										Page	13				Guided Setup With	the	preliminaries	out	of	the	way,	it’s	time	to	turn	on	your	TV.	As	the	TV	starts	for	the	first	time,	it	leads	you	through	Guided	Setup,	which	configures	the	TV	before	you	start	to	use	it.	During	Guided	Setup,	you’ll:	• Answer	a	few	questions	• Provide	network	connection	information	• Get	a	software	update	• Link	your	TV	to	your	Roku	account.	• Connect	devices	such	as	a	DVD	player,	game	console,	or	cable	box.	Note:	Guided	Setup	runs	only	once,	the	first	time	you	turn	on	your	TV.	If	you	need	to	run	Guided	Setup	again,	you’ll	have	to	perform	a	factory	reset,	as	explained	in	“Factory	reset	everything”	on	page	68.	Starting Guided Setup To	start	Guided	Setup,	press	the	POWER	button	on	the	remote	control	to	turn	on	your	TV.		When	you	first	turn	on	your	TV,	it	will	take	a	few	seconds	to	get	itself	ready.	You’ll	notice	the	following	things	happening:	1. The	status	light	blinks	every	time	the	TV	is	busy	doing	something;	in	this	case,	it’s	powering	up	and	getting	ready	for	you.	2. The	power-on	screen	appears	and	the	status	light	blinks	slowly	for	a	few	more	seconds.	The	power-on	screen	displays	the	TCL	•	Roku	TV	logo	while	the	TV	starts	up.	 
						

										Page	14				3. After	a	few	seconds,	Guided	Setup	starts:			Tip:	On	TVs	sold	in	the	United	States,	if	you	are	blind	or	visually	impaired,	you	can	activate	the	Audio	Guide,	a	text-to-speech	screen	reader	to	help	you	navigate	the	TV’s	menus	and	commands.		To	enable	the	Audio	Guide,	press	the	Þ	button	on	the	remote	control	four	times	in	rapid	succession.	Repeat	to	disable	the	Audio	Guide.	(The	Þ	button	is	located	directly	below	the	directional	pad	on	the	right	side	of	the	Roku	remote	control.)	For	more	information	on	using	the	Audio	Guide	and	adjusting	its	settings,	see	Configure	accessibility	on	page	53.	4. Press	the	DOWN	button	on	the	remote	control	to	highlight	your	preferred	language.	 
						

										Page	15				Setting up your TV With	the	first	Guided	Setup	screen	on	your	TV,	follow	these	steps	to	set	it	up:	1. Press	OK	or	the	RIGHT	arrow	on	the	remote	control	to	go	to	the	next	screen:		2. Press	OK	to	select	Set	up	for	home	use.	Home	mode	is	the	right	choice	for	enjoying	your	TV	at	home.	It	provides	energy	saving	options	as	well	as	access	to	all	features	of	the	TV.	Note:	Store	mode	configures	the	TV	for	retail	display	and	is	not	recommended	for	any	other	use.	In	store	mode,	some	features	of	the	TV	are	missing	or	limited.	To	switch	from	one	mode	to	the	other,	you	have	to	perform	a	factory	reset	as	explained	in	“Factory	reset	everything”	on	page	68,	and	then	repeat	Guided	Setup.	3. If	you	select	a	wireless	network	that	is	password-protected,	an	on-screen	keyboard	appears.	Use	the	keyboard	to	enter	the	network	password.		Tip:	Wireless	networks	that	are	password-protected	display	a	“padlock”	icon	adjacent	to	the	name.	This	icon	enables	you	to	know	that	you	are	going	to	be	prompted	to	enter	a	password	after	you	select	that	network.		 
						

										Page	16					4. After	you	submit	your	wireless	network	password,	the	TV	displays	progress	messages	as	it	connects	to	your	wireless	network,	your	local	network,	and	the	Internet.	5. Your	TV	needs	to	know	the	local	time	zone	so	that	it	can	correctly	display	time	information	about	the	program	you	are	currently	watching.	If	the	TV	is	unable	to	automatically	determine	the	local	time	zone,	it	prompts	you	to	choose	your	time	zone	from	a	list.	Use	the	UP	and	DOWN	arrows	to	highlight	your	time	zone,	and	then	press	OK.		6. As	soon	as	the	TV	is	able	to	connect	to	the	Internet,	it	downloads	and	installs	its	first	software	update,	and	then	restarts.	Tip:	Your	TV	automatically	checks	for	updates	periodically.	These	updates	provide	new	features	and	improve	your	overall	experience	with	the	TV.	After	an	update,	you	might	notice	that	some	options	have	moved,	and	that	there	are	new	options	or	features.	This	User	Guide	describes	version	7.5.	To	determine	your	current	Roku	TV	software	version,	go	to	Settings	>	System	>	About	after	you	complete	Guided	Setup.	You	can	download	an	updated	User	Guide	that	matches	your	Roku	TV	software	version	from	the	TCL	•	Roku	TV	web	site	at:		 
						

