CHILD SAFETY:
PROPER TELEVISION PLACEMENT MATTERS
THE CONSUMER ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY CARES
• Manufacturers, retailers and the rest of the consumer
electronics industry are committed to making home
entertainment safe and enjoyable.
• As you enjoy your television, please note that all
televisions – new and old- must be supported on
proper stands or installed according to the
manufacturer’s recommendations. Televisions that are
inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases,
shelves, desks, speakers, chests, carts, etc., may fall
over, resulting in injury.
TUNE IN TO SAFETY
•ALWAYS follow the manufacturer’s recommendations
for the safe installation of your television.
•ALWAYS read and follow all instructions for proper
use of your television.
•NEVER allow children to climb on or play on the
television or the furniture on which the television is
placed.
•NEVER place the television on furniture that can
easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.
•ALWAYS install the television where it cannot be
pushed, pulled over or knocked down.
•ALWAYS route cords and cables connected to the
television so that they cannot be tripped over, pulled
or grabbed.
WALL OR CEILING MOUNT YOUR TELEVISION
•ALWAYS contact your retailer about professional
installation if you have any doubts about your ability
to safely mount your television.
•ALWAYS use a mount that has been recommended
by the television manufacturer and has a safety
certication by an independent laboratory (such as
UL, CSA, ETL).
•ALWAYS follow all instructions supplied by the
television and mount manufacturers.
•ALWAYS make sure that the wall or ceiling where you
are mounting the television is appropriate. Some
mounts are not designed to be mounted to walls and
ceilings with steel studs or cinder block construction.
If you are unsure, contact a professional installer.
• Televisions can be heavy. A minimum of two people
is required for a wall or ceiling mount installation.
MOVING AN OLDER TELEVISION TO A NEW PLACE
IN YOUR HOME
• Many new television buyers move their older CRT
televisions into a secondary room after the purchase
of a at-panel television. Special care should be
made in the placement of older CRT televisions.
•ALWAYS place your older CRT television on furniture
that is sturdy and appropriate for its size and weight.
•NEVER place your older CRT television on a dresser
where children may be tempted to use the drawers
to climb.
•ALWAYS make sure your older CRT television does
not hang over the edge of your furniture.

Note(s)
●
Using your Roku TV on a restricted public network requires wireless
availability and use of your network-connected smartphone, tablet, or
computer to authenticate access to your account. You must use your Roku
TV remote to initiate the connection process. Streaming content might be
limited due to your geographic location or because of restrictions imposed
by the network host.

3 Connections and setup
Refer to your TV’s Quick Start Guide or other provided documentation
to for model-specific information about attaching the base or a wall
mount and making connections to AC power and to your other audio/
video devices. The following information applies to all Roku TV
models.
Connecting an antenna, cable, or satellite box
If you are using an antenna, CATV cable without a set-top box, or a
cable or satellite box that has only an antenna output, connect a 75ohm coaxial cable (not provided) from the device to the ANT/CABLE
input on the TV.
Tip(s)
●
If you are using an antenna with a 300 ohm twin-lead cable, you
need to use a 300-to-75 ohm adapter (not provided) to adapt the
twin-lead cable to a connection that is compatible with the TV’s
antenna input.
●
If you receive your TV stations through a set top box from a cable
or satellite TV provider, connect it to the TV using the best
connection method available. From most to least desirable:
–
HDMI® input – Digital HD and SD video
–
AV input – analog SD video
–
Antenna input – analog SD video using NTSC
Connecting external equipment with a composite AV
video cable
If the best connection available on your device is AV or composite
video output, connect it to the TV using a composite AV cable (not
provided). Composite AV cables typically have three RCA-type plugs
on each end, color coded as follows:
–
Yellow– Video
–
Red– Audio, right channel
–
White or black– Audio, left channel
Connect each plug to the corresponding connector on the device and
on the TV.
Connecting external equipment with an HDMI® cable
If possible, connect your devices using HDMI® cables (not provided).
They help to provide the best video quality and also carry audio
signals, so that only one cable is needed. For better picture quality,
we recommend that you use cables designated as High Speed
HDMI® Cables.
Tip(s)
●
You might need to configure the device to send its signal through
its HDMI® connector
The connector labeled HDMI IN (ARC) has the additional ability to
use the audio return channel to send digital audio to a receiver or
sound bar, as explained in Connecting an AV receiver or digital
sound bar L p. 11
Connecting an AV receiver or digital sound bar
You can enjoy Dolby Audio™ multichannel sound from your TV if you
connect a digital amplifier or sound bar (not provided) in either of two
ways:
●
Digital optical audio out (S/PDIF) – Connect a TOSLINK optical
cable (not provided) from the TV to the Optical input on your
receiver or sound bar.
●
HDMI® ARC – Connect an HDMI® cable (not provided) from the
HDMI (ARC) connector to the HDMI® input on your
receiver or sound bar. This connection uses the Audio Return Channel
(ARC) feature of the HDMI® specification to output sound from the TV
to a compatible device. To use this feature, you must configure the TV
to enable HDMI® ARC, as explained in Enable HDMI®ARC L p. 56.
Note(s)
●
Select models have an AV Input that looks like a headphone jack. Use the
breakout cable (included) to adapt this input to the three RCA-type plugs
on your composite cable.
Preparing for Internet connectivity
If you want to watch streaming content and take advantage of the
cool features of your Roku TV, connect it to the Internet through a
wireless modem/router or a wireless access point (not provided). The
TV has a built-in wireless LAN adapter (2.4GHz, 5GHz, IEEE 802.11
b/g/n/ac).
Note(s)
●
The TV supports only its internal wireless network adapter—iit does not
support the use of a USB network adapter.
Select 4K models have wired in addition to wireless network
connectivity. To use the wired network connection, connect an RJ-45
Ethernet cable (not provided) from the jack on the back of your TV to
your network router or switch. The wired connection supports both 10
Base-T and 100 Base-T Ethernet.
AC power
Plug your TV into a power outlet. You can tell that the TV has power
because the status indicator lights up when the TV is off.
The topic Status indicator L p. 26
shows what is happening with the TV.
explains how the status indicator

