Installation Preparation
Please read this user manual carefully before installing your VIZIO HDTV.
The power consumption of the TV is up to 700W, please use the power cord designated for TV. 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 defeated.
The TV should be installed on a flat surface to avoid tipping. For proper ventilation, you must allow space
between the back of the TV and the wall. If you would like to mount your TV on the wall, please see
below ‘Preparing Your PLASMA HDTV for Wall Mounting’ for additional information. Avoid installing the
TV in places with high humidity, dust or smoke so as not to shorten the service life of the electronic
components.
Install the TV in landscape orientation; any 90˚ clockwise or counter-clockwise installation may induce
poor ventilation and excessive component damage.
The VIZIO VP504 FHDTV10A can either be kept on the stand base or mounted on the wall for viewing. If
you choose to mount the VP504 FHDTV10A on the wall, please refer to “preparing your PLASMA HDTV
for wall mounting” on page 6.
VIZIO offers professional installation services. Please contact VIZIO for more information on these
services at 888-VIZIOCE (888-849-4623) or
Attaching the Safety Strap
For when the VP504 FHDTV10A is not mounted on the wall with a Wall Mount, a Safety Strap has been
included 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.
Fix one end of the strap to the wall. If you have a drywall
finish it is preferable to fix 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.
Fix 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.
