Ready for the step-by-step? You’re only minutes away from TV bliss!
Be careful, it’s heavy!
To use the stand
A To prevent damage to the screen, carefully place your TV on a soft, cushioned surface.
B Put the column of the stands into the TV, align the stands with the screw holes located on the TV. Secure the stands to the TV with four (4) screws.
Note: Make sure the installation direction of the stand is the same as illustrated.

To use the cable clips
Use the cable clips on the TV stands on the left and right as illustrated below.

Warning:
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:
- Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television set.
- Only using furniture that can safely support the television set.
- Ensuring the television set is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
- Not placing the television set on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a suitable support.
- Not placing the television set on cloth or other materials that may be located between the television set and supporting furniture.
- Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its controls.
If your existing television set is being retained and relocated, the same considerations as above should be applied.
To mount on a wall
Preparation must be done before mounting your TV on a wall.
Note: Do not place your TV in a location exposed to direct sunlight, heat, fire, or moisture. Exposure will damage the TV.

|
Screw the VESA bracket tightly onto the back cover with 4 VESA screws. |
Follow the instructions that come with the wall mount to hang the TV on the wall. |
f you are mounting your TV to the wall, don’t attach the stands
| To mount your TV to the wall, purchase a VESA wall mount |
|
| 55” Models | Purchase a VESA 300x300, 4 M6x20mm screws |
| 65” Models | Purchase a VESA 300x300, 4 M6x20mm screws |
| 75” Models | Purchase a VESA 400x300, 4 M6x20mm screws |
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.
In this step, we’ll make sure all systems are a GO!
Connect your power cable to the TV, then plug it in to the wall outlet.
Power your TV remote by inserting the included batteries.
Connect other devices by referencing port label and descriptions on the next page.

Insert batteries in the correct polarity as indicated in the battery compartment.
Power Tip! 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 supporttcl
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.