4 Guided Setup
With the preliminaries out of the way, it’s time to turn on your TV. As
the TV starts for the first time, it leads you through Guided Setup, which
configures the TV before you start to use it.
–
During Guided Setup, you’ll:
–
Answer a few questions
–
Provide network connection information
–
Get a software update
–
Link your TV to your Roku account.
–
Connect devices such as a DVD player, game console, or cable
box.
Starting Guided Setup
To start Guided Setup, press the 9 button on the remote to turn on
your TV.
Note(s)
●
Guided Setup normally runs only once, the first time you turn on your TV. If
you need to run Guided Setup again, you’ll have to perform a factory reset,
as explained in Factory reset everything L p. 57.
When you first turn on your TV, it will take a few seconds to get itself
ready. You’ll notice the following things happening:
The status indicator blinks every time the TV is busy doing
1
something; in this case it’s powering up and getting ready for you.
The power-on screen appears and the status indicator blinks
2
slowly for a few more seconds. The power-on screen shows a
brand logo while the TV starts up.
After a few seconds, Guided Setup starts.
3
Completing Guided Setup
Follow these steps to complete Guided Setup. At this point, you
should be seeing the Language screen.
Tip(s)
●
On TVs sold in the United States, if you are blind or visually
impaired, you can activate Audio Guide, a text-to-speech screen
reader to help you navigate the TV’s menus and commands. To
enable the Audio Guide, press the A button on the remote four
times in rapid succession. Repeat to disable Audio Guide. (The
button is located directly below the directional pad on the right
side of the Roku remote.)
Note(s)
●
If you enabled Audio Guide, choosing any language other than English
disables it.
Press the Down arrow on the remote to highlight your preferred
2
language, and then press OK or the Right arrow.

any other use. In store mode, some features of the TV are missing or limited.
To switch from one mode to the other, you have to perform a factory reset
as explained in Factory reset everything L p. 57, and then repeat Guided
Setup.
Network connection
After you select Set up for home use, the TV prompts you to make a
network connection. If your TV has both wired and wireless
connections, you’ll see the following screen.

“padlock” icon adjacent to the name. This icon enables you to
know that you are going to be prompted to enter a password after
you select that network.
Only if you select a password protected wireless network: An on-
8
screen keyboard appears. Use the keyboard to enter the network
password.
As soon as the TV is able to connect to the Internet, it downloads
and installs its first software update, and then restarts.
Tip(s)
●
Your TV automatically checks for updates periodically.
These updates provide new features and improve your overall
experience with the TV. After an update, you might notice that
some Options have moved, and that there are new options or
features. This User Guide describes version 8.0. To determine your
current Roku TV software version, go to Settings > System >
About after you complete Guided Setup. You can download an
updated User Guide that matches your Roku TV software version
from the Roku TV web site.
Activation
After the TV restarts, it displays the Activation screen:
After you submit your wireless network password, the TV displays
progress messages as it connects to your wireless network, your
local network, and the Internet.
Only if your TV cannot get the correct time zone and current time
9
from your network service provider: Use the Up and Down arrows
to highlight your time zone, and then press OK.
Tip(s)
●
Your TV needs to know the local time zone so that it can correctly
display information about the program you are currently watching.
If the TV is unable to automatically determine the local time zone,
it prompts you to choose your time zone from a list.
Using a compatible computer, tablet, or smartphone with an
10
Internet connection, go to the web address displayed on the
screen and enter the code that appears on your screen.
Note(s)
●
Please enter the website address exactly as displayed. There is no charge
for activation. If a website is indicating a charge, please check the address
carefully and reenter.
Why do I need a Roku account?
You need a Roku account for several reasons:
●
It links you, your Roku TV, and your other Roku streaming
devices to the Roku Channel Store and billing service.
●
Streaming content providers know that it’s OK to send content
you request to your Roku TV.
●
Roku can automatically send updates to your device.
You need a Roku account to activate your device and access
entertainment across thousands of streaming channels. Roku
accounts are free, and while a valid credit card number is not
required to create your account, providing your credit card
information makes renting and purchasing entertainment from
the Roku Channel Store fast and convenient.
After you log in or create your Roku account, the link page suggests
that you select some streaming channels. After you confirm your
selections, the TV gets an acknowledgement, and then adds your
preexisting and newly-selected streaming channels to your Roku TV.
This process is automatic and takes a few moments—a little longer if
you already have a lot of streaming channels to add.
Tip(s)
●
Streaming channels from all Roku streaming devices associated
with your account are synchronized periodically, so that all of your
Roku streaming devices have the same set of streaming channels
(subject to compatibility with the device).
19 .English
Connect your devices
Next, Guided Setup helps you set up the external devices that you
want to use with it, such as a cable box, Blu-ray™ player, or game
console.
Press OK or the Right arrow to proceed:
11
While setting up your devices, rather than using the predefined
14
names and icons, you can set a custom name and icon. To do so,
scroll up or down to highlight Set custom name & icon, and then
press OK. Follow the instructions on the screen to enter a name
and select an icon for the input. See Rename inputs L p. 45.
Note(s)
●
If you have renamed the inputs, you cannot use voice commands to switch
inputs. Voice commands can only switch among inputs that have their
original names, such as “AV,” and “HDMI 1.”
Repeat the previous step for each input.
15
You’re done with Guided Setup.
Connect all the devices you plan to use with your TV, turn them
12
all on, and then select Everything is plugged in and turned on.
The TV now takes you step by step through each of its inputs and
asks what kind of device you have connected. On each input that
has a connected and active device, you can see its picture and
hear its sound.
Note(s)
●
Some Roku TVs, depending on where you live and other factors, show you
an introductory video filled with some great hints and tips. If you’re not
interested in viewing this video, press 8 on the remote to return to the Roku
TV Home screen.
Whenever you press 8 on the remote, the Home screen greets you.
From here, you can explore everything your TV has to offer. Press the
arrow keys to move around, and press OK to select a highlighted item.
We’ve designed the TV to encourage you to explore, and you can
probably figure out most of the capabilities and settings on your own.
If you have any questions or difficulties, you can find answers and
solutions in this guide.

