specifications and troubleshooting information for your further assistance.
The User’s Manual also describes how to custom ise the display settings so that you can gain the 
best viewing experience possible to suit your preferences and viewing environment.
2. Unpack the display
The display carton disconnects from its base and lifts off over the top of the display. Follow the 
instructions on the carton to remove the upper carton from the base.
If you haven’t done so already, carefully unpack the display and accessories (located in the top

English
All LCD screens have a very thin protective layer of glass which is liable to marking or 
scratching, and cracking if struck or pressured. The liquid crystal substrate is also liable to 
damage under excessive force or extreme temperatures. Please handle with care.
3. Select and prepare the installation location
In order to prevent potential dangers and prolong the service life of the display, please observe 
the following points when installing, operating and cleaning the display.
Once all considerations and precautions have  been made, position the display where most 
suitable. Do NOT place the display on an 
uneven, sloping or unstable surface 
where it may fall and cause damage to 
itself or others.
If recessed into a wall opening, you 
must leave at least 50–100mm free 
space both top and bottom for 
ventilation.
Do NOT place the display near water, 
like a spa or pool, or in a position 
which will allow the splashing or 
spraying of water onto the display, like 
in front of an open window where rain 
water may enter. If wall mounting, allow at least 30mm 
space on top for attaching the display to 
the wall bracket. It slides in and down 
onto the bracket from above.
Do NOT place the display near or 
above sources of heat, such as radiators, 
heaters, fuel stoves and other heat-
generating items (including audio 
amplifiers). Do NOT cover or block the vents and 
openings whilst the display is switched 
on. 
Do NOT place the display in direct sun 
or where direct sun or spot lighting will 
shine onto the display, as the heat may 
damage the display and the bright light 
will make viewing the display more 
difficult than necessary. Do NOT place the display in an 
enclosed place without allowing for 
ventilation.
If wall mounting, have a suitable 
qualified and experienced tradesperson 
mount it safely. Ensure that the 
mounting bracket (optional accessory) 
is securely screw fixed to the wall 
structure, and not just the wall render, 
lining or cladding. Do not glue the 
bracket to the wall. Use only a 
recommended BenQ TV wall bracket 
for this model display. Ensure the 
bracket is level horizontally.

4. Connect the antenna cable
Connect a TV antenna cable fly-lead from your  TV antenna system or Cable TV (CATV) to the 
antenna input on the rear of the display.
Check to make sure that all cable connections are correct and firmly in place. For best 
reception, you should have a properly aligned outdoor antenna system.
5. Connect the power cable
1. Locate the power cable from the packaging, unwrap it, and plug the appropriate end into 
the AC input socket on the rear of the display (as illustrated below).
2. Connect the other end into an appropriate wall power outlet, and switch it on (if switched). 
The display will enter standby mode and the power indicator (on the front lower right) will 
light up red.
• The type of power cable plug and socket illustrated may differ from the type used in your region.
• Only use an appropriate power cable for your region. Never use a power cable which appears  damaged or frayed. Never change the plug type on a power cable. Be aware of total loading 
when using extension cords or multiple outlet power boards.
WARNING: This BenQ LCD display has been engi neered and manufactured with the highest 
priority on safety, however IMPROPER USE CAN RESULT IN POTENTIAL ELECTRICAL SHOCK 
OR FIRE HAZARD.

6. Activate the remote control
Locate the remote control and batteries from the packaging, and unwrap them.
Remote control usage tips
Point and aim the top front of the Remote Control directly at the display when pressing the 
buttons. Do not cover the sensor window on the front of the display (beside the power indicator 
lamp), or place objects in front of it which will  block the direct line-of-sight between the Remote 
Control and the display sensor window.
• Do not let the remote control become wet, or place it in humid environments (like bathrooms.) 
• If the remote control sensor window on the disp lay is in direct sunlight or strong light, the 
remote control may not operate properly. In this situation, change the light source or readjust 
the angle of your display, or operate the remote control from a location closer to the remote 
control sensor window on the display.
Turn the remote control end up to reveal its base, and open the 
lid of the battery compartment by using a small coin or 
similarly curved object to rotate the slot 90° anticlockwise.
The lid is spring loaded and will popup and come loose from 
the remote control body.
Insert the batteries (supplied) ensuring that the positive and 
negative marked battery terminals match the (+) and (-) 
marks in the battery compartment.
Note that these batteries are provided for your convenience so 
that you can operate the display straight away. You should 
replace them as s oon as possible.
Refit the lid of the battery compartment by inserting the hinge 
into the recess at one edge and levering the lid down into 
position with the thumb of the hand holding the remote 
control body.
Whilst holding the lid in place in  this manner, use your other 
hand and a small coin or similarly shaped object to rotate the 
locking slot 90° clockwise locking the lid in place.

 Test the remote control
7. Initialise the display
When first turned on (and until tuned), the  First Turn On menu will display:   
The display uses the selections you make in this  menu to determine which menu language to 
display and which TV station programs to search for and tune appropriate to the region you 
selected. This process need only ever be done once.
1. You can use the  left, right,  up and  down buttons on the remote control or the 
display to navigate through the menu, and use the  OK button on the remote control or the 
Input  button on the display to make each selection.
2. When you select a ‘Language’, the ‘Country’ and TV ‘Standard’ items will change 
automatically to suit. You can select from English, Français, Nederlands, Deutsch, Italiano 
and Español.
• Once you’ve selected a ‘Language’, if your country is not displayed in the ‘Country’ item, you  can select one from UK, France, Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria, Belgium, 
Luxemburg, Switzerland, Portugal, or Others.
• If ‘Others’ is selected as the ‘Country’, you will also need to select the TV broadcast standard  suitable for your region from BG, DK, I or L.
3. After you’ve chosen your ‘Language’, ‘Country’ and TV ‘Standard’, select the ‘Auto  Installation’ menu item and then press the  OK button on the remote control. After a short 
pause, the display will start searching for availa ble programs and tune, sort and store them 
for you. This may take several minutes, depending on the available TV programs in your 
local reception area. Please allow the di splay to complete this tuning process.
Press the 
Power button on the remote control. The display should turn 
on, and the power indicator change to green. If so, progress to the next 
step ( 7. Initialise the display ) below.
If the display does not turn on, first check that the power is available 
(the power indicator will be lit red). 
If so, try pressing the power button  on the right of the top edge of the 
display. If the display turns on by th is method, the problem lies with the 
remote control.
Secondly, check that the remote control batteries are properly installed. 
If need be, replace the batteries with new ones or known good ones.
See the troubleshooting section at the rear of the User’s Manual for 
further assistance.
To turn off the display, press the  Power button on the top of the display, 
or the  Power  button on the remote control again, and the display will 
return to standby mode (the power indicator will turn red.)
