VIZIO smart TVs update their software automatically when connected to the internet, usually while the TV is in standby. You can also check for an update manually from the System menu.

​
Check for an update manually

1

Connect to the internet

Make sure your TV is online. See Connect to Wi-Fi.
2

Open System settings

Press Menu, then select System.
3

Check for updates

Select Check for Updates. If one is available, confirm to install it.
4

Wait for it to finish

The TV may restart. Don’t unplug it or turn it off during the update.
Unplugging the TV during an update can cause problems. Wait until the TV finishes and returns to the home screen.

​
If an update is stuck or fails

  • Wait 15 to 20 minutes. Large updates can take time.
  • Power-cycle the TV. Unplug it for 60 seconds, plug it back in, then check for updates again.
  • Check your connection. A weak signal can interrupt downloads; try Ethernet.
  • Contact official support at support.vizio.com if the TV won’t start after an update.