What is streaming?
Streaming is viewing or listening to video or audio content that is sent
over the Internet, or located on a network-connected media server or
on a USB device plugged into the TV’s USB port.
With streaming, you can buy or rent most programs on demand, when
it’s convenient for you. When streaming, you can play, pause, rewind,
and fast forward most of what you are watching. You can also replay
the last few seconds again, or turn on closed captions.
Tip(s)
●
Some content cannot be paused or skipped. For example, if you
are viewing live programming or a program that is supported by
ads, you might not be allowed to skip the ads.
Your Roku TV lets you choose from thousands of streaming channels
that offer a huge selection of entertainment:
●
Thousands of movies and TV episodes
●
Unlimited music, live and on-demand
●
Tons of live and on-demand sports
●
Commercial-free kids programming
●
International programming in 22 languages
●
24x7 news and in-depth news commentary
Many streaming channels are free. Some streaming channels, like
Google Play, let you purchase or rent the latest movie releases or
popular TV series. Some channels such as Netflix or Acorn TV charge
a monthly subscription fee and others are available at no additional
cost if you subscribe to a companion service through your cable or
satellite provider.
If you have an existing subscription to a service like Netflix, you can
just sign in with your existing user name and password.
To play streaming content, you add streaming channels to your Home
screen. Use the Streaming Channels option on the Home screen
menu to go to the Roku Channel Store, and then select the streaming
channel you want to add. The channel remains on your Home screen
unless you remove it, and you can watch it at any time.
For more information on using the Roku Channel Store feature, see
Using the Roku Channel Store L p. 44.
What if I didn’t connect my TV?
What if you went through Guided Setup and chose Connect to the
Internet later? No worries. Your Roku TV makes it easy to connect
whenever you want. As you move around the Home screen, you’ll see
several places where you can start the connection process. For
example:
●
Now and then you’ll see a message appear on the panel to the right
of the Home screen offering a Connect Now option. Simply highlight
and select the Connect Now option to get started.
●
Use the Connect and activate now option in the Settings menu.
From the Home screen menu, select Settings, then Network, and
then Connect and activate now.
●
If you want to start over from the beginning, use the Settings
to do a Factory reset, and then go through Guided Setup again. This
time, choose your home network when prompted.

6 Setting up Antenna TV
In addition to the other entertainment possibilities of your Roku TV,
you may also want to watch broadcast channels from an antenna or
cable TV service connected to the ANT input. On your Roku TV, you
watch broadcast TV in much the same way you watch other
entertainment choices. You select a tile—in this case, the Antenna TV
tile—from the Home screen.
The first time you select the Antenna TV tile, you have to set up the
TV tuner. Setting up the TV tuner scans for active channels and adds
them to your Antenna TV channel list.
Why do I have to set up the TV tuner?
Not everyone needs to use the TV tuner. For example, you might have
a set top box provided by a cable or satellite company that receives
all of your channels. Most of these set top boxes use an HDMI
connection.
More and more people are watching only streaming TV and do not
have a TV antenna or cable/satellite service. If you don’t need the TV
tuner, you can bypass setting it up and instead remove it from the
Home screen as explained in Remove unwanted tiles L p. 45.
When you set up Antenna TV, the TV scans the signals on its antenna
input for channels with a good signal, and adds those to the channel
list, skipping dead channels and channels with a very weak signal.
The TV lets you add two analog channels, even if they have no signal,
for the purpose of using an older set top box, VCR, or game console
that can only output a signal on analog channel 3 or 4. Typically, you’ll
only need one of these channels, but both are provided to make
setup simpler. You can hide the one you don’t want as explained in
Edit Antenna TV channel lineupL p.46.
®
If prompted, select your time zone. You’ll only need to do this if
4
the TV can’t figure out your time zone from your Internet
connection.
Why does the TV need my time zone?
The TV needs to know your time zone so that it can correctly
display time information about the program you are currently
watching.
When prompted, select whether to add analog channels 3 and 4.
5
These channels enable you to connect older set top boxes, VCRs,
or game consoles.
24 .English
How do I set up the TV tuner?
Make sure your antenna (not provided) or TV cable is connected
1
to the TV’s ANT/CABLE input.
On the Home screen, select the Antenna TV tile.
2
Read the simple on-screen instructions, and then select Start
3
finding channels.
Wait while your TV scans for Antenna TV stations…
6
… and then cable TV channels.
Scanning for channels can take several minutes.
Tip(s)
●
If you use a set-top box to receive cable TV channels (and don’t
have your cable connected directly to the TV’s ANT input), you can
save time by skipping the cable TV portion of the channel scan.
When the channel scans finish, the TV shows the number of
7
channels it added.
25 .English
Now, you’re ready to watch Antenna TV! While you’re watching, try
the following tips:
●
Press the Up and Down arrows to change channels.
●
Press the Left arrow to display the channel list (non-connected
mode) or Smart Guide (connected mode), and then use the Up and
Down arrows to select a channel to watch. Or press Rewind
forward to jump through the channel list or Smart Guide a page at
a time.
●
Press OK to display information about the current program.
●
Press A to see options for picture and sound settings.
●
Only on models that have a Roku voice remote, hold down D or E,
and then say the name of a movie, TV show, actor, or director. The
TV displays the result and the streaming channels that offer the
requested content. Only in the United States, the results also include
shows on Antenna TV channels.
Note(s)
●
If you do not have a Roku voice remote, you can use the Roku mobile app
to search. For more information, see Getting and using the Roku mobile
appL p.60.
or Fast
Only in connected mode, you have the option of setting up Live
8
TV Pause. The topic Pausing Live TV L p. 30 explains how to
set up and use this feature. If you don’t want to set up Live TV
Pause, or if this option is not available to you, select Done to start
watching Live TV.
Tip(s)
●
Repeat the channel scan from time to time to make sure you are
receiving all of the latest channels. Broadcasters add and remove
channels, move channels to different parts of the spectrum, and
change the power levels of their channels periodically. Your
antenna reception and picture quality depend on the position of
your antenna and on your location relative to the antennas of
broadcasters in your area.
Note(s)
●
You’ll have to repeat the channel scan if you remove and re-add the
Antenna TV tile from the Home screen or perform a factory reset. To repeat
the channel scan, go to Settings > TV inputs > Antenna TV > Scan again forchannels > Start finding channels.

Standby mode energy savings
When you turn off your TV, it remains in a higher power mode for a
few minutes, after which it goes into a very low power standby mode.
If you turn on the TV again before it has entered the very low power
mode, it turns on immediately. After the TV goes into the lower power
standby mode, it takes a few seconds longer to start up.
Only in connected mode on TVs that do not have an Energy Star
rating, you can optionally enable Fast TV start. When this option is
enabled, your TV starts up almost immediately regardless of how long
it has been turned off, but uses somewhat more power in standby
mode. For more information, see Fast TV start
®
Opting in to Smart TV experience (U.S.
only)
Only in connected mode in the United States, the first time you select
Antenna TV, an HDMI input, or AV input, your TV offers to enable the

set to enjoy its recommendations and features.
The Smart TV experience uses automatic content recognition (ACR)
and other technology to collect information about what you watch
through your Antenna TV, and on devices like media players and
cable boxes connected to the HDMI or AV inputs. Opting in means
that you give permission to analyze the programs you watch for the
purpose of making recommendations, as well showing ads that are
more relevant to you.
If you decide not to enable the Smart TV experience at this first
opportunity, you can enable it later. Or, if you decide you’d rather not
use the feature, you can disable it, but be aware that previously
collected information is retained and not deleted.

