Installation Preparation
Please read this user manual carefully before installing your VIZIO FHDTV.
The power consumption of the TV is up to 600W, 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 FHDTV 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 resulting in excessive heat and component damage.
The VIZIO VP505XVT1A can either be kept on the stand base or mounted on the wall for viewing. If you
choose to mount the VP505XVT1A on the wall, please refer to "preparing your PLASMA FHDTV 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 www.VIZIO.com.

Attaching the Safety Strap

When the VP505XVT1A is not mounted with a Wall Mount, a Safety Strap has been included to attach
the TV to the wall to reduce the chance of the TV 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 TV 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 head.
2. Fix the other end of the Safety
Strap to one of the upper wall
mount holes on the back of the
TV, using a washer under the
screw head.
