TCL 50P725 - Smart Android TV Manual

Important information

Safety

Ensure that your domestic mains supply voltage matches the voltage indicated on the identification sticker located at the back of your set. Where the mains plug, AC inlet or an appliance coupler is used as disconnect device, it shall remain readily operable.

On certain models, the light indicator is located at the side of the TV set. The absence of a light indication at the front does not mean that the TV set is fully disconnected from the mains. To disconnect the TV set completely, the mains plug must be pulled out.

The TV set's components are sensitive to heat. The maximum ambient temperature should not exceed 35º Celsius. Do not cover the vents at the back or sides of the TV set. Leave sufficient space around it to allow adequate ventilation. Install the appliance away from any source of heat (fireplace, etc.) or appliances creating strong magnetic or electric fields.

Moisture in rooms where the set is installed should not exceed 75% humidity. Moving the set from a cold place to a warm one can cause condensation on the screen (and on some components inside the TV set). Let the condensation evaporate before switching the TV set on again.

The or POWER/ button on the TV set or the button on the remote control can be used to switch it on and put it into standby mode. If you are not going to be watching the TV for a lengthy period of time, switch it off completely by removing the plug from the mains power socket.

During thunderstorms, we recommend that you disconnect the TV set from the mains and aerial so that it is not affected by electrical or electromagnetic surges that could damage it. For this reason, keep the mains and aerial sockets accessible so they can be disconnected, if necessary.

Unplug the TV set immediately if you notice it giving off a smell of burning or smoke. You must never, under any circumstances, open the TV set yourself, as you run the risk of an electric shock in doing so.

This appliance is intended for domestic household use only and should not be used for any other application, such as for non-domestic use or in a commercial environment.

If the external flexible cable or cord of this product is damaged, it shall be replaced by the manufacturer or his service agent or a similar qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

Leave more than 10cm clearance around the television to allow adequate ventilation. The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation openings with items, such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc.

The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases shall be placed on the apparatus.

Batteries (battery pack or batteries installed) shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.

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:

• ALWAYS use cabinets or stands or mounting methods recommended by the manufacturer of the television set.
• ALWAYS use furniture that can safely support the television set.
• ALWAYS ensure the television set is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
• ALWAYS educate children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its controls.
• ALWAYS route cords and cables connected to your television so they cannot be tripped over, pulled or grabbed.
• NEVER place a television set in an unstable location.
• NEVER place the television set on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a suitable support.
• NEVER place the television set on cloth or other materials that may be located between the television set and supporting furniture.
• NEVER place items that might tempt children to climb, such as toys and remote controls, on the top of the television or furniture on which the television is placed.

If the existing television set is going to be retained and relocated, the same considerations as above should be applied.

TV screen

The TV screen used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or impacted upon by other objects.

The TV screen is a very high technology product, giving you finely detailed pictures. Occasionally, a few nonactive pixels may appear on the screen as a fixed point of blue, green or red. This does not affect the performance of your product.

Care

Use a glass-cleaning product to clean the screen and a soft cloth and mild detergent to clean the rest of the set.

Using strong detergents, alcohol-based and abrasive products may damage the screen.

Dust the vents at the back and sides regularly. Using solvents, abrasive or alcohol-based products could damage the TV set. If an object or liquid enters the appliance, unplug it immediately and have it checked by an authorized engineer. Never open the appliance yourself since this may put you at risk or damage the appliance.

ESD regulation

This apparatus meets ESD performance criteria. In case the apparatus does not recover in Ethernet connection mode or USB playing mode due to electrostatic discharge, user intervention is required.

Bluetooth function notice

Bluetooth^® technology (if available in your TV) uses 2.4GHz frequency thus close proximity to WiFi access points, routers or microwave ovens might interfere with Bluetooth audio streaming. If you face interruptions in audio reception, you should restart your Bluetooth device to find frequency with less interferences and if you continue to face issues you should move closer to TV or increase space between TV and source of interferences.

Troubleshooting

Please check the following list before requesting service.

There is no picture or sound.

• Make sure the power cord is properly inserted in the power outlet.
• Make sure the source type is set correctly.
• Make sure the antenna is properly connected.
• Make sure the volume is not set to minimum or the sound is not set to mute.
• Make sure the headphones are not connected.
• The TV may be receiving a signal other than from TV broadcasting stations.

Picture is not clear.

• Make sure the antenna cable is properly connected.
• Consider whether your TV signal is being properly received.
• Poor picture quality can occur due to a VHS camera, camcorder, or other peripheral being connected at the same time. Switch off one of the other peripherals.
• The 'ghost' or double image may be caused by obstruction to the antenna due to high-rise buildings or hills. Using a highly directional antenna may improve the picture quality.
• The horizontal dotted lines shown on the pictures may be caused by electrical interference, e.g., hair dryer, nearby neon lights, etc. Turn off or remove these.

Picture is too dark, too light or tinted.

• Check the colour adjustment.
• Check the brightness setting.
• Check the sharpness function.

Remote control does not work

• Check the batteries of the remote control.
• Make sure the remote sensor window on the TV front is not under strong fluorescent lighting.
• Try to clean the remote sensor window on the TV front with a soft cloth.

If the above suggestions do not solve your technical issue, please refer to the warranty card for service information.