Using your TV in a dorm room
Hotels, school dorms, conference facilities, and similar locations with
public wireless Internet access often require you to interact with a web
page to authenticate your access. These types or networks are called
restricted public networks. When you select a network of this type, the
TV automatically detects that additional information is needed and
prompts you through using another wireless device to supply the
requested information.
About using your TV on a restricted public network
Here are some points to keep in mind when using your TV on a
restricted public network:
●
Using your Roku TV on a hotel or dorm room network requires
wireless availability and a network-connected smartphone,
tablet, or computer to authenticate access to your wireless access
point.
●
You will need your Roku TV remote.
●
Some content might be limited or unavailable if you try to connect
outside your home country due to geo-filtering.
Getting your Roku TV on line on a restricted public network
Either during Guided Setup or after using the Settings
1
menu to set up a new connection, the TV automatically detects
that you are connecting to a restricted network and displays the
following prompt:
> Network
After selecting the correct network, highlight I am at a hotel or
2
college dorm, and then press OK. The TV prompts you to use your
smartphone, tablet, or laptop to complete the connection.
Use a phone, tablet, or wireless-enabled computer to detect
3
wireless networks. In most cases, you can simply open the
device’s Wi-Fi Settings or Network Settings screen to start
scanning.
Note(s)
●
The phone, tablet, or computer must be on the same wireless network to
which you are connecting the TV.
Connect to the network named on your TV screen. The actual
4
network name varies.
Tip(s)
●
Your TV can connect to a restricted network only if Enable ‘Device
connect’ is selected in Settings > System > Advanced systemsettings. (Device connect is enabled by default, but if you have
disabled it, the TV cannot complete the connection.)
Note(s)
●
Device connect is not present if the TV is in non-connected mode.
Note(s)
●
The previous step connects your smartphone, tablet, or computer directly
to the TV. No connection charges apply and the connection does not impact
your device’s data plan.
The wireless connection process prompts you for a password.
5
Enter the password as shown on the TV screen. The actual
password varies.
Start the web browser on your smartphone, tablet, or computer.
6
When you attempt to open any web page, the restricted
connection will prompt you for whatever information it needs. In
most cases, you must agree to terms and conditions, provide
identifying information, or enter a password, PIN, or room number
to proceed. The information requested depends on the
organization that controls the wireless connection.
After you enter the requested information, the TV automatically
7
proceeds to complete its connection and resumes normal
operation.
If the TV prompts you to link to your Roku account, use your
8
smartphone, tablet, or computer to complete the pairing
operation and activate your Roku TV.

a few characters of the search term. With each additional
character you enter, you narrow down the search, making the
search results more relevant. You’ll often see the results you are
seeking after entering only a few letters.
When you see the show you are searching for, navigate to the
3
right to highlight it.
I found a show, now what?
Now that you’ve highlighted the show, movie, actor, game, or
streaming channel you were looking for, press the Right arrow.
If your search result was an actor, director, or other item that does not
represent a single item of content, you’ll see another list to narrow
down your search. Continue highlighting results and pressing the
Right arrow until you find a single, viewable content item.
●
The channel logo appears to the left of each result.
●
Only in the United States, a LIVE TV logo indicates a program that is
available on Antenna TV. Shows currently playing live appear at the
top of the list. Shows airing in the future appear at the bottom of the
list. Selecting a LIVE TV result switches the TV to that channel
regardless of whether the program is currently in progress.
●
An HD logo means that the content is available in high-definition.
●
The checked circle adjacent to the title means you have already
added the streaming channel.
If your search result was a game or a streaming channel, you’ll see
detailed information, images, and available actions, such as a list of
streaming channels and the cost of getting the item or channel.

Some channels may require a paid subscription.
Follow on Roku
Rather than watch the show you found in Search, you can add it to
My Feed and wait until it’s available on a particular streaming channel
or available at a better price. From the search results screen, select
Follow on Roku. Then go to My Feed periodically to check for
updates to each of your followed movies, TV shows, or people. For
more information, see My Feed L p. 41.
Recent Searches
he next time you use Roku Search, the Search screen displays a list
of recent search selections in place of the search instructions.
Using the recent search selections list makes it easy to quickly get to
a previously found item, for example, to find another movie with the
same actor, or another TV show in the same series.
11Using the Roku Channel
Store
Only in connected mode, the Streaming Channels menu option takes
you to the Roku Channel store, where you can add new subscription
based and free streaming channels to your TV.
Tip(s)
●
You also can search for streaming channels by using the Search
option, as explained in Searching for something to watch L
p.42.
To make it easier to find what you want, the streaming channels in the
Roku Channel Store are categorized by topic. Press the Up and Down
arrows to highlight the category you want, and then press the Right
arrow to move the highlight into the grid of streaming channel tiles.
When you find a streaming channel you want to add or learn more
about, highlight it and press OK to display more details.
●
If the streaming channel you are adding is free, you can select Go
to channel to start watching it immediately.
●
If there is a one-time or recurring fee associated with using the
streaming channel, you must agree to the terms and conditions,
accept the fee, and—if you created one when you activated your
Roku TV, enter your Roku PIN code to authorize the charges.
●
If you already have a subscription to the streaming channel—for
example, you already subscribe to Netflix or you receive HBO
through your cable TV provider—you must complete a different,
simple authorization step to add the streaming channel.
You need only complete the authorization or activation step one time,
when you initially add the streaming channel. After that, you simply
select the streaming channel tile from your Home screen to start
watching. (Channel and content availability is subject to change.
Charges may apply to your selection.)
Tip(s)

New streaming channels are added continuously to the Roku
Channel Store, so be sure to check back every now and then for
new options.

