cable entry as practical.
Important: This television is a table model and is designed to sit on a firm, flat surface. Don’t place the TV on soft
carpeting or similar surface because the ventilation slots on the bottom of the unit will be blocked, resulting in reduced
lifetime from overheating. To assure adequate ventilation for this product, maintain a spacing of 4 inches from the top
and side of the TV receiver and 2 inches from the rear of the TV receiver and other surfaces.
Also, make sure the stand or base you use is of adequate size and strength to prevent the TV from being accidentally
tipped over, pushed off, or pulled off. This could cause personal injury and/or damage to the TV. Refer to the
Important Safety Instructions on the next page.
The Power button (followed by the power symbol) on this TV and your remote control puts the TV into a very
low-power standby mode but will not completely turn the power off. In order to completely shut the power off, you will
need to disconnect the power cord from the outlet. The mains plug/appliance coupler is used as disconnect device,
the disconnect device shall remain readily operable. Therefore, you should ensure that the TV is installed in a manner
that allows you to disconnect the power cord when desired.

Before Initial Setup
Protect Against Power Surges
• Connect all components before you plug any power cords into the wall outlet or power strip.
• NEVER plug your TV into an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch.
• Turn off the TV before you connect or disconnect any cables.
• Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safety 			
Instructions.
Safety Information
• Protect components from overheating.
• Don’t block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the components so that air can 		
circulate freely.
• Don’t stack components.
• If you place the component in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.
• If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from it won’t 		
harm other components.
Avoid Audio Interference
• Position cables properly; insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.
• If you place components above the TV, route all cables down one side of the back of the TV instead
of straight down the middle.
• If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables.
• Keep twin lead cables away from audio/video cables.
Avoid Direct Light
Don’t place the TV where sunlight or room lighting is directed toward the screen. Use soft or indirect
lighting.

Mounting Your TV to the Wall
If you are mounting your TV to the wall, don’t attach the table stand, remove the hinge cover and hinge.
To mount your TV to the wall, purchase a VESA wall mount.
32” Models
Purchase a VESA 200 x 100, M4 screw
40”, 39” Models
Purchase a VESA 400 x 200, M4 screw
The VESA number is the horizontal and vertical measurement of the mounting holes. For example,
200x100 refers to the fact that the mounting measurements are 200mm horizontally and 100mm vertically.
Notes: Follow the directions included with the wall mount to mount the TV to the wall.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What’s the quickest way to view High Definition (HD) video?
Connect an off-air antenna to the ANT/CABLE/SAT IN to view free local digital channels. You may need to
purchase an antenna.
Visit www.antennaweb.org for assistance in deciding what type of antenna to use to receive the local digital
channels available to you. By entering your location, this mapping program tells you which local analog and
digital stations are available using a certain antenna.
Are there other ways to view High Definition (HD) video?
Besides using an off-air antenna as mentioned above, you can also use a set-top box to receive
digital video. Contact your cable company or satellite provider to purchase digital programming
and have them connect the box to ensure you are viewing channels the best way.
How do I tell an analog channel from a digital channel?
Press the INFO button to display the Channel Banner. Look at the bottom right corner of the screen. The dot (•)
is displayed for a digital channel. If there is no dot, it is an analog channel.
Why are there bars on my screen and can I get rid of them?
Most digital video is sent in a 16/9 format which fills your screen, but is sometimes sent in 4/3 which does not
fill your screen. It depends on how the station or device connected to your TV is formatting the video. If there
are bars on the screen, press the ZOOM -/+ button to try a different format that may eliminate the bars. Some
bars can’t be removed because of the way the format is sent by the broadcaster. The format changes as you
press the ZOOM -/+ button and the format type is displayed at the bottom of the screen.
Why does channel search find a lot of channels, but when I try to tune to them, there’s nothing
there?
Some channels enabled by the cable company don’t carry programming, such as video ondemand. When
channels are unavailable, your TV screen is blank or appears like snow. You probably want to remove these
channels from your Channel List. Remove these in the Channel Skip Menu.
Why does the first channel search take a long time?
If you have both analog and digital channels, the TV is looking for all available channels in the Channel List. If
you do have digital channels, the TV is also searching for scrambled channels, non-scrambled channels, and
each sub-channel of that digital channel.

Troubleshooting
Most problems you encounter with your TV can be corrected by consulting the following troubleshooting list.
TV Problems
The TV won’t turn on.
•
•
•
•
Make sure the TV is plugged in.

