Monitor Installation
• The monitor is designed for interior use only and must be mounted in a dry location.
• Install the monitor on a surface that will support a minimum of 9lbs.
• Choose a location a minimum of 16” from any speakers to reduce the chance of screen
distortion from the speaker’s magnetic field.
• Do not install the monitor in a location that is subject to extreme heat or humidity (air
duct, radiator, etc.). or a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, heavy vibration,
or intense shock.
1a. The mounting bracket for the monitor comes
equipped with an adhesive back for easy mounting.
Simply peel the backing off the adhesive and firmly
press the base against your mounting surface. The
slotted base allows the “fingers” to flex for maximum
adhesion to contoured surfaces.
Optional

1b. If your mounting surface is not conducive to the
use of the adhesive pad, optional screw holes are
provided. Use appropriate hardware (not