12 Customizing your TV
There are several things you can do to personalize your TV.
Add TV inputs
As you use your TV, you might find that you need to add a TV input
tile that you did not add during Guided Setup. To add a TV input:
From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > TV inputs.
1
Notice that the list of inputs is divided into two sections: Inputs
being used and Inputs not used.
Press the UP or DOWN arrows to highlight an input in the Inputs
2
not used section of the list.
Press the RIGHT arrow to move the highlight to Set up input.
3
Press OK to add the input.
4
5
Press 8 to return to the Home screen. Notice that the input has
been added to the top of the Home screen. If you want to move
the input tile to a different position in the grid, see Rearrange
tiles L p. 45.
Add streaming channels
You can add streaming channels by searching in the Roku Channel
Store. New streaming channels are added to the bottom of the Home
screen. If you want to move the channel tile to a different position in
the grid, see Rearrange tiles L p. 45.
Rename inputs
Rather than trying to remember that your Blu-ray™ player is
connected to HDMI 1 and your game console is connected to HDMI
2, you can rename the TV inputs to match the connected device.
Note(s)
●
Renaming an input also changes the icon associated with it.
To rename an input, you can either:
●
Highlight the input tile in the Home screen, and then press A to
display a list of options. From the list of options, select Rename
input. Then select a new name and icon.
or
●
From the Home screen, navigate to Settings > TV inputs. On the TV
inputs screen, select the input you want to rename, select Rename,
and then choose a new name and icon from the provided list.
Rather than using the predefined names and icons, you can set a
custom name and icon. To do so, scroll up or down to highlight Set
custom name & icon, and then press OK. Follow the instructions on
the screen to enter a name and select an icon for the input.
Press 8 to return to the Home screen. The new name and icon are
now in effect.
Remove unwanted tiles
It’s easy to remove unused TV inputs and unwanted channel or app
tiles. For example, if you never use the HDMI 2 input, or if you don’t
like the weather app you added from the Roku Channel Store, you
can remove them from your Home screen.
Note(s)
●
You also can remove the Antenna TV tile if you never use the TV tuner. But
be aware that removing the Antenna TV tile also deletes the channel list.
You’ll have to set up the TV tuner again next time you want to view Antenna
TV. Instructions for setting up the TV tuner can be found in Setting up
Antenna TVL p.24.
●
To remove any tile, highlight the input tile in the Home screen, and
then press A to display a list of options. From the list of options,
select Remove input. In the screen that follows, confirm you want
to remove the input.
●
Alternatively, to remove a TV input tile from the Home screen,
navigate to Settings > TV inputs. On the TV inputs screen, select the
input you want to remove, and then select Remove > Confirm. Then
press 8 to return to the Home screen.
Rearrange tiles
When you add a TV input tile, it’s added at the top of your Home
screen. When you add a new streaming channel, it’s added at the
bottom of your Home screen.
You can easily rearrange the order of the tiles on the Home screen to
suit your viewing preferences. For example, you might want AntennaTV to be the first tile in your Home screen. But if you mostly watch one
streaming channel, you might want its tile to be the first one on your
Home screen.
From the Home screen, highlight one of the tiles you want to
1
move.
2
Press A to display a list of options for the type of tile you selected.
Select Move input or Move channel. The list of options
3
disappears and the highlighted tile shows arrows indicating how
it can be moved.
Note(s)
●
A paid subscription or other payments may be required for some channels.
Channel availability is subject to change and varies by country. Not all
content is available in countries or regions where Roku products are sold.
46 .English
Use the arrow keys to move the highlighted tile to its new position.
4
As you move the tile, it pushes other tiles out of its way.
Press OK to lock the tile into its new position.
5
Repeat these steps to move other tiles until you have arranged
6
your Home screen to your liking.
Change themes
Only in connected mode, another way to customize your TV is to
change its theme. The theme establishes the look and feel of the TV
through colors, designs, and fonts. Some themes require payment.
To change the theme, in the Home screen menu navigate to Settings
> Themes. In the Themes screen, choose from the following options:
●
My themes – Highlight a theme, and then press OK to switch to that
theme.
●
Get more themes – Highlight this option at the bottom of the My
Themes list, and then press OK to shop for new themes.
●
Custom settings – Turn Featured themes on or off. When Featured
themes is on, the TV automatically switches to featured themes–like
certain holiday-inspired themes –for a limited time whenever Roku
makes them available, and then switches back to your selected
theme when the featured theme expires. When off, the TV uses your
selected theme.
Edit Antenna TV channel lineup
When you set up the TV tuner as described in Setting up Antenna
TV L p. 24, the TV adds all the channels with good signals that it can
detect in your area. It’s likely that you now have more channels than
you want in your channel list.
To edit the channel lineup, from the Home screen, navigate to
Settings > TV inputs > Antenna TV > Edit channel lineup. You’ll see
a screen listing all of your channels. Adjacent to the list of channels is
a miniature TV screen playing the highlighted channel’s picture and
sound.
Highlight each channel you want to hide, and then press OK to hide
the channel.
Tip(s)
●
If you need to see or hear the highlighted channel, wait a couple
of seconds for the TV to start playing the channel’s picture and
sound. Also note that if you’ve enabled parental controls and the
program on the current channel is blocked, you won’t see a picture
or hear sound while editing the channel lineup.
47 .English
Change volume
Menu sounds are the noises the TV makes to let you know it received
your command. You can change the volume of these menu sounds
or turn them off.
To adjust the menu volume, in the Home screen menu, navigate to
Settings > Audio > Menu volume. Navigate to the right and then
change the setting to High, Medium, Low, or Off.
Configure power settings
Power settings let you configure features related to how your TV’s
power settings work.
Power on settings
Power on settings tell the TV what to do when you turn on the power.
To configure the power on settings, from the Home screen, navigate
to Settings > System > Power > Power on. Highlight the preferred
power on location in the list, and then press OK.
Auto power savings
To help you save energy, your TV can automatically turn itself off after
a period of inactivity or a period during which no signal has been
detected. It is factory-configured to do both of these things, but you
can change these settings if needed.
To configure automatic power off, from the Home screen menu
navigate to SettingsPower settings screen, highlight the following options and press OK
to turn them on or off:
●
Reduce power after 15 minutes – If no video or audio activity and
no user interaction occur for 15 minutes, the TV automatically turns
off the screen and sound.
●
Turn off after 4 hours – If no video or audio activity and no user
interaction occur for 4 hours, the TV goes into standby mode
> System > Power > Auto power savings. In the
Standby LED On/Off
Normally, the status indicator is lit whenever the TV is in standby
mode. If you prefer the status indicator to not be lit in standby mode,
you can turn it off. To do so, from the Home screen, navigate to
Settings > System > Power > Standby LED, and then select Off.
After making this change, the status indicator still performs all other
indication functions.
Fast TV start
Only in connected mode on TV models that are not Energy Star
certified, you can enable Fast TV start. As you might expect, Fast TV
start lets you start watching your TV almost instantly after turning it on.
But it also enables other convenient features, such as the ability to
turn on your TV using voice commands or the Roku mobile app.
Be aware that enabling Fast TV start makes your TV use somewhat
more power when it is powered off to standby mode.

