Important Safety Instructions

Your HDTV is designed and manufactured to operate within defined design limits. Misuse may result in electric shock or fire. To prevent your HDTV from being damaged, the following rules should be observed for the installation, use, and maintenance of your HDTV. Read the following safety instructions before operating your HDTV. Keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference.

 To reduce the risk of electric shock or component damage, switch off the power before

connecting other components to your HDTV.

 Unplug the power cord before cleaning your HDTV. A damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning your

HDTV. Do not use a liquid or a spray cleaner for cleaning your HDTV. Do not use abrasive cleaners.

 Always use the accessories recommended by the manufacturer to insure compatibility.  When moving your HDTV from an area of low temperature to an area of high

temperature, condensation may form in the housing. Wait before turning on your HDTV to avoid causing fire, electric shock, or component damage.



Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by manufacturer or sold with your HDTV. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/HDTV combination to avoid injury from tip-over. Do not place your HDTV on an unstable cart, stand, or table. If your HDTV falls, it can injure a person and cause serious damage to your HDTV. Use only a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer or sold with your HDTV.

 A distance of at least three feet should be maintained between your HDTV and any heat source,

such as a radiator, heater, oven, amplifier etc. Do not install your HDTV close to smoke. Operating your HDTV close to smoke or moisture may cause fire or electric shock.

 Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure

reliable operation of your HDTV and to protect it from overheating, be sure these openings are not blocked or covered. Do not place your HDTV in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.

 Never push any object into the slots and openings on your HDTV cabinet. Do not place any

objects on the top of your HDTV. Doing so could short circuit parts causing a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquids on your HDTV.

 Your HDTV should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the label. If you

are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.

 Do not apply pressure or throw objects at your HDTV. This may compromise the integrity of the

display. The manufacturer’s warranty does not cover user abuse or improper installations.

 The power cord must be replaced when using different voltage than the voltage specified. For

more information, contact your dealer.

 Your HDTV is equipped with a three-pronged grounded plug (a plug with a third grounding

pin). This plug will fit only into a grounded power outlet. This is a safety feature. If your outlet

does not accommodate the three-pronged, have an electrician install the correct outlet, or use an adapter to ground your HDTV safely. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounded plug.

 When connected to a power outlet, power is always flowing into your HDTV. To totally disconnect

power, unplug the power cord.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is



intended to alert the user to the presence of un-isolated, dangerous voltage within the inside of your HDTV that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

 The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to

the presence of important operating and servicing instructions in the literature accompanying your HDTV.

 Do not overload power strips and extension cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric shock.

VIZIO E420VL / E470VL / E550VL User Manual

 The wall socket should be installed near your HDTV and easily accessible.  Only power of the marked voltage can be used for your HDTV. Any other voltage than the

specified voltage may cause fire or electric shock

 Do not touch the power cord during lightning. To avoid electric shock, avoid handling the power

cord during electrical storms.

 Unplug your HDTV during a lightning storm or when it will not be used for long period of time.

This will protect your HDTV from damage due to power surges.

 Do not attempt to repair or service your HDTV yourself. Opening or removing the back cover may

expose you to high voltages, electric shock, and other hazards. If repair is required, contact your dealer and refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

 Keep your HDTV away from moisture. Do not expose your HDTV to rain or moisture. If water

penetrates into your HDTV, unplug the power cord and contact your dealer. Continuous use in this case may result in fire or electric shock.

 Do not use your HDTV if any abnormality occurs. If any smoke or odor becomes apparent, unplug

the power cord and contact your dealer immediately. Do not try to repair your HDTV yourself.

 Avoid using dropped or damaged appliances. If your HDTV is dropped and the housing is

damaged, the internal components may function abnormally. Unplug the power cord immediately and contact your dealer for repair. Continued use of your HDTV may cause fire or electric shock.

 Do not install your HDTV in an area with heavy dust or high humidity. Operating your HDTV in

environments with heavy dust or high humidity may cause fire or electric shock.

