If you bought a 110 unit, that's all the voltage that the TV or that 110 power cord will accept. You plug that TV into a 220 volt outlet with a 110 volt power cord and it will explode. Seriously. You need to call Vizio and find out where you can buy a 220 volt Vizio TV.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You will need some sort of adapter to bring it down to 110/120 volts. TV will not operate on 220 volts straight.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Voltage is not your problem. Voltage issues can be resolved with a simple transformer (which should be commonly available since this is a very common issue). The power line frequency might be an issue. Read on. The big problem will be the broadcast color-encoding standard. The two standards, PAL and NTSC have been joined by a third, SECAM (gotta love the French and the Russians, eh!). And ALL are incompatible with each other. Your problem is that parts of South America use PAL (which usually means 50 Hz power) and other parts use NTSC (which usually means 60 Hz power). Here is a link with all the details and a map of where which is used: http://www.diffen.com/difference/NTSC_vs_PAL Enjoy!