Configuring parental controls
Parental controls enable you to control whether the members of your
household can view certain kinds of broadcast TV programs. When a
program or feature is blocked, you can unblock it by entering a
parental control PIN that only you know.
Note(s)
●
Parental controls block content from the TV tuner and from streaming
options, if any, on the Home screen menu. Parental controls do not block
content on other TV inputs or content from streaming channels you add to
your TV.
Creating a parental control PIN
The first time you access the Parental controls screen, you must
create a new parental control PIN. Thereafter, whenever you want to
change parental control settings, unblock programming that has been
blocked, change the PIN, or disable parental controls, you must enter
your parental control PIN.
Tip(s)
●
Your parental control PIN has nothing to do with your Roku PIN.
You can make them the same if you want—this is entirely your
choice.
To create a new parental control PIN, from the Home screen menu
navigate to Settings > Parental controls. The screen displays a
numeric keypad. Use the arrow keys and then press OK to enter a four
digit code. Then repeat the process to enter the same PIN again, just
to make sure you correctly entered the PIN you want to use.
Important : If you forget your parental control PIN, the only way to
recover is to perform a factory reset operation, as explained in Factory
reset everythingL p.57. Be sure to write it down in a safe place
just in case.
50 .English
Blocking Featured Free or Movie Store and TV Store
(U.S. only)
One of the parental control options is to completely hide the
entertainment options that are available directly on the Home screen
menu.
To hide Home screen entertainment options:
From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental
1
controls, and then enter your parental control PIN.
In the Parental controls screen, highlight Home screen and then
2
select or clear either of these options:
●
Hide ‘Featured Free’ – Removes the Featured Free option from
the Home screen menu.
●
Hide ‘Movie Store and TV Store’ – Removes the Movie Store
and TV Store options from the Home screen menu.
Tip(s)
●
To use either of these options after you’ve hidden them, you must
return to this screen and remove the check mark from the
corresponding Hide command.
Blocking Broadcast TV shows
For broadcast TV, parental controls use information embedded in the
broadcast signal to determine whether to allow a program to be
displayed. Parents can configure parental controls to block broadcast
TV programs that meet or exceed a specific rating, so they cannot be
viewed or heard unless the correct parental control PIN is entered
Note(s)
●
Rating standards differ by country.
Enabling parental control of TV shows
The first step in blocking TV shows is to enable parental control of TV
shows.
This setting is provided separately to make it easier for you to turn
parental control of TV shows on and off without disturbing their
settings. For example, your kids are going to summer camp for two
weeks, and while they are gone, you don’t want to have to deal with
unblocking shows that you want to watch by entering your parental
control PIN. All you need to do is clear Enable parental controls, and
all TV shows are unblocked. When the kids return, select Enableparental controls again, and all of your parental control settings are
restored in a single operation.
To enable parental control of TV shows:
In the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental
1
controls, and then enter your parental control PIN.
In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV tuner > Parental
2
control of TV shows.
Make sure the check box next to Enable parental controls is
3
checked. If not, highlight it and press OK.
Blocking based on US TV ratings
Most broadcast US TV shows—other than movies—contain rating
data that enables parental controls to block shows that parents don’t
want others to view. The ratings are divided into two groups that
function independently:
●
Youth group – TV-Y, TV-Y7
●
Main group – TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14, TV-MA
Within each of these groups, the ratings interact such that if you block
a particular level of content, the TV also blocks all content with a
higher rating. Conversely, if you unblock a particular level of content,
the TV also unblocks all content with a lower rating. For example, if
you block TV-PG programs, the TV also blocks TV-14 and TV-MA
programs. If you subsequently unblock TV-14 programs, TV-PG
programs are also unblocked, but TV-MA programs remain blocked.
Similarly, within the main group, content types can be individually
blocked. For example, you can block just coarse language in shows
with a TV-PG rating. If you do, then the TV also blocks shows with
coarse language in the higher ratings (TV-14 and TV-MA).
Subsequently unblocking coarse language in TV-14 ratings does not
unblock coarse language in TV-MA programs, but it does unblock
coarse language in TV-PG programs.
To block TV shows based on US television ratings:
From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental
1
controls, and then enter your parental control PIN.
In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV tuner > TV
2
ratings. Choose among the following settings:
●
Entire ratings – Highlight the rating you want to block, and then
navigate to the right and select the first option that blocks the
entire rating level (and all higher rating levels).
●
Individual content types – Highlight the rating that contains the
content type you want to block, and then select the content
types you want to block from among those listed. Remember
that blocking a content type in one rating blocks the equivalent
content type in all higher rating levels.
Blocking based on US movie ratings
Most movies in the US are rated by the Motion Picture Association of
America, or MPAA, so the ratings are known as MPAA ratings. TV
broadcast signals carry movie rating data that enables parental
controls to block shows that parents don’t want others to see. The
ratings are:
●
G – General audiences
●
PG – Parental guidance suggested
●
PG-13 – Parents strongly cautioned for children age 13 or younger
●
R – Restricted
●
NC-17 – Not for age 17 or younger
Unlike US TV ratings, there are no individual content types within the
ratings. But like TV ratings, blocking movies with a particular rating also
blocks movies with a higher rating, and unblocking movies with a
particular rating also unblocks movies with a lower rating.
Tip(s)
●
Blocking movies with an NC-17 rating also blocks programs with
the now-obsolete X rating, which can still occur in the program
data of older movies.
51 .English
To block movies based on MPAA ratings:
From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental
1
controls, and then enter your parental control PIN.
In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV Tuner > Movie
2
ratings.
Select the rating level you want to block. You need only select
3
one rating level, and all higher levels are automatically blocked.
Blocking based on Other ratings
Your TV can block programs having ratings that had not been defined
when the TV was manufactured. It does this by detecting a new Rating
Region Table in a program and then downloading the new table and
displaying its rating in the Parental controls.
When the TV downloads a new Rating Region Table, it adds a new
option to the list of rating types: Other ratings. If you see this option
in the Parental controls screen, you have tuned to a station that has
implemented a new rating table. Once the new rating table has been
downloaded to the TV, it remains in the TV until it is factory reset, and
you can configure blocking based on the new ratings.
New Region Rating Tables can have independent rating levels, or
rating levels that interact in the same ways as the built-in US TV and
MPAA Movie ratings.
Tip(s)
●
If your TV downloads a new Region Rating Table, you’ll have to
experiment with its settings to understand how to use it.
Blocking based on Canadian English ratings
Canadian-English language and third-language programs that are
broadcast in Canada are rated by the Action Group on Violence on
Television, or AGVOT. TV broadcast signals carry rating data that
enables parental controls to block shows that parents don’t want
others to view based on content containing violence, language, sex,
or nudity. The ratings are:
●
C – Children under 8 years
●
C8 – Children 8 years and older
●
G – Generally suitable for all age groups
●
PG – Parental guidance suggested for viewers under 14 years
●
14+ – Generally not suitable for viewers under 14 years
●
18+ – Generally not suitable for viewers under 18 years
Blocking content with a particular rating also blocks content with a
higher rating, and unblocking content with a particular rating also
unblocks movies with a lower rating.
To block programs based on AGVOT ratings:
From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental
1
controls, and then enter your parental control PIN.
In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV tuner > Canadian
2
English ratings.
Select the rating level you want to block. You need only select
3
one rating level, and all higher levels are automatically blocked.
Blocking based on Canadian French ratings
Canadian-French language programs that are broadcast in Canada
are rated by the Regie du cinema du Quebec. TV broadcast signals
carry rating data that enables parental controls to block shows that
parents don’t want others to view based on content containing
violence, language, sex, or nudity. The ratings are:
●
G – Generally suitable for all age groups
●
8+ – Viewers 8 years and older
●
13+ – Viewers 13 years and older
●
16+ – Viewers 16 years and older
●
18+ – Adults only
Blocking content with a particular rating also blocks content with a
higher rating, and unblocking content with a particular rating also
unblocks movies with a lower rating.
To block programs based on Canadian-French ratings:
From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental
1
controls, and then enter your parental control PIN.
In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV tuner > Canadian
2
French ratings.
Select the rating level you want to block. You need only select
3
one rating level, and all higher levels are automatically blocked.
Blocking unrated programs
Some broadcast TV shows and movies do not have an assigned
rating, and are considered to be “Unrated”. Whether or not such
programs contain content that is objectionable to you cannot be
determined. However, you can choose to block such programs.
To block all unrated broadcasts:
From the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > Parental
1
controls, and then enter your parental control PIN.
In the Parental controls screen, navigate to TV tuner > Block all
2
unrated programs.
Highlight Unrated programs and press OK. When blocking is
3
enabled, the adjacent padlock icon changes from unlocked to
locked.
Tip(s)
●
Blocking programs that have not been assigned a rating does not
block programs that specifically have been assigned a US TV rating
of “None” (for example a broadcast of a local town council
meeting). Programs that do not have an assigned rating display
Rating NA (for “not applicable,” meaning a rating is not needed).
●
In the absence of other ratings for a program, the parental controls
do not consider the MPAA US movie rating N/A (MPAA rating not
applicable to this content) and NR (applicable content not rated
by the MPAA) to be ratings. In these cases, the TV handles the
program as though it is unrated, blocking the program if Unrated
programs blocking is enabled.

