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 subchannel of that digital channel. Is Netflix free? No, you must create a Netflix user account and subscribe to Netflix service. I am having difficulty accessing Netflix or other subscription based services. Please contact the service provider directly to resolve content related issues. I forget my secure access code. Please refter to the user manual for your router. 22 Other Information 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. Check the wall receptacle (or extension cord) to make sure it is “live” by plugging in another device. 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. 23 Other Information 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. 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. A black box appears on the screen. • Closed captioning might be on. Check Closed Caption in the Setup menu. You are having problems with the HDMI Connection. • • • • Make sure the HDMI or DVI component is turned on and the cables are firmly connected. If problems still occur, turn off your component and reconnect it. Reset the power by unplugging the power cord and 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. You cannot access the Internet even though an ethernet cable and/or Wireless USB Adapter is connected. • • Check another device to the modem. Does it work properly? Confirm your network settings on the TV. My Internet connection is fast, but my access to the Internet is slow. • • Your real access speed is determined by many factors. Activity such as file sharing, multiple users, gaming and other video streaming all use bandwidth. Your ISP could be delivering speeds slower than usual or speeds insuficient to properly operate the online service you are trying to access. Please contact your ISP. 24 Other Information 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.

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.com for updated FAQs or contact TCL Customer Support at the support number provided in your Warranty under “How To Get Service.” Care and Cleaning Caution: Turn OFF your TV before cleaning. 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. 25 Other Information Television Specifications Broadcasting system US System NTSC-M ATSC standard (8VSB), QAM Receiving Channels VHF2-13 UHF14-69 CATV 14-36 (A)-(W) 37-59 (AA)-(WW) 60-85 (AAA)-(ZZZ) 86-94 (86)-(94)95-99 (A-5)-(A-1) 100-135 (100)-(135) 01 (4A) Tuner type Frequency synthesized Screen refresh rate 60Hz 26 TTE Technology, Inc.
