Possible Places to Look For Vizio TV Model Number
The model number of a Vizio Smart TV can be found in multiple places on the TV or in the things that come with it. To locate it on your Vizio TV, follow the below guides.
On-Screen Settings of Vizio Smart TV
The one place where you can always find the model number of your Vizio TV is the TV’s Settings menu. The navigation paths to find it will be different based on the OS of your TV. All Vizio Smart TVs released in or after 2016 use the SmartCast OS, whereas the older models use VIA or VIA+ OS.
So, here are the steps to find the model number on these TVs via Settings.
- Vizio SmartCast TV: Once you start up the Vizio TV with the Power button on the TV or remote, tap the Menu button on your remote. Then, select Admin & Privacy → System Information and locate the Model Number/Name under the Serial Number.

On the TV’s Back
Another place you can check to find the model number of your Vizio TV is the back of the TV or display. You will see a white or black sticker with some information about the TV on it. Among them, you can also find the Model Number. Locating the number this way is probably harder for people who have their TVs wall-mounted. In that case, you can either use the above or the following methods.

Packaging Box of Vizio TV
If you still have the packaging box with which your TV arrived in, then you can check that to get the Model Number. You can locate it on a product sticker that is usually on the side of the box. Sometimes, the location of the sticker can be different. If you just bought a new Vizio TV, then you are in luck because you can easily find the Model Number as soon as it is delivered.
On the Vizio Mobile App
If you want yet another way of locating your Vizio TV’s Model Number, you can use the Vizio Mobile App. This is a slightly convoluted method, but you can try it if you are not able to find the model number using any of the above methods.
1. First, install the Vizio Mobile app on your smartphone & sign in to your account. You can also create an account there or Continue as a guest.
2. Now, connect your mobile to the WiFi network, to which your Vizio TV will automatically connect.
3. The app will automatically find your TV on the home screen. Once it appears, tap the (+) icon next to its name.
4. Enter the 4-digit PIN displayed on your TV screen to pair it with the app. Then, the virtual remote interface will appear.
5. Now, tap the Account icon at the bottom and navigate to System → System Information to find the Model Number.

Tip! You can also use the virtual remote controls on the app to navigate the on-screen Settings and locate the Vizio TV Model Number.
The Model Number of your Vizio TV will come in handy when you want to access product information online or via Vizio TV’s Customer Service. It can also be required when you are trying to claim your Vizio TV’s warranty. So, once you locate the number, find a way to make it easily accessible whenever you need it.