What happens when a TV show is blocked?
After you’ve set up parental controls, TV shows and movies
can be blocked:
●
When you change channels and the new channel is playing a
program whose rating exceeds your settings.
●
When a new show comes on the channel you are watching and its
rating exceeds your settings.
When a program is blocked by parental control settings, the TV
displays a blocked message:
Whenever this blocked message appears, both the video and audio
of the show are blocked, as well as program data that would normally
appear in the area at the bottom of the screen.
To watch the blocked program, you need to know the PIN code
defined when you enabled parental controls, as explained in Creating
a parental control PINL p.49.
Press OK to select Unblock and display a PIN pad.

public places, may require you to read and agree to terms, enter a code, or
provide identifying information before letting you connect to the Internet.
For more information, see Using your TV in a dorm room L p. 34.
Changing ZIP Code
Only in connected mode, your TV needs to know your ZIP Code so
that it can display the correct channels and program guide
information. It attempts to determine your ZIP Code by using
information from your Internet connection; however, the information
available from this source is not always accurate. To ensure you have
the most accurate program guide information, use the ZIP Code
option to enter your correct ZIP Code.

Controlling other devices through CEC
Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) enables your TV and other CECcompatible home entertainment devices to control one another in
various ways. First, the CEC-compatible devices must “discover” one
another and report their capabilities. After this, one device can control
another according to the features you enable. For example, playing
a disc on a Blu-ray™ player could switch the TV to the Blu-ray™ player’s
input. Or, powering off the TV could also power off the Blu-ray™ player
and the home theater receiver.
Discover connected CEC devices
To discover CEC devices:
Make sure that your CEC-compatible devices are connected to
1
the TV with a suitable High Speed HDMI® Cable that supports
HDMI® ARC and CEC control.
Turn on each device and make sure all devices are CEC enabled.
2
Tip(s)
●
Some manufacturers have their own branded names for CEC
functionality, so you might need to read the product
documentation to correctly identify the CEC features of the
device.
On the TV’s Home screen menu, navigate to Settings
3
Control other devices (CEC) and then select Search for CEC
devices. Press OK to repeat the discovery process, if necessary.
When finished, the TV displays a list of CEC devices that are
connected to each HDMI® input, as well as any devices that had
previously been connected. The TV remembers the names of multiple
CEC devices even when they are no longer connected. If the list is
longer than the allowed space, press A to see a complete list in a
scrollable window.
Enable HDMI ® ARC
HDMI® ARC is the audio return channel that is available on one of the
TV’s HDMI® ports. The audio return channel enables you to send a
Dolby Audio™ signal back to a home theater receiver that is also
sending an audio and video signal into the TV. Using HDMI® ARC
reduces the number of cables needed and optionally lets you control
the volume and mute state of the receiver by enabling system audio
control.
HDMI® ARC is disabled by default.To enable or disable system audio
control, in the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > System >
Control other devices (CEC) and highlight System audio control. Press
OK to enable or disable the feature.
Note(s)
●
Enabling HDMI ARC also enables System audio control. After enabling
HDMI ARC, you can disable System audio control if you prefer.

