Detailed Step-by-Step Guide To Enter VIZIO TV Activation Code

  • Unbox and connect your VIZIO Smart TV to a power source.
  • Turn it on using the VIZIO remote or the power button on the TV.
  • Select your language, time zone, and region on the initial setup screen.
  • Press the Menu button on your remote and navigate to Network or Settings.

  • Choose your Wi-Fi network, enter the password, and connect. For optimal performance, use a 5GHz Wi-Fi band or a wired Ethernet connection.
  • Test the connection to ensure it’s stable, as a reliable internet connection is critical for activation.
  • After connecting to the internet, your TV will display a unique 6-digit activation code (e.g., ABC123) on the screen.
  • Write down the code or keep the TV screen visible, as it’s time-sensitive and may expire after a few minutes.
  • If no code appears, restart your TV by unplugging it for 30 seconds and powering it back on to generate a new code.
  • On a separate device (smartphone, tablet, laptop, or desktop), open a web browser and go to vizio.com/setup.
  • Ensure your device is connected to the internet, preferably the same network as your TV for a smoother process.
  • Type the code exactly as shown on your TV, paying attention to uppercase and lowercase letters or numbers.

  • Click Submit or Continue to verify the code.
  • You’ll be prompted to sign in to your VIZIO account. If you don’t have one, select the option to create a free account directly on vizio.com/setup.
  • Provide your email address, create a password, and follow the prompts to set up your account. A VIZIO account enhances your experience but isn’t mandatory for basic activation.
  • Once the code is verified, your TV will sync with VIZIO’s servers, activating SmartCast and enabling access to apps.
  • Follow any additional on-screen instructions, such as agreeing to terms of service or selecting app preferences.
  • Your TV will refresh, and you’ll be ready to explore streaming services and smart features.
