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.
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.
DTV Transition Advisory
The nationwide switch to digital television broadcasting was complete on June
12, 2009. Analog-only television sets that receive TV programming through an
antenna now 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.

Your TV comes with a built-in tuner capable of processing digital
broadcasts. No extra converter box is needed.

VIZIO LCD 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at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
Your TV comes in the box with the base already attached. Use the
following instructions if you need to reattach the base.
To install the TV stand:
1. Place the TV screen-down on a clean,
flat surface. To prevent scratches or
damage to the screen, place the TV on
a soft surface, such as carpet, rug, or
blanket.
2. Align the stand with the holes on the
back of the TV.

1E422VL/E472VL/E552VL
Be sure the mount you choose is capable of supporting the weight of the TV. After
you have determined that you have the correct mount for your TV, you can begin
the installation.
To install your TV on a wall:
1. Disconnect any cables connected to
your TV.
2. Place the TV face-down on a clean,
flat, stable surface. Be sure the surface
is clear of debris that can scratch or
damage the TV.
3. Using a philips-head screwdriver,
remove the base by loosening and
removing the screws.
4. Attach your TV and wall mount to the
wall, carefully following the instructions
that came with your mount.
Use only with a UL-listed wall
mount bracket rated for the weight/
load of this TV. See
Appendix A -
Specifications
for the weight of this TV.
3. Using a philips-head screwdriver,
attach the base to the TV by inserting
and tightening the included screws.
4. Move the TV with attached stand into
an upright position and place on a flat,
level, and stable surface.
5. To ensure proper ventilation, leave at
least 1” of space between the back of
the TV and any other objects (walls,
etc).
Installing the TV on a Wall
To mount your TV on a wall, you will need a wall mount. Consult the information
below to find the appropriate mount for your TV model:

The picture is distorted.
• Nearby electrical devices may be interfering with the TV. Separate the
TV from electrical appliances, cars, or ourescent lights.
• Ensure all cables are securely attached.
The display image does not cover the entire screen.
• If you are in RGB mode (computer), ensure that H-Size and V-Position
in the on-screen menu are set correctly.
• If you are using TV, AV1, AV2, or Component with 480i input, press
the WIDE button on the remote to change the screen mode.
The TV has pixels (dots) that are always dark or always lit.
• Your HDTV is precision-manufactured using an extremely high level
of technology. However, sometimes pixels may not display correctly.
These types of occurences are 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.
• If you are using an antenna, the signal strength of the channel may be
low. Ensure your antenna is connected securely to the TV and move
the antenna around the room or close to a window for the best signal.
When I change input source, the volume changes.
• The TV remembers the volume level on each input source. If the
volume level on the new input source is higher or lower than the level
on the source you switch from, the difference may be noticable.
• Use the Volume Up/Down buttons on the remote to adjust the
volume.
When I change input source, the display image changes size.
• The TV remembers the viewing mode on each input source. If the
viewing mode on the new input source differs from the one on the
input source you switch from, the difference may be noticable.

INABILITY TO USE THE VIZIO SOFTWARE OR VIA SERVICES, HOWEVER
CAUSED, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT OR
OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF VIZIO HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SUCH DAMAGES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY FOR PERSONAL INJURY, OR OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. In no event shall
VIZIO’s total liability to you for all damages (other than as may be required by
applicable law in cases involving personal injury) exceed the amount of twenty
five dollars ($25.00). The foregoing limitations will apply even if the above stated
remedy fails of its essential purpose.
