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 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.

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.

Setting Up Your HDTV
Note: We strongly recommend that two people perform the setup and assembly due to the weight and
size of the TV.
•
•
Read this user manual carefully before installing your HDTV.
The power consumption of your HDTV is about 144W (AVG) for the SV421XVT and 204W (AVG)
for the SV471XVT. Use the included power cord. When an extension cord is required, use one
with the correct power rating. The cord must be grounded and the grounding feature must not be
compromised.
•
•
•
•
Your HDTV should be installed on a flat surface to avoid tipping.
For proper ventilation, you must allow space between the back of your HDTV and the wall.
If you want to mount your HDTV on the wall, see below for additional information.
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.
VIZIO offers professional installation services. Contact VIZIO for more information on these services at
Wall Mounting your HDTV
Your HDTV can be mounted on the wall for viewing. If
you choose to mount your HDTV on the wall, follow the
instructions below.
1. Remove the stand base and neck:
a. Disconnect the cables from your HDTV.
b. Place your HDTV face down on a soft, flat
surface to prevent damage to the screen.

VIZIO SV421XVT & SV471XVT User Manual
Attaching the safety strap
When your HDTV is not mounted on the wall, use the included safety strap to attach the HDTV to the wall
to reduce the chance of the HDTV being pulled over. The Safety Strap should be used with common
sense practice such as ensuring that children (or adults) do not climb up, grabbing the top of the HDTV
and pulling it onto themselves.
1.
Attach one end of the strap to the wall:
•
If you have a drywall finish attach it to a stud, using a
washer underneath the screw head.
•
If you have a solid wall you should use a lag bolt, again
using a washer under the nut.
2.
Attach the other end of the Safety Strap to
one of the upper wall mounting holes on
the back of the HDTV, using a washer
under the screw head.

Description
HDMI provides an interface between any audio/video
source, such as a set-top box, DVD player, or A/V receiver
and a digital television (DTV), over a single cable.

Best
RGB PC (VGA) – This is most commonly used for PC input.
(analog)
Component - Component video provides a sharper image
than composite video and S-video because the three video
signals are transmitted via three separate channels.
Better
(analog)
S-Video (AV1) - Combining the three video signals into two
channels, S-Video provides
a
sharper image than
Good
Composite video, but is not as good as Component video.
(analog)
Composite (AV1 & 2) - All three video signals are combined
into one channel, thus making the image less sharp than
Component or S-Video.

Brightness
The Brightness adjusts the black levels in the picture. If the brightness is too
low you will not be able to see the detail in darker parts of the picture and if
the brightness is too high the picture will look washed out.
Contrast
The Contrast adjusts the white levels in the picture. If the contrast is too low
the picture will look washed out and if the contrast is too high you will not be
able to see any detail in the bright parts of a picture.
Color
Color adjusts the amount of color in the picture.
Tint
The Tint adjusts the hue of the picture. The easiest way to set tint is to look at flesh tones and adjust for a
realistic appearance. In most cases, the default middle position is correct. If people’s faces look too
orange try reducing the level of color first.
Sharpness
The Sharpness adjustment adjusts the sharpness of the edges of elements in the picture. It does not
produce detail that otherwise does not exist. This adjustment is helpful when viewing (Standard

Color Enhancement
This feature increases the picture reproduction performance of the
picture by reducing oversaturation of certain colors and improving
flesh tones. Choose from Off, Normal, Rich Color, Green/Flesh, and
Green/Blue setting.
Advanced Adaptive Luma

a blue-hued image. The Computer setting sets the white point at the established setting for a PC
display (9300K). Each preset may also be adjusted for a customized setting.
Smooth Motion
The Smooth MotionTM Effect option activates Motion Estimation/Motion Compensation (ME/MC),
which suppresses motion judder, or “stuttering” of the image when the camera pans across a

Chapter 6 Understanding Viewing Features
Your HDTV features the following viewing modes. You can switch viewing modes using the remote
control, please follow the instructions on page 39.
Viewing Modes
Normal Mode
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).
Full
Full mode allows you to view the entire picture. Recommended for HDMI and RGB / Computer viewing so
you can see the complete picture without the image overstretching beyond the viewing area. If you
experience “noise” along the border switch to Zoom 1. For 720p, 1080i, 1080p only.
Zoom 1
When watching a standard broadcast or full-frame movie in this mode,
the display image is stretched proportionately to fill the TV screen.
When watching a widescreen (1.78:1 source) program or movie, the
display image fills the TV screen. 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.
Zoom 2
Zooms in by 14% to crop the top and bottom bars for 2.35:1 film resolutions. For 480i/p, 4:3 only.
Stretch Mode
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.
Panoramic Mode
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.

Maintenance
Important
1.
2.
Make sure that the power cable is removed from the socket before cleaning the TV.
Do not use volatile solvent (such as toluene, rosin and alcohol) to clean the TV. Such
chemicals may damage the housing, screen and remote control, and cause paint to peel.
Cleaning the Housing and Remote Control
1.
2.
Use a soft cloth for cleaning.
If the housing or remote control is seriously contaminated, use a soft cloth moistened with
diluted neutral cleaner to clean the display. Wring water out of the cloth before cleaning to
prevent water from penetrating into the housing. Wipe the display with a dry cloth after
cleaning.
Cleaning the Screen
1.
2.
Use a soft cloth to gently clean the screen.
The screen is very fragile. Do not scrape it with any sharp object. Do not press or tap the
screen to avoid cracking. When the screen is seriously contaminated, use a soft cloth
moistened with diluted neutral cleaner to clean the display. Wring water out of the cloth
before cleaning to prevent water from penetrating into the housing. Wipe the display with a
dry cloth after cleaning.

