VIZIO VMM26 F20I User Guide
• The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user
to the presence of important operating and servicing instructions in the
literature accompanying your monitor.
• Do not overload power strips and extension cords. Overloading can result in fire
or electric shock.
• The power outlet should be installed near your monitor and easily accessible.
• Only power of the marked voltage can be used for your monitor. Any other voltage than
the specified voltage may cause fire or electric shock.
• Do not touch the power cord during a lightning storm. To avoid electric shock, avoid
handling the power cord during electrical storms.
• Unplug your monitor during a lightning storm or when it will not be used for long period of
time. This will protect your monitor from damage due to power surges.
• Do not attempt to repair or service your monitor yourself. Opening or removing the back
cover may expose you to high voltages, electric shock, and other hazards. If repair is
required, contact your dealer and refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
• Keep your monitor away from moisture. Do not expose your monitor to rain or moisture. If
water penetrates into your monitor, unplug the power cord and contact your dealer.
Continuous use in this case may result in fire or electric shock.
• Do not use your monitor if any abnormality occurs. If any smoke or odor becomes
apparent, unplug the power cord and contact your dealer immediately. Do not try to repair
your monitor yourself.
• Avoid using dropped or damaged appliances. If your monitor is dropped and the housing
is damaged, the internal components may function abnormally. Unplug the power cord
immediately and contact your dealer for repair. Continued use of your monitor may cause
fire or electric shock.
• Do not install your monitor in an area with heavy dust or high humidity. Operating your
monitor in environments with heavy dust or high humidity may cause fire or electric shock.
• Follow instructions for moving your monitor. Ensure that the power cord and any other
cables are unplugged before moving your monitor.
• When unplugging your monitor, hold the power plug, not the cord. Pulling on the power
cord may damage the wires inside the cord and cause fire or electric shock. When your
monitor will not be used for an extended period of time, unplug the power cord.
• To reduce risk of electric shock, do not touch the connector with wet hands.
• If any of the following occurs, contact the dealer:
• The power cord fails or frays.
• Liquid sprays or any object drops into your monitor.
• Your monitor is exposed to rain or other moisture.
• Your monitor is dropped or damaged in any way.
• The performance of your monitor changes substantially.

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.

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
