Clean only with a dry cloth.
Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including ampliers) that produce heat.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two
blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not t into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
Only use attachments/accessories specied by the manufacturer.
Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specied by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the
cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as when the power supply cord or plug is
damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
To reduce the risk of electric shock or component damage, switch o the power before connecting other components to your Unit.
Unplug the power cord before cleaning your Unit. A damp cloth is sucient for cleaning. Do not use a liquid or a spray cleaner on your Unit. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Always use the accessories recommended by the manufacturer to insure compatibility.
When moving your Unit from an area of low temperature to an area of high temperature, condensation may form in the housing. Wait before turning on your Unit to avoid
causing re, electric shock, or component damage.
Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of your Unit and to protect it from overheating, be sure these
openings are not blocked or covered. Do not place your Unit in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.
Never push any object into the slots and openings on your Unit enclosure. Do not place any objects on the top of your Unit. Doing so could short circuit parts causing a re or
electric shock. Never spill liquids on your Unit.
WARNING: Exposure to loud sounds can damage your hearing causing hearing loss and tinnitus (ringing or buzzing in the ears). With continued exposure to loud noises, ears may
become accustomed to the sound level, which may result in permanent damage to hearing without any noticeable discomfort.
When connected to a power outlet, power is always owing into your Unit. To totally disconnect power, unplug the power cord.
Do not overload power strips and extension cords. Overloading can result in re or electric shock.

English - 18
Your sound bar supports music streaming from smartphones, tablets, and computers with Bluetooth capability.
Device compatibility will vary, see your device’s documentation for more information.
Once you have paired your source device to the sound bar, as long as you stay within range of the sound bar,
your device should remain paired.
If the input is changed, the Bluetooth device will disconnect.
If the source is changed back to Bluetooth, any paired Bluetooth device will reconnect automatically.
Maximizing Signal
A Bluetooth signal has a range of up to 30 feet. Keep in mind that Bluetooth is a compressed audio format, so
streamed music may lose some integrity when compared to a wired connection.
Try the following if your sound quality is less than optimal:
If you hear any break-up or disconnect while streaming music from your device, move the source device
closer to the sound bar.
Be sure that there are no solid obstructions in the line-of-sight between the sound bar and the source
device.
Other wireless devices can a ect Bluetooth range, including wireless security cameras, wireless video
baby monitors, cordless phones, and microwave ovens. Turning o or moving these devices may improve
Bluetooth range.
Your sound bar is not equipped with a microphone,
so it cannot operate as a hands-free device for a
smartphone.
Reduce the volume levels on your device and on the
sound bar before pressing Play. High volume levels
can damage your hearing.

What to Do If You Are Not Satised With Service
If you feel VIZIO has not met its obligations under this warranty, you may attempt
to resolve the issue informally with VIZIO. If you are unable to resolve the issue
informally and wish to le a formal claim against VIZIO, and if you are a resident of
the United States, you must submit your claim to binding arbitration according to
the procedures described below, unless an exception applies. Submitting a claim to
binding arbitration means that you do not have the right to have your claim heard by
a judge or jury. Instead your claim will be heard by a neutral arbitrator.
Binding Arbitration Agreement; Class Action Waiver (U.S. Residents Only)
UNLESS YOU HAVE BROUGHT AN ELIGIBLE CLAIM IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT OR
HAVE OPTED OUT AS DESCRIBED BELOW, ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM RELATING
IN ANY WAY TO YOUR VIZIO PRODUCT, INCLUDING ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS WARRANTY, A BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY,
OR THE VIZIO PRODUCT’S SALE, CONDITION OR PERFORMANCE, WILL BE SETTLED
BY BINDING ARBITRATION ADMINISTERED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION
ASSOCIATION AND CONDUCTED BY A SINGLE ARBITRATOR APPOINTED BY THE
AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMMERCIAL
ARBITRATION RULES AND ITS SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER-RE-
LATED DISPUTES. You may learn more about the American Arbitration Association
and its rules for arbitration by visiting www.adr.org or by calling 800-778-7879. Since
this warranty concerns a transaction in interstate or international commerce, the
Federal Arbitration Act will apply.
The ling fees to begin and carry out arbitration will be shared between you and
VIZIO, but in no event will your fees ever exceed the amount allowable by the
American Arbitration Association, at which point VIZIO will cover all additional
administrative fees and expenses. VIZIO waives its right to recover attorneys’ fees in
connection with any arbitration under this warranty. If you are the prevailing party
in an arbitration to which the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related
Disputes applies, then you are entitled to recover attorneys’ fees as the arbitrator
may determine.
The dispute will be governed by the laws of the state or territory in which you
resided at the time of your purchase (if in the United States). The place of arbitration
will be Irvine, California, or your county of residence (if in the United States). The
arbitrator will have no authority to award punitive or other damages not measured
by the prevailing party's actual damages, except as may be required by statute. The
arbitrator will not award consequential damages, and any award will be limited to
monetary damages and will include no equitable relief, injunction, or direction to
any party other than the direction to pay a monetary amount. Judgment on the
award rendered by the arbitrator will be binding and nal, except for any right of
appeal provided by the Federal Arbitration Act, and may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction. Except as may be required by law, neither you nor VIZIO nor an
arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration under this
warranty without the prior written consent of you and VIZIO.
ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION, IN COURT, OR OTHERWISE, WILL BE
CONDUCTED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. VIZIO AND YOU AGREE THAT
NO PARTY WILL HAVE THE RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE
ARBITRATED AS A CLASS ACTION, A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR IN
ANY OTHER PROCEEDING IN WHICH EITHER PARTY ACTS OR PROPOSES TO ACT IN A
REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY.
NO ARBITRATION OR PROCEEDING WILL BE JOINED, CONSOLIDATED, OR COMBINED
WITH ANOTHER ARBITRATION OR PROCEEDING WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN
CONSENT OF ALL PARTIES TO ANY SUCH ARBITRATION OR PROCEEDING.
Exceptions to Binding Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver
IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THE BINDING ARBITRATION
AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER, THEN: (1) you must notify VIZIO in
writing within sixty (60) days of the date that you purchased the product; (2) your
written notication must be mailed to VIZIO at 39 Tesla, Irvine, CA 92618, Attn: Legal
Department; and (3) your written notication must include (a) your name, (b) your
address, (c) the date you purchased the product, and (d) a clear statement that you
wish to opt out of the binding arbitration agreement and class action waiver.
In addition, you may pursue a claim in small claims court in your county of residence
(if in the United States) or in Orange County, California. In such case the provisions
of the section titled “Binding Arbitration Agreement; Class Action Waiver (U.S.
Residents)” will not apply.

WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THOSE DESCRIBED ABOVE. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES,