										Page	17				http://tclusa.helpjuice.com/26914-home-theater-current-models	After	the	TV	restarts,	it	displays	the	Activation	screen:		Note:	A	paid	subscription	or	other	payments	may	be	required	for	some	channels.	Channel	availability	is	subject	to	change	and	varies	by	country.	Not	all	content	is	available	in	countries	or	regions	where	Roku®	products	are	sold.	7. Using	a	compatible	computer,	tablet,	or	smartphone	with	an	Internet	connection,	go	to	the	web	address	displayed	on	the	screen	and	enter	the	code	that	appears	on	your	screen.		After	you	log	in	or	create	your	Roku	account,	the	link	page	suggests	that	you	select	some	streaming	channels.	After	you	confirm	your	selections,	the	TV	gets	an	acknowledgement,	and	then	adds	your	preexisting	and	newly-selected	streaming	channels	to	your	Roku	TV.	This	process	is	automatic	and	takes	a	few	moments—a	little	longer	if	you	already	have	a	lot	of	streaming	channels	to	add.		Tip:	Streaming	channels	from	all	Roku	streaming	devices	associated	with	your	account	are	synchronized	periodically,	so	all	of	your	Roku	streaming	devices	have	the	same	streaming	channels	(subject	to	compatibility	with	the	device).	Why do I need a Roku Account?  You	need	a	Roku	account	for	several	reasons.	•It	links	you,	your	Roku	TV	and	your	other	Roku	streaming	devices	to	the	Roku	Channel	Store	and	billing	service.	•Streaming	content	providers	know	that	it’s	OK	to	send	content	you	request	to	your	Roku	TV.	•Roku	can	automatically	send	updates	to	your	device.	Important:	When	you	set	up	a	Roku	account,	you	must	register	a	payment	method.	Adding	a	payment	method	now	l ets	you	easily	rent	or	buy	movies	on	demand,	or	try	popular	paid	subscription	or	transaction-based	streaming	channels.	You	won’t	be	charged	unless	you	agree	to	the	terms	and	cost	of	the	content.	If	you	are	concerned	about	unauthorized	charges,	you	can	set	up	a	PIN	that	you	must	enter	to	authorize	each	charge.		  
						

										Page	18				After	it	adds	your	selected	streaming	channels,	the	TV	helps	you	set	up	the	devices	that	you’re	connecting	to	it,	such	as	a	cable	box,	Blu-ray	player,	or	game	console:		8. Press	the	OK	or	RIGHT	arrow	to	proceed:		9. Connect	all	the	devices	you	plan	to	use	with	your	TV,	turn	them	all	on,	and	then	select	Everything	is	plugged	in	and	turned	on.	The	TV	now	takes	you	step	by	step	through	each	of	its	 
						

										Page	19				inputs	and	asks	what	kind	of	device	you	have	connected.	On	each	input	that	has	a	connected	and	active	device,	you	can	see	its	picture	and	hear	its	sound.		10. Press	the	UP	or	DOWN	arrows	to	highlight	the	label	you	want	to	associate	with	the	input,	and	then	press	OK	to	move	on	to	the	next	input.	You’re	done	with	Guided	Setup.			Note:	Some	Roku	TVs,	depending	on	where	you	live	and	other	factors,	show	you	an	introductory	video	filled	with	some	great	hints	and	tips.	If	you’re	not	interested	in	viewing	this	video,	press		on	the	remote	control	to	exit	to	the	Roku	TV	Home	screen.	When	you	finish	Guided	Setup,	and	whenever	you	press		on	the	remote	control,	the	Home	screen	greets	you.	From	here,	you	can	explore	everything	your	TV	has	to	offer.	Press	the	arrow	buttons	to	move	around,	and	press	OK	to	select	a	highlighted	item.	We’ve	designed	the	TV	to	encourage	you	to	explore,	and	you	can	probably	figure	out	most	of	the	capabilities	and	settings	on	your	own.	If	you	have	any	questions	or	difficulties,	you	can	find	answers	and	solutions	in	this	guide.
