Tip
To access the setup menus, press MENU and
choose Assisted Setup.
Plug in the TV
Plug the flat end of the power cord into the power jack on the back of the TV. Then plug the other
end of the power cord into an appropriate wall outlet. Be sure to insert the plug completely. Do
not plug the TV into an outlet controlled by a light switch.
Note: When you first plug your TV into an outlet, the Power indicator on the front panel
will light for approximately 15 seconds and then go off during the initialization of the TV.
The TV can only be turned on after the Power indicator goes off. This happens every time
the TV is unplugged and plugged back in.
Put Batteries in the Remote
• Remove the battery compartment cover from the back of the remote by pushing down on the
tab and lifting cover.
• Insert 2 fresh “AAA” batteries. Make sure the polarities (+ and -) are aligned correctly with the
polarities inside the remote.
• Replace the cover.
Turn on the TV
Press TV on the remote, or press the Power button on the TV’s front panel.
Note: Pressing the TV button turns on the TV and puts the remote into TV mode. “TV mode”
means that the buttons on the remote control operate the TV’s functions.

Use the Remote Control to Complete
the Assisted Setup
The technical term is “Navigation” – how you move through the on-
screen menus. The method is the same throughout the menu screens:
highlight your choice and select it.
To highlight a menu item, put the remote into TV mode by pressing the
TV button then MENU. Press the arrow buttons on the remote to
highlight one of the items listed in the menu. Use the up or down arrow
button to move up or down. Use the right or left arrow button to move
right or left.
To select the item that you’ve highlighted, press OK.
Note: Highlighted means that the menu item stands out from
other menu items on the list (appears darker, brighter, or a
different color).
Complete the Assisted Setup
Your TV’s menu system allows you to adjust your TV’s features to be
configured to work properly. On-screen information helps you choose
settings to match your setup. The first time you turn on your TV, the
Assisted Setup screens appear automatically. Select Begin Setup to start or
select Cancel Setup to exit.
