Be careful, it’s heavy!
If you are mounting your TV to the wall, don’t attach the stands.
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.
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:
If your existing television set is being retained and relocated, the same considerations as above should be applied.
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
The TV remote should feel right at home in your hand. We designed it to be incredibly intuitive for watching TV and navigating on-screen menus.

Activate your TCL Roku TV using your computer, smartphone, or tablet to link to a Roku account. You need a Roku account to activate your TV and access entertainment across thousands of streaming channels.

Once connected to your account, your TV will automatically update with the latest software, and you can start streaming immediately.
If you aren't ready to connect your TV to a wireless network, you can still use it as a regular TV.
