WaTChInG BlU-RaY 3D ConTEnT  
Because our eyes have space between them, when we look  
around, we see two slightly different pictures. We never notice,  
because we are able to combine these pictures into one three-  
dimensional image.  
To view Blu-ray 3D content:  
1. Ensure you have the following equipment:  
VIZIO Theater 3D HDTV  
3D Blu-rayplayer with a Blu-ray 3Ddisc (sold  
separately)  
The VIZIO Theater 3D HDTV takes advantage of this phenomenon  
to create a stunning 3D image. When displaying 3D content, the  
3D HDTV actually displays two separate images at the same  
time—one for each eye.  
VIZIO Theater 3D Glasses  
3D-Ready HDMI cable (sold separately)  
Because Theater 3D glasses only allow each eye to see its  
intended image, your brain is able to process the picture in  
the same way as any other object you see. The final result is a  
stunning, life-like 3D picture.  
2. Ensure the 3D Blu-ray player and your TV are connected with  
the 3D-Ready HDMI cable.  
3. Turn the 3D Blu-ray player off. Press the Power/Standby  
button on the remote to turn the TV on.  
WhaT YoU nEED To VIEW 3D ConTEnT  
4. Press the INPUT button on the remote and select the input to  
which the Blu-ray player is connected (HDMI-1, HDMI-2, etc).  
To view 3D content, you will need:  
VIZIO Theater 3D HDTV  
3D Blu-rayplayer with a Blu-ray 3Ddisc (sold  
separately)  
5. Turn the 3D Blu-ray player on. Insert the Blu-ray 3D disc into  
the player.

The image quality is not good.  
I see “noise” or static on the screen.  
For the best image quality, view high-definition  
programs using digital sources. Connect your devices  
with HDMI cables.  
When your TVs digital capabilities exceed a  
digital broadcast signal, the signal is up-converted  
(improved) to match your TVs display capabilities.This  
up-converting can sometimes cause irregularities in the  
image.  
If you are using an antenna, the signal strength of the  
channel may be low. Ensure your antenna is connected  
securely to the TV and move the antenna around the  
room or close to a window for the best signal.  
If you are using an antenna, the signal strength of the  
channel may be low. Ensure your antenna is connected  
securely to the TV and move the antenna around the  
room or close to a window for the best signal.  
The picture is distorted.  
Nearby electrical devices may be interfering with the  
TV. Separate the TV from electrical appliances, cars, or  
flourescent lights.  
When I change input source, the volume changes.  
The TV remembers the volume level on each input  
source. If the volume level on the new input source is  
higher or lower than the level on the source you switch  
from, the difference may be noticable.  
Ensure all cables are securely attached.  
The display image does not cover the entire screen.  
Use the Volume Up/Down buttons on the remote to  
adjust the volume.  
If you are in RGB mode (computer), ensure that H-Size  
and V-Position in the on-screen menu are set correctly.  
If you are using TV, AV1, AV2, or Component with 480i  
input, press the WIDE button on the remote to change  
the screen mode.  
When I change input source, the display image changes size.  
The TV remembers the viewing mode on each input  
source. If the viewing mode on the new input source  
differs from the one on the input source you switch from,  
the difference may be noticable.  
The TV has pixels (dots) that are always dark or always lit.  
Your HDTV is precision-manufactured using an extremely  
high level of technology. However, sometimes pixels may  
not display correctly.These types of occurences are  
inherent to this type of product and do not constitute a  
defective product.
