This document is a Quick Setup Guide for Hisense televisions, specifically models HE32M2160HTS and HE40M2160FTS. It provides essential information for setting up and using the TV, including installation, connections, and remote control operation.
Function Description
The Hisense TV serves as a display unit for various video and audio sources. It can receive broadcast television signals (Analog, DTV, DVB-T/T2/C, DVB-S/S2), display content from external A/V devices via HDMI, SCART, YPbPr, and Composite inputs, and function as a monitor for a PC via VGA. Additionally, it supports USB devices for browsing photos, listening to music, watching recorded movies, and system updates. The TV also features a Common Interface (CI+) slot for watching scrambled pay-TV and HD channels. Audio output options include headphones and digital audio out for external sound systems.
Usage Features
Installation:
The TV requires a stand for tabletop use, which is attached using four screws (ST4 × 12F for 32" models, ST4 × 14F for 40" models). The screen is fragile and must be protected during stand installation; avoid exerting pressure on the front of the TV. Always disconnect the AC power cord before installing the stand or wall-mount brackets. Place the TV facedown on a soft, cushioned surface to prevent damage.
TV Front:
The front of the TV features a remote sensor to receive signals from the remote control and a remote indicator. The indicator shows a red light in standby mode and a blue light in power-on mode. A single button on the TV allows users to turn it on, put it in standby mode (by pressing for a few seconds), and select different signal sources (by touching).
TV Rear and Bottom Panel Connections:
The TV offers a variety of input and output ports:
- ANT1 (DVB-T2/C): For connecting an outdoor VHF/UHF antenna or cable for terrestrial digital TV.
- ANT2 (DVB-S/S2): For connecting a satellite antenna. This jack supports power supply for the satellite antenna (DC13/18V = 0.5A max.).
- HDMI (HDMI 1, HDMI 2, HDMI 3): For connecting external A/V equipment like DVD/Blu-Ray players, AV receivers, or set-top boxes. HDMI ports carry both video and audio signals, eliminating the need for separate audio cables. HDMI 1 supports ARC (Audio Return Channel).

- PC (VGA and Audio): For connecting a computer as a monitor.
- YPbPr (Component): For connecting external A/V devices using component video (Y, Pb, Pr) and stereo audio (L/R) cables.
- AV/COMP(L/R) (Composite): For connecting external A/V devices using composite video (yellow) and stereo audio (white, red) cables.
- COMMON INTERFACE (CARD FACE FRONT): For inserting a CI+ module and SmartCard to watch scrambled pay-TV and HD channels.
- DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (Optical): For connecting to an external digital audio system or amplifier/speaker.
- HEADPHONE: For connecting headphones for private listening.

- Ensure all connections are tight and secure to prevent image or color problems.
- Disconnect the mains plug from the wall socket before connecting external equipment to avoid electric shock.
- When connecting a hard disk or USB hub, connect its mains adapter to the power supply to prevent damage from excessive current consumption (maximum 500mA for the USB port).
- The USB port supports 5V voltage.
- The maximum supported storage space for a hard disk is 1TB.
- For DTV program recording (Timeshift and record 2.5 hours HD video), a USB storage device with a transfer rate of at least 5MB/s and more than 20GB capacity is required.

Audio Output:
- Before connecting a digital audio system to the OPTICAL jack, decrease the volume of both the TV and the external system to avoid sudden loud sounds.
Remote Control Battery Maintenance:
- Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area; do not throw them into fire.
- Do not mix battery types or combine used and new batteries.
- Remove depleted batteries immediately to prevent battery acid leakage.
- Remove batteries if the remote control will not be used for a long time.
- Do not expose batteries to excessive heat (sunshine, heat registers, fire).
- If battery chemicals leak, clean the battery compartment with a cloth and wash skin immediately if contact occurs.
Power On/Off:
