Setting up your TV

• Your TV automatically detects your wireless network, so have your network name and password handy and follow the easy on-screen instructions.
• You’ll be prompted to create your Roku account online at https://my.roku.com/link. Your TV generates a unique code that links your TV to your new account.
  Note: Roku accounts are free, and while a valid credit card number is not required, providing your card information makes renting and purchasing entertainment a breeze.
• Once connected to your account, your TV automatically updates with the latest software, and you can start streaming immediately.
  Note: If you aren’t ready to connect your TV to a wireless network, you can still use it as a regular TV.

Maintaining

• Do not use your TV in areas that are too hot or too cold, because the cabinet may warp or the screen may malfunction. Your TV works best in temperatures that are comfortable to you.

• Working temperatures are 41° to 95°F (5° to 35°C).
• Do not place your TV in direct sunlight or near a heat source.

Cleaning your TV cabinet
