What’s in the box

What you need

For additional support, please visit support.tcl.com/us

Step 1 Set up your TV

Ready for the step-by-step? You’re only minutes away from TV bliss!
Remove your TV from the box
Be careful, it’s heavy!
To mount your TV on a wall, skip to page 6.

To use the stand
A Carefully remove the foam packaging on the left and right sides of the TV. Keep the bottom foam packaging attached as shown in Image #1. On the back of the TV, remove the ten (10) stand screws from the mounting holes located on the lower corners of each side. Set the screws aside.

B Remove the two (2) plastic covers from the stand holes on each side of the TV (refer to the objects marked “B” in Image #2). Put them away for future needs.

C Insert the stands into the holes where the plastic covers were removed in the previous step. Carefully align the stands with the screw holes on each side of the TV.

D Screw in the ten (10) screws you removed in step #1 back into the mounting holes to secure the stands to each side of the TV. Before moving the TV to its preferred and final location, two (2) people should lift the TV enough to allow the third person to remove the bottom foam packaging.

Note: We recommend having three (3) people help to safely install the stands. While two (2) people securely hold the TV upright, another person should install the stands. Make sure the direction and position of each stand follow the illustrations as shown in the images below.

Optional – To mount on a wall (wall mount not included)

To mount on a wall
Preparation must be done before mounting your TV on a wall.

If you are mounting your TV to the wall, don’t attach the stands.

To mount your TV to the wall, purchase a VESA wall mount

Models of 98’’| Purchase a VESA 850×400 (4 M8x20mm screws)

The VESA number is the horizontal and vertical measurement of the mounting holes. For example, 200X200 refers to the fact that the mounting measurements are 200mm horizontally and 200mm vertically.
Follow the instructions that come with the wall mount.
Your wall mount must be able to bear a minimum of five times the TV’s net weight to avoid causing damage.

Warning:
Never place a television set in an unstable location. A television set may fall, causing serious personal injury or death. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:
– Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television set.
– Only using furniture that can safely support the television set.
– Ensuring the television set is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
– Not placing the television set on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a suitable support.
– Not placing the television set on cloth or other materials that may be located between the television set and supporting furniture.
– Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its controls.

If your existing television set is being retained and relocated, the same considerations as above should be applied.

To Install the tuner adapter

Before using your TV, make sure to install the tuner adapter on the port of CABLE/ANT.

Step 2 Power up

In this step, we’ll make sure all systems are a GO!

Connect your power cable to the TV, then plug it into the wall outlet.
Power your TV remote by inserting the included batteries.
Connect other devices by referencing port labels and descriptions on the next page.

Insert batteries in the correct polarity as indicated in the battery compartment.

Power Tip! Always replace depleted batteries with two same brand-new batteries from the same manufacturer. Never use damaged batteries.
If your remote gets warm/hot during use, discontinue use and contact customer support immediately at support.tcl.com/us.