 Follow instructions for moving your HDTV. Ensure that the power cord and any other cables are

unplugged before moving your HDTV.

 When unplugging your HDTV, hold the power plug, not the cord. Pulling on the power cord may

damage the wires inside the cord and cause fire or electric shock. When your HDTV will not be used for an extended period of time, unplug the power cord.

 To reduce risk of electric shock, do not touch the connector with wet hands.  Insert batteries in accordance with instructions. Incorrect polarities may cause the batteries to

leak which can damage the remote control or injure the operator.

 If any of the following occurs, contact the dealer:

o The power cord fails or frays. o Liquid sprays or any object drops into your HDTV. o Your HDTV is exposed to rain or other moisture. o Your HDTV is dropped or damaged in any way. o The performance of your HDTV changes substantially.

Television Antenna Connection Protection

External Television Antenna Grounding

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.

Lightning Pr

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.

Advisory of the DTV Transition

The nationwide switch to digital television broadcasting will be complete on June 12, 2009, but your local television stations may switch sooner. After the switch, analog-only television sets that receive TV programming through an antenna will need a converter box to continue to receive over-the-air TV. Watch your local stations to find out when they will turn off their analog signal and switch to digital-only broadcasting. Analog-only TVs should continue to work as before to receive low power, Class A or translator television stations and with cable and satellite TV services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products.

For additional information, contact the parties listed below, as appropriate:

Chapter 1 Setting Up Your HDTV

Finding a Location for Your HDTV

Here are some things you should consider when deciding on a proper location for your HDTV:

 The power consumption of your HDTV is about 57.1W (M320NV) and 56W (M370NV) (AVG)

 Use the included power cord.

 When an extension cord is required, use one with the correct power rating. The 3-pronged cord

must be grounded and the grounding feature (3rd prong) must not be compromised.

 Install your HDTV on a flat surface to avoid tipping.

 For proper ventilation, you must allow space between the back of your HDTV and the wall.

 Avoid installing your HDTV in places with high humidity, dust, or smoke so you do not shorten the

service life of the electronic components.

 Install your HDTV in a level, landscape orientation, with the VIZIO logo at the bottom to prevent

poor ventilation and excessive component damage.

 If you want to mount your HDTV on the wall, see below for additional information.

 Read this user manual carefully before installing your HDTV.

VIZIO offers professional installation services including home networking. Contact VIZIO for more information on these services at 877-MYVIZIO (877-698-4946) or www.VIZIO.com

Connector Description

HDMI delivers the best image quality of any of the cable types available

and it’s all done over one cable. You get a great picture and cut down on your cable clutter. HDMI provides digital quality and amazing sound so if your TV has HDMI, this is the connection type you should be using.

Connect your antenna or coaxial cable to watch TV programming. This cable usually comes from your cable box or right out of the wall.

The RGB (VGA) port allows you to connect your computer so you can use the TV as your monitor.

Component consists of three cables for transmitting video and two cables for transmitting audio: one red and one white. Component video provides a sharper image than Composite video and should be used instead of composite when possible. However, because it is still an analog connection, it won’t provide the high-quality video and audio that HDMI can produce.

Composite consists of one yellow cable for transmitting video and two

Note: To maintain the display quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable. This cable is available in 6, 8,

Wide Menu

Select how the picture displays on the screen. As you select an option, you will see the screen adjusting to the different sizes. The options vary depending on the selected input and the TV program:

Normal

The original 4:3 aspect ratio (1.33:1 source) is preserved, so black bars are added to the left and right of the display image. Standard TV broadcasts are displayed with a 4:3 Aspect Ratio. Movies in 4:3 Aspect Ratio may be referred to as pan-and-scan or full frame. These movies were originally filmed in 16:9 (widescreen), and then modified to fit a traditional TV screen (4:3).

Wide

Wide mode allows you to view the entire picture. This is recommended for HDMI and RGB (Computer) viewing so you can see the complete picture without the image overstretching beyond the viewing area. For 720p, 1080i, 1080p only.

