Lightning Protection
TELEVISION ANTENNA CONNECTION
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.
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.
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.
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.

Adjusting the Color Calibration Settings
•
Reset Color Tuner - Resets the color tuner settings for the
current color temperature mode.
Color Calibration Settings allow you to make precise adjustments to
the picture and to create picture modes to save groups of picture
settings.
•
•
If the current picture mode is a pre-set, the color
temperature is reset for all pre-set picture modes using
the current color temperature mode. It does not affect
saved custom picture modes.
If the current picture mode is a saved custom picture
mode, the color temperature only reset for that custom
picture modes. It does not affect pre-set picture modes
or other custom picture modes.
The Color Tuner, 11 Point White Balance, and test
patterns allow technicians to manually calibrate the TV.
Calibration requires specialized training, an input with
precisely set colors, and a specialized light meter.
To adjust the color calibration picture settings:
For example, suppose that:
•
You have created two custom picture modes: “My Picture
Settings” and “Oliver.” They both use the Normal color
temperature, but you have adjusted it for each of the
modes.
1. From the PICTURE menu, use
VIZIO
the Arrow buttons to highlight

the OK button. The COLOR

•
You have changed the Color Tuner settings for the
Normal color temperature while in the Calibrated picture
mode.
2. Use the Arrow buttons to
highlight the setting you wish to
adjust, then press the OK button
to change the setting:
Reset Color Tuner
So, you have “My Picture Settings” with a modified Normal
color temperature, “Oliver” with different changes to the
Normal color temperature, and a third set of changes to the
Normal color temperature that applies to all of the pre-set
picture modes.
The Calibrated and Calibrated Dark picture modes both use
the Normal color temperature. If Calibrated is the current
picture mode when the Normal color temperature is reset,
the change affects both of these picture modes, but does
not undo the changes to the color temperature for the “My
Picture Settings” or “Oliver” custom picture modes.
If “My Picture Settings" is the current picture mode when
the Normal color temperature is reset, the change only
affects the “My Picture Settings” picture mode. The color
temperature changes to the “Oliver,” Calibrated, and
Calibrated Dark picture modes stay as they are.

Adjusting the Wide Mode (Aspect Ratio)
•
•
Wide stretches a 4:3 aspect ratio picture to the edges of
the screen. Since the picture is being stretched, the display
image may appear distorted. If the program is already
formatted for widescreen viewing (1.85:1 or 2.35:1), then
black bars will appear on the top and bottom of the display
image.
The TV can display images in five different modes: Normal, Stretch,
Panoramic, Wide, and Zoom. Each mode displays the picture
differently.
To change the screen aspect ratio:
Zoom expands images with black bars to fit the screen.
1. Press the MENU button on the
remote. The on-screen menu is

appears at the top of the screen.
Note: Aspect ratio settings may
vary by Input source.
4. Use the Arrow buttons to highlight the aspect ratio you wish to
use and the press OK.
•
Normal preserves the content’s original aspect ratio. Since
the 4:3 aspect ratio is not large enough to fill the TV’s
screen, black bars are added to the left and right of the
display image.
•
Stretch expands the display image to fill the screen. Images
may appear wider than intended. If you are watching
widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1) content, black bars will still
appear on the top and bottom of the display image. This
option is only available when the TV is displaying a
720p/1080i source.
•
Panoramic expands the display image to fill the width of
the screen. Images may appear wider than intended. If
you are watching widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1) content,
black bars will still appear on the top and bottom of the
display image. This option is only available when the TV is
