD SCREEN

Although the LCD screen is made with high-precision technology and has effective pixels of 99.99% or more, black dots or bright points or light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly on the LCD screen. This is a structural property of the LCD panel and is not a malfunction.
The LCD screen is made with high-precision technology. To achieve a high level of performance and picture quality, this TV's backlight setting is set to maximize the brightness of the TV. However, uneven brightness may be observed when the LCD TV is viewed in a dark environment without an input source or a blank screen. This is a normal condition, not a malfunction of the TV. To improve this condition, change the Picture mode, Backlight setting, enable the Light Sensor, or turn on the Power management.
◇ Avoid exposing the LCD screen surface to direct sunlight. It is likely to damage the LCD panel.
Do not push or scratch the LCD screen, or place objects on top of the TV. The image may be uneven or the LCD panel may be damaged.
◇ If the TV is used in a cold place, a smear may occur in the picture or the picture may become dark. This does not indicate a failure. These phenomena improve as the temperature rises.
When still pictures are displayed continuously, ghosting may occur. It should disappear after a short period of time.
◇ The screen and cabinet get warm when the TV is in use. This is a normal condition.
◇ Spraying insect repellent with volatile material on the screen will cause damage.
◇ Do not make prolonged contact with rubber or plastic material.

Broken pieces

Do not throw anything at the TV. Doing so may break the screen glass and cause serious injury.

If the surface of the TV cracks, unplug the AC power cord before touching the TV.

Otherwise electric shock may result.

VIEWSONIC N4285P - Broken pieces - 1

Handling of broken glass and liquid crystal leakage

If the LCD panel gets damaged, crystalline liquid leakage may occur, or scattered broken glass may result. Do not touch broken glass or crystalline liquid which is toxic, with bare hands as cuts, poisoning or skin irritation may occur. Also do not glass fragments or leaked crystalline liquid get into your eyes or mouth. Should either contacted your eyes or mouth, rinse the contacted area thoroughly with water and consult your doctor.

SERVICING

Do not attempt to repair the TV yourself, since opening the cabinet may expose you to dangerous

voltage or other hazards. Ask qualified service personnel to do the servicing for your TV.

Replacement parts

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician certifies in writing that he/she has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may cause a fire, an electric shock or other hazards.

Safety check

Upon completion of repairs to the TV, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks (as specified by the manufacturer) to determine that the TV is safe for operating, and to so certify. Ask a qualified service technician to dispose of the TV.
