Chapter 3 - Getting Started  

3.1 - Turning your LCD TV On and Off  

1.  Plug the DC adapter into the DC IN jack on the back side of the LCD TV Monitor, then 

plug the power cable into a properly grounded outlet.  

 
2.  Press the POWER button on the front panel or the POWER button on the remote control 

to turn on the LCD TV. The POWER indicator on the front panel will light green. 

 

3.  Select the input source for the LCD TV using the Video Source button on the remote 

control and select the audio source for the LCD TV using the Audio Source button on the 
remote control 

 

4.  If connecting to antenna, cable or other RF source on TV inputs, see 3.4.2.1 – TV Install 

page 20 to configure the product to receive all available channels.   

3.2 - Installation of Wall Mount (Optional) 

If you would like to mount your L15 LCD TV to the wall, you can contact VIZIO directly at 

www.vizioce.com

 or your local dealer to obtain the appropriate wall mounting kit.  To convert your 

LCD TV from a desk-mounted to a wall-mounted display, follow the instructions below. 
   

1.  Turn off the LCD TV and disconnect the DC adapter 

from the back of the LCD TV. 

 
2.  Lay the LCD TV face down on a towel or blanket to 

protect the screen from damage. 

 

3.  Unscrew the 4 set screws (see Figure 3.2.a) that hold 

the stand to the bottom of the LCD TV.  Please make 
sure to keep a hold of the stand so that it does not 
fall once the screws are loosened.  

 

4.  Remove the stand carefully from the back of the TV.  Please make sure to keep the 4 

screws and washers that were removed with the stand in safe place for future use. 

 

5.  Place the VESA plate adapter included in the accessory box 

to the back of the LCD TV centered over the 4 screw holes 
in Figure 3.2.b.  This will allow the mount to fit flush on the 
back of the LCD TV. 

 

6.  Attach the mount to the TV through the VESA plate adapter 

by utilizing the 4 screw holes also included in the accessory 
box to the center of the back of the LCD TV (see Figure 
3.2.b).  Please make sure to follow the kit instructions that 
shipped with your mount for proper installation.
