Overview

This document is a Quick Start Guide for an Element Roku TV, specifically an 86-inch 4K model. It provides essential information for setting up, connecting, and using the television, as well as support resources.

Function Description

The Element Roku TV is a smart television designed to provide a comprehensive entertainment experience. It integrates the Roku platform, offering access to thousands of streaming channels, live TV, and various media content. The TV supports 4K resolution, ensuring a high-quality visual experience. It can be used as a standalone smart TV for streaming, connected to external devices like Blu-ray players or gaming consoles, or used with an antenna for over-the-air broadcasts. The built-in Roku operating system simplifies navigation and content discovery.

Usage Features

Initial Setup:

The guide outlines a straightforward setup process. Users begin by unboxing the TV and identifying all included components, such as the TV itself, remote control, stand screws, and TV stand. It also lists items not included but necessary for setup, including a Phillips head screwdriver, wireless router, internet connection, and a smartphone, computer, or tablet for activation.

Stand Installation:

For tabletop placement, the guide provides instructions for installing the TV stand. It emphasizes the TV's weight (over 96 lbs) and recommends a minimum of two people for installation. Users are advised to place the TV screen-down on a soft, flat surface to prevent scratches. The stand is attached using the provided screws and a Phillips screwdriver. Handles on the back of the TV are highlighted for safe lifting and positioning.

Wall Mounting:

Alternatively, the TV can be wall-mounted. The guide specifies that the wall mount (not included) and supporting structure must be capable of holding over 96 lbs and be properly anchored. It details the VESA mounting pattern (600 x 400 mm) and the required screw size (M8 x 28 mm, max depth). Users are advised to consult a professional installer if they have doubts about safe installation.

Remote Control:

The included remote control is designed for intuitive navigation. It features standard buttons for power, volume, channel navigation, and menu access. Specific Roku functions include a "Home" button to return to the Roku Home screen, "Back" for previous screens, and an "OK" button for selection. Unique Roku features include "Instant Replay" for replaying the last few seconds of streaming video, "Sleep" to set a sleep timer, and "Options" to access picture settings and more. The remote also has dedicated buttons for rewind, play/pause, and fast forward, making media control seamless. The guide notes that the actual remote may include pre-set channel buttons.

Connecting Devices:

The TV offers a variety of ports for connecting external devices:

  • ANT/CABLE: For connecting an outdoor or indoor antenna to receive over-the-air broadcasts.
  • HDMI: For connecting Blu-ray players, DVD players, gaming consoles, and other external devices, providing the highest quality audio/visual connection.
  • OPTICAL: For connecting an optical cable from an external digital audio system.
  • HEADPHONE: For connecting headphones or external speakers.
  • LAN: For connecting an Ethernet cable to access a network or the internet. The TV also supports wireless connectivity.
  • USB: For connecting a USB device to browse photos, music, movies, or pause live TV.
  • VIDEO IN (Composite): For connecting a composite video cable and left-right audio cables from an external AV device.

Connecting an Antenna:

For over-the-air entertainment, users can connect an antenna to the ANT/CABLE port. The setup wizard guides users through the process, and the Antenna/Live TV icon on the home screen provides access to broadcast content. The TV also features a "Live TV Pause" function, allowing users to pause up to 90 minutes of live antenna TV by connecting a 16 GB or larger USB drive.

Smart TV Activation:

To unlock the full smart TV capabilities, the TV needs to be activated by linking it to a Roku account using a computer, smartphone, or tablet. The guide explicitly states that Roku does not charge for activation support and warns against scams. While a credit card is not required to create a Roku account, saving credit card information can expedite renting and purchasing content from the Roku Channel Store. Once connected and activated, the TV automatically updates its software, enabling immediate streaming.

On-Screen Instructions:

Upon powering on, the TV presents easy on-screen instructions for initial setup, including detecting wireless networks. Users should have their network name and password ready. The TV can still function as a regular TV even if not connected to a wireless network.

Universal Remote Setup:

For users who prefer to use their cable set-top box or satellite receiver remote as a universal remote, the guide advises referring to the manual provided by their service provider for programming instructions. Common universal remote codes can also be found on the Roku website.

Maintenance Features

Battery Replacement:

The guide provides instructions for inserting the included AAA batteries into the remote control, emphasizing correct polarity (+ and -). It recommends always replacing dead batteries with two brand-new batteries from the same manufacturer and never using damaged batteries. A warning is included regarding remote control getting warm/hot during use, advising discontinuation of use and contacting support immediately.
