rain or moisture, does not operate normally or has been
dropped.

• Unplug the power cord before cleaning your TV.

• When moving your TV from an area of low temperature
to an area of high temperature, condensation may form
in the housing. Wait before turning on your TV to avoid
causing fire, electric shock, or component damage.

• A distance of at least three feet should be maintained
between your TV and any heat source, such as a radiator,
heater, oven, amplifier etc. Do not install your TV close to
smoke. Operating your TV close to smoke or moisture may
cause fire or electric shock.

TELEVISION ANTENNA CONNECTION
PROTECTION

If an outside antenna/satellite dish or cable system is to be
connected to the TV, make sure that the antenna or cable system
is electrically grounded to provide some protection against
voltage surges and static charges.

Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPSA 70,
provides information with regard to proper grounding of the
mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to
an antenna discharge unit, size of the grounding conductors,
location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements of the grounding electrode.

Ground Clamp

Lightning Protection

For added protection of the TV during a lightning storm or when
it is left unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug
the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable
system.

Power Lines

Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits,
or where it could fall into such power lines or circuits. Remember,
the screen of the coaxial cable is intended to be connected to
earth in the building installation.

INSPECTING THE PACKAGE CONTENTS

Before installing your new TV, take a moment to inspect the
package contents. Use the images below to ensure nothing is
missing or damaged.

VIZIO LED HDTV with Stand

INSTALLING THE TV

After removing the TV from the box and inspecting the package
contents you can begin installing the TV. Your TV can be installed
in two ways:

• On a flat surface, using the included stand

• On a wall, using a VESA-standard wall mount (not
included)

Installing the TV Stand

Your TV includes a stand designed to support the weight of the
TV and keep it from falling over. However, the TV can still fall over if:

• It is placed on an uneven, unstable, or non-level surface

• It is pushed, pulled, or otherwise improperly moved

• If an earthquake occurs and the TV is not properly
secured

• Stretch expands the display image to fill the screen.

Images may appear wider than intended. If you are
watching widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1) content, black
bars will still appear on the top and bottom of the display
image. This option is only available when the TV is

with HDMI cables.

• If you are using an antenna, the signal strength of the
channel may be low. Ensure your antenna is connected

inherent to this type of product and do not constitute a
defective product.

I see “noise” or static on the screen.

• When your TV’s digital capabilities exceed a
digital broadcast signal, the signal is up-converted
(improved) to match your TV’s display capabilities. This
up-converting can sometimes cause irregularities in the
image.
