How to reset your Vizio TV
Resetting a Vizio TV can help resolve issues such as poor picture quality, unresponsive remote control, applications not working, among other technical problems. Here are step-by-step instructions on how to reset your device:
Step 1: Turn on your TV
Make sure your Vizio TV is plugged in and press the Power button to turn it on.
Step 2: Access the Settings menu
Use your Vizio remote and click on the ‘Menu’ button. This will take you to the main menu of the TV.
Step 3: Go to System Settings
Using the arrow buttons on your remote, navigate to the ‘System’ section on the menu. Press the ‘OK’ button on the remote to access this option.
Step 4: Select ‘Reset and Admin’
In the System section, locate the ‘Reset and Admin’ option. Once found, click the ‘OK’ button on your remote to select it.
Step 5: Initiate Factory reset
Within the ‘Reset and Admin’ menu, find ‘Reset TV to factory settings’ or similar words (depending on your TV model). Select this option by pressing the ‘OK’ button on your remote.
Step 6: Confirm reset
Your TV will now ask for your confirmation – it wants to be sure you want to proceed, as all personal settings and data will be lost in the process. Confirm the process by selecting ‘OK’ or ‘Yes’ in the confirmation window.
Step 7: Wait for the reset to complete
After you confirm, the TV will take some time to reset all settings, usually only a few minutes. During this process, your TV may turn off and on by itself – don’t worry, this is expected.
Step 8: Initial Setup Process
Once the factory reset is complete, your TV should restart and display the welcome or initial setup screen. Here, you’ll complete settings like language selection, network setup, and account log-in, essentially setting up your TV like it’s brand new.
Remember, resetting your Vizio TV will get rid of all personal settings, including your accounts, apps, and preferences. Before doing a factory reset, make sure that there is no other way to fix the problem you are facin