Zoom

Zoom mode will "zoom in" to the center of the image, allowing 4:3 images to be viewed in original aspect ratio without stretching the black bars. The top and the bottom of the image are cropped out, though.

Panoramic

When watching a standard broadcast or full frame movie in this mode, the 4:3 Aspect Ratio (1.33:1 source) display image is stretched horizontally on the left and right sides to fill the TV screen. The center of the image is not stretched.

Stretch

When watching a widescreen program (1.78:1 source) with black bars on the sides, the display image will stretch to fill the TV screen. People will appear wider than they really are. If you are watching a widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1 source) program or movie, there will still be black bars at the top and bottom. This mode is available only when watching a widescreen program.

Chapter 10 Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Cleaning the TV and Remote Control

1. Remove the power adapter cable from the TV.

2. Use a soft cloth moistened with diluted neutral cleaner to clean the TV and remote control. VIZIO recommends using an HDTV cleaning solution which can be purchased at any major retailer.

3. Wring liquid out of the cloth before cleaning to prevent water from penetrating into the housing.

4. Wipe the TV and remote control with a dry cloth after cleaning.

Important:

 Do not use volatile solvent (such as toluene, rosin and alcohol). Such chemicals may damage the

housing, screen glass, and remote control, and cause labeling to peel.

 The screen glass is very fragile. Do not scrape it with any sharp object.

 Do not press or tap the screen to avoid cracking.

Troubleshooting Guide

If the TV fails or the performance changes dramatically, check the following troubleshooting guide for possible solutions. Remember to check the peripherals to pinpoint the source of the failure. If the display still fails to perform as expected, contact the VIZIO for assistance by calling 1-877-MYVIZIO (698-4946) or e-mail us at

techsupport@vizio.com.

fluorescent lights. If you have not mounted it on the wall, try moving your HDTV to another location to see if this is the cause of the problem.

 Check the connections of external devices that may be connected to the HDTV.

 Make sure the specifications of external devices meet the specifications of your

HDTV (like resolution).

 If you are using an antenna, the signal strength of the channel may be low. Make

sure your antenna is connected securely to the TV and move the antenna around the room or close to a window.

General TV Problems Solution

You can see a picture but you cannot hear sound.

The TV has pixels (dots) that are always dark or colored.

You see “noise” or “trash” on the screen.

You switch to a different input and the volume changes.

You switch to a different input and the screen size changes.

Tips for High-Definition Users.

Tips for Letterbox Content Users.

 Press Volume + (Up) on the remote control.

 Press MUTE on the remote control to make sure that MUTE is not ON.

 Check your audio settings. The audio may be set to SAP, or the speakers are set

to off.

 Check the audio connections of external devices that may be connected to the

HDTV.

 Your HDTV is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology,

however, sometimes some pixels of your HDTV may not display. Pixel defects within industry specifications are inherent to this type of product and do not constitute a defective product.

 When your HDTV’s digital capabilities exceed a digital broadcast signal, the signal

is up-converted (increased) to match your TV’s display capabilities. Up-converting can cause noise or trash.

 If you are using an antenna, the signal strength of the channel may be low. Make

sure your antenna is connected securely to the TV and move the antenna around the room or close to a window.

 The TV remembers the volume level from the last time you adjusted it. If the

sound level is higher or lower from another source, then the volume will change.

 The TV remembers the viewing mode from the last time you used a particular input

(AV-1, AV-2, Component, HDMI and TV).

 Your HDTV is an ideal platform for viewing High Definition Content.

 Best image quality will be achieved by HDMI. The next best is Component,

followed by Composite.

 Due to variances in broadcast practices, it is possible some image distortions can

occur.

 Some Letterboxed (or “Widescreen”) versions of DVD movies are formatted for

standard 4:3 Televisions. Your HDTV has the ability to expand this content so the entire screen is filled at the expense of image accuracy. To use this function, press ZOOM on the remote control to cycle among the options.

Media Viewer Problems

USB device is not recognized.

Image or sound is interrupted or distorted.

Slideshow doesn’t start.