The TV panel controls may be locked (disabled). Use the remote control to unlock the TV panel controls.
Select the Button Block feature on the Parental Control menu and press OK to uncheck the box.
There is no picture and no sound but the TV is on.
• You may be tuned to an input with no component connected to it. If you’re trying to view a connected
component, press INPUT until the picture from that component appears.
• The Signal Type option may be set incorrectly.
• The channel may be blank. Try changing channels.
• If you’re watching your VCR and it’s connected with coaxial cable to the ANT/CABLE/SAT IN jack, tune
the TV to channel 3 or 4 (whichever channel is selected on the 3/4 switch on the back of your VCR). Also
make sure the TV/VCR button on the VCR is in the correct mode (press the TV/VCR button on your VCR).
The sound is fine, but the picture is poor quality.
• If you’re getting a black and white picture from a component you’ve connected to your TV, you might have
your video cables connected to the wrong jacks. A yellow video cable connects to the yellow VIDEO
INPUT jack on the side or back of your TV; three video cables or bundled component video cables (red,
blue, and green) connect to the corresponding COMPONENT INPUT jacks on the back of your TV.
• Check the antenna connections. Make sure all of the cables are firmly connected to the jacks.
There is no sound, but the picture is fine.
• The sound might be muted. Try pressing the volume up button to restore sound.
• If using DVI or Y, PB, PR, remember to also connect the device’s left and right audio output jacks to the
TV’s L and R AUDIO INPUT jacks.
• The sound settings may not be set correctly.
• If your audio source has only one jack or is a (mono) audio source, make sure you have plugged the
connection into the L AUDIO INPUT jack on the TV.
The screen is blank.
• Check your connections. If you used yellow, red, and white cables to connect, make sure they’re
connected to the red, white, and yellow AUDIO/VIDEO INPUT jacks on the side or back of the TV.
• If you’re trying to watch something that’s playing on a component connected to the TV (like a DVD), press
INPUT until you get to the correct video input channel.
• Make sure the component connected to the TV is turned on.
• Try another channel.
The buttons on the TV panel don’t work.
• The TV panel controls may be locked (disabled). Use the remote control to unlock the TV panel controls
by selecting the Button Block feature in the Parental Control Menu and press ◄/► to uncheck the box.
• Unplug the TV for 10 minutes and then plug it back in. Turn the TV on and try again.
The TV turns off unexpectedly.
• The electronic protection circuit may have been activated because of a power surge. Wait 30 seconds,
and then turn the TV on again. If this happens frequently, the voltage in your house may be abnormally
high or low.
• Unplug. Wait 10 minutes. Plug in again.

Other Information
You can’t select a certain channel.
• The channel may be blocked or not approved in the Parental Control Menu.
• If using a VCR, check to make sure the TV/VCR button on the VCR is in the correct mode (press the TV/
VCR button on your VCR).
• Press the TV button and then try to change channels.
The stereo reception is noisy.
• It may be a weak station. Use the Sound Menu and Analog TV Sound to choose mono.

plugging it back in.
• If you are tuned to the HDMI 1, or other HDMI INPUT and you’re receiving Unusable Signal message
screen, press the INFO button on the remote. If Acquiring Channel appears in the Channel Banner, the
HDMI or DVI device isn’t responding. Contact the manufacturer of the HDMI or DVI device for further
assistance.
• If you tune to the HDMI 1, or other HDMI INPUT and you see snow, the video goes in and out, or the
video takes a long time to appear, your HDMI or DVI component is having trouble sending video
information to the TV. Reconnect your device. Reset the power by unplugging the power cord and plugging
it back in. If problems persist, try connecting the Y Pb Pr jacks if they are available or contact the
manufacturer of the HDMI or DVI component for further assistance.
• If you have black bars on each side of your picture, the component you connected might have a switch or
a menu option allowing you to change the picture quality output that will fix this. Choose either 720p or 1080i.
The remote control doesn’t work.
• Something might be between the remote and the remote light sensor on the front of the TV. Make sure
there is a clear path.
• The remote may not be aimed directly at the TV.
• The batteries in the remote may be weak, dead, or installed incorrectly. Put new batteries in the remote.
The Universal Remote control doesn’t work.
This TV utilizes new remote control signals and may not be compatible with your existing universal remote (e.g.
satellite box remotes, cable box remotes, and generic universal remotes, etc.). Over time, newer universal
remotes will become available that should pick up the new TV codes.
You are experiencing problems with V-Chip/Parental Controls.
If the rating limits don’t work, you must lock the settings. Go to the Main Menu (press MENU on your remote),
select Parental > Program Block > Rating Enable, Rating Enable is highlighted. Press ◄/► to select On
to have the rating limits take effect.
What else can I do?
If you’ve been through the Troubleshooting section and nothing has fixed your problem, try rebooting your
TV. Note that after a reboot, you may need to run your TV through the setup process again. To do a reboot,
unplug the power cord from the wall outlet or power strip. Keep your TV unplugged for about 5 minutes. Then
plug in the TV and turn it on. See if the problem is fixed. If the problem remains, then please visit www.tclusa.

You can clean the TV as required, using a soft lint-free cloth. Be sure to occasionally dust the ventilation slots
in the cabinet to help assure adequate ventilation.
IMPORTANT: Never use strong cleaning agents, such as ammonia-based cleaners, or abrasive powder.
These types of cleaners will damage the TV. The TV’s screen may be cleaned with a soft, lint-free cloth as
well. Take care not to scratch or mar the screen. If necessary, you may use a cloth dampened with warm
water. While cleaning, do not spray liquid directly on the screen, or allow liquid to run down the screen and
inside the TV. Also, never place drinks or vases with water on top of the TV. This could increase the risk of
fire, shock hazard or damage to the TV.
