This document is a Quick Setup Guide for Hisense 49K3110PW, 50K3110PW, and 55K3110PW television models. It provides essential information for setting up and using the TV, including accessory lists, stand installation, TV front and rear panel descriptions, connection instructions, remote control functions, and initial setup guidance.
The Hisense TV is designed to provide a comprehensive entertainment experience, offering various connectivity options and user-friendly controls. Before using the TV, it is crucial to read this guide thoroughly and retain it for future reference. For more detailed instructions, users should consult the User Manual.
Safety Precautions
Several safety precautions are highlighted to ensure safe operation and prevent damage to the TV or injury to the user:
- Battery Replacement: Incorrect replacement of batteries may pose a risk, including the use of a similar or same type. Batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat from sources like sun, fire, or similar conditions.
- Liquid Exposure: The device should not be exposed to dripping or spraying liquids and should not be placed under objects filled with liquids.
- Power Disconnect: The main plug serves as the disconnect device and should remain readily operable.
- Hearing Safety: Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss.
- Stand/Wall-Mount Installation: Always disconnect the A/C power cord before installing the stand or wall-mount brackets. The LED display is extremely fragile; protect it from hard or sharp objects that could scratch or damage it. Avoid exerting pressure on the front of the TV screen, as this could cause it to crack.
- CI+ Module: Before inserting or removing the CI+ module, ensure the TV is switched off. Do not repeatedly insert or remove the Common Access Module, as this can damage the interface and cause malfunctions.
- External Equipment: Do not connect external equipment while the TV's power cord is plugged in, as this may cause electric shock.
- Headphone Use: Ensure that the headphone plugged in does not have a microphone function, as it may not be supported.
- Optical Audio: Before connecting a digital audio system to the Optical jack, decrease the volume of both the TV and the system to prevent a sudden increase in volume.
- USB Devices: If a USB 1.1 or USB 2.0 device requires more than 500mA or 5V, it may not be supported. Exceeding the maximum supported current can result in damage or data loss. For storing video streaming of DTV programs, the USB storage device's transfer rate must be at least 5MB/s.
- Hard Disk/USB Hub: When connecting a hard disk or a USB hub, always connect the mains adapter of the connected device to its power supply.
- TV Power Cycle: It takes several seconds for the TV to power on and load programs. Avoid rapidly turning the TV on and off, as this may cause it to work abnormally.
Usage Features
Installing the Stand
- Carefully place the TV facedown on a soft, flat surface to prevent damage or scratching to the screen.
- Remove the two stands from the accessory bag and insert them into the bottom slots of the TV.
- Secure the base stand to the TV with the four screws provided.

TV Rear Panel and Connections
The TV's rear panel offers a variety of ports for connecting external devices:

- LAN (Wired Setup): Connects the TV to a network using an Ethernet/Cat 5 cable from an external modem or router. It is recommended to use a modem or router that supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for automatic IP address assignment.
- Wireless Setup: The TV has a built-in Wireless LAN Adapter that supports IEEE 802.11 b/g/n communication protocols, allowing wireless connection to a network via a wireless router or modem.