•
Your HDTV is an ideal platform for viewing High Definition Content.
Best image quality will be achieved by HDMI. The next best is Component,

Limited Product Warranty
VIZIO provides a “ONE-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY” against manufacturing defects in materials and
workmanship to the original purchaser of a new VIZIO display purchased from an authorized VIZIO U.S.
reseller and used in the fifty (50) United States or Puerto Rico.
VIZIO's Responsibility
VIZIO displays purchased new from an authorized VIZIO U.S. reseller and that are used in the fifty (50)
United States or Puerto Rico are warranted to be free from manufacturing defects in materials and
workmanship for one (1) year from the date of the original retail purchase. If the display fails to conform to
this limited warranty, VIZIO will, at its option and sole discretion, repair or replace the display.
Labor
During the one-year limited warranty period, VIZIO will provide, when needed, service labor to repair a
manufacturing defect. Repairs required on displays which are thirty (30) inches and larger generally will
be made “on-site” where the display is installed. The determination for performing the on-site repair is
dependent upon the manufacturing defect and is at VIZIO's option and sole discretion. Repairs required
on displays which are less than thirty (30) inches generally will be performed at a VIZIO service center.
Parts
Repairs may be made with new or recertified parts, or the entire unit may be replaced with a new or
recertified unit, at VIZIO's option and sole discretion. Replacement parts or replacement units provided
under this limited warranty are warranted for the remaining portion of the original warranty period, or for
ninety (90) days from warranty service or replacement, whichever is later.

VIZIO reserves the right to assess all warranty claims and to determine if defects or damages are covered
by this limited warranty. In case of a claim that is not covered by this warranty, you will be contacted to
determine whether VIZIO should repair the damage for a fee or whether the product should be returned to
you as received by the service technician or service center.
Parts and service labor that are VIZIO's responsibility under this limited warranty will be provided without
charge. All other service is at the customer's expense. VIZIO reserves the right to charge the customer for

On-Site Warranty Repair Procedure
On-Site Warranty Repair generally is performed on repairable displays which are 30 inches and
larger.
If VIZIO Technical Support determines that a problem with a display unit may be within the terms and
conditions of the VIZIO Limited Product Warranty and that an on-site repair may be performed, the
customer will be provided with an on-site repair authorization number and on-site repair instructions. The
determination for performing the on-site repair may be dependent upon the manufacturing defect and is at
VIZIO's option and sole discretion. Proof of purchase is required to confirm the product is within the one-
year limited warranty period and meets the terms and conditions of the VIZIO Limited Product Warranty.
On-site repair service is requested through VIZIO's third-party service provider. After VIZIO provides the
customer with the on-site repair (OSR) authorization number, the third-party service provider will contact
the customer and will schedule the repair at the customer's location. The total approximate time for the
repair process, which includes the repair diagnosis, dispatching the technician, shipping the replacement
part(s), and arranging the appointment with the customer, is completed within approximately 3 to 5
business days, pending availability of these factors.
If it is determined the product can not be repaired on-site, the customer will be required to ship the unit to
VIZIO's service center, per the below warranty replacement procedure.
VIZIO is not responsible for the de-installation or re-installation of the product. However, some standard
installation may be performed during the on-site repair, at VIZIO's option and sole discretion. Please read
VIZIO's Limited Product Warranty for warranty terms and conditions.
Warranty Replacement Procedure
Warranty Replacement generally is performed on displays which are determined to be
economically unrepairable.
If VIZIO Technical Support determines that a problem with a display unit may be within the terms and
conditions of the VIZIO Limited Product Warranty and that a repair is not economically possible, based on
certain manufacturing defects in materials and/or workmanship, and/or at VIZIO's option and sole
discretion, the customer will be provided with a return authorization number and replacement instructions.
Proof of purchase is required to confirm the product is within the one-year limited warranty period and
meets the terms and conditions of the VIZIO Limited Product Warranty.
For displays forty-two inches (42") and larger, VIZIO will generally cover the transportation charges to
perform an on-site swap of the original unit with the replacement unit. For displays under forty-two inches
(42"), the customer is responsible for the transportation charges to VIZIO's service center. VIZIO will be
responsible for the return transportation charges from the service center to the customer. Please read
VIZIO's Limited Product Warranty for warranty terms and conditions.
Mail-In Warranty Repair Procedure
Mail-In Warranty Repair generally is performed on displays which are smaller than 30 inches.
If VIZIO Technical Support determines that a problem with a display unit may be within the terms and
conditions of the VIZIO Limited Product Warranty and that a mail-in repair may be performed, the
customer will be provided with a return authorization number and mail-in repair instructions. Proof of
purchase is required to confirm the product is within the one-year limited warranty period and meets the
terms and conditions of the VIZIO Limited Product Warranty.
The customer will be provided with instructions for packing and shipping the unit to the VIZIO service
center. The original carton box and packing material, or an equivalent as designated by VIZIO, must be
utilized. The cost of shipping to VIZIO's service center is at the customer's expense. After the product is
repaired and tested, the VIZIO service center will ship the unit back to the customer at VIZIO's expense.
VIZIO is not responsible for the de-installation or re-installation of the product. Please read VIZIO's
Limited Product Warranty for warranty terms and conditions.
PLEASE DO NOT RETURN YOUR UNIT TO VIZIO WITHOUT PRIOR
AUTHORIZATION.