Enable system audio control
System audio control enables the TV remote to change the volume
and mute state of an amplifier or sound bar connected through
HDMI®, and to display the external device’s volume and mute status
in the TV’s on-screen display.
The TV automatically turns off its internal speakers and sends volume
and mute control signals to an external amplifier when all of the
following are true:
●
System audio control is enabled on the TV.
●
The TV is connected to a CEC-compatible amplifier, it is powered
on, and CEC discoverability is enabled.
●
The CEC-compatible amplifier’s HDMI® ARC connector is
connected to the TV’s HDMI ARC connector with a suitable HDMI
cable.
When the CEC-compatible amplifier is off, the TV automatically turns
on its speakers (unless you have turned them off as described in
Turning off the TV speakers for home theater useL p.55) and
resumes local control of volume and mute state.
To enable or disable system audio control, in the Home screen menu,

example, pressing Play on your Blu-ray™ player switches the TV to
the Blu-ray™ input.
1-touch play is disabled by default. To enable 1-touch play, in the
Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > System > Control otherdevices (CEC) and highlight 1-touch play. Press OK to enable or
disable the feature.
Enable system standby
The system standby feature causes other devices to power off when
you power off your TV. Depending on the CEC System Standby
implementation, it also might enable connected devices to power off
your TV when you power off the device.
System standby is disabled by default. To enable system standby, in
the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > System > Controlother devices (CEC) and highlight System standby. Press OK to

Getting system updates
If your TV is operating in connected mode, it will automatically get
updates from time to time. You don’t need to do anything. But if you
are aware that an update is available and you don’t want to wait until
the TV updates itself, you can manually check for updates.
If your TV is operating in non-connected mode, you can still get
updates by using a USB flash drive.
You can download an updated User Guide that matches your Roku
TV software version from the Roku web site at:
www.roku.com/support
To determine your current Roku TV software version, go to Settings
System > About, and then press OK or navigate to the right.
Checking for updates on a connected TV

updates as often as you want.
To check for updates, navigate to Settings > System > Systemupdate, and then select Check now. The TV responds either with a
message saying that your TV is up to date, or with a message saying
that an update is available.
Follow the instructions on the screen to install the system update.
Note(s)
●
Sometimes system updates install new system software, and other times
they install new features for streaming channels. Therefore, you won’t
always see a change in the behavior of your TV after a system update.
Getting updates on a non-connected TV
If your TV is not connected to the Internet, you can still get system
updates by using a USB flash drive and a computer with an Internet
connection.
To get a system update, navigate to Settings > System > Systemupdate:
>
The System update screen on a non-connected TV gives you the
opportunity to connect your TV to the Internet to automatically
receive updates. We recommend this option if it is possible in your
situation. To proceed, select Connect to the Internet and follow the
instructions in What if I didn’t connect my TV? L p. 23.
Otherwise, if you can’t connect to the Internet, select I can’t connect,
and then follow the instructions on the screen. Here’s a summary:
On an Internet-connected computer, go to the web site
1
displayed on the System update screen.
On the USB Update web page, select the correct brand and
2
model, and then click Next.
Click Download Software, and then save the file to the root folder
3
of a standard USB flash drive.

Any normal USB flash drive will work, provided it has a FAT-16 or
FAT-32 file system format. (This is the default for most flash
drives.)
The size of the download is small − usually less than 100 MB −
and so will fit on most any size flash drive you might have.
When the download finishes, take the USB flash drive to the TV
4
and plug it into the USB port. When you do, the TV validates the
files on the flash drive and displays a 12-digit code.
Write down the code and the web address, and take this
5
information back to your Internet-connected computer.
On the 12-digit code page, enter the code your TV displayed, and
6
then click Next.
On the 6-digit code page, write down the 6-digit code that
7
appears, and then take it back to your TV.
12- and 6-digit codes
The USB update process uses a pair of codes to validate that you
are authorized to install an update, and to ensure you are not
attempting to install an old, unsupported version of the system
software.
Using the TV remote, select Next to move to the next screen, and
8
then use the on-screen keyboard to enter the 6-digit code. When
finished, select OK. The system update begins. Do not remove
the USB flash drive until the TV restarts.

END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT (FOR ROKU TV)
IMPORTANT: READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY
BEFORE YOU USE A ROKU TV. ALSO REVIEW THE
IMPORTANT PRODUCT INFORMATION THAT MAY HAVE
BEEN PROVIDED WITH YOUR ROKU TV.
Overview
This End User License Agreement (“EULA”) between you and Roku,
Inc. (“Roku”) governs the use of: (a) your television which uses the
Roku platform to play digital content over the Internet (“Television”),
and (b) any firmware and software that have been pre-installed on
the Television and the firmware and software updates Roku provides
to you for the Television (collectively, the “Software”). By linking the
Television to your account on Roku’s website (“Roku Account”) or
using the Television, you are agreeing to this EULA. If you are a
resident of the European Economic Area, by agreeing to this EULA,
you expressly agree to waive your right to withdraw.
If you do not agree to this EULA, you do not have the right to use the
Television or the Software. If you are within the allowable time period
for returns under the applicable return policy, you may return the
Television to your seller for a refund, subject to the terms of such
return policy. You should perform a factory reset before you return it
to erase data that may be stored on the Television. For instructions
on how to reset your Television, please visit www.roku.com/support.
In this EULA, “Channel” means an application in the Roku Channel
Store; “Content” means movies, television shows, music and other
audio and visual materials and entertainment; “Content Provider”
means any provider of Content; and “Roku Channel Store” means the
storefront of applications provided by Roku via the Television’s onscreen menu.
62 .English
Changes to This EULA
Roku may amend this EULA at any time in its discretion. Such
amendments shall be effective immediately upon posting of the
amended EULA on Roku’s website or via the Television or your Roku
Account, whichever occurs first. If you have a Roku Account that is
linked to your Television, then in its option, Roku may also notify you
of the amended EULA by sending a notice to the last email address
you have provided to Roku. You agree to provide accurate and
complete information if and when you set up your Roku Account, and
you agree to promptly update your account information (including
contact information) to keep it accurate and complete. You can do
this at any time by signing in to your Roku Account. Following such
posting or notice by any of the methods described above, continued
use of your Television or Roku Account means you accept and agree
to the amended EULA. If you do not agree to the amended EULA,
Roku may not be able to provide updates, upgrades or
enhancements to your Television, and you may not be able to
continue using your Television or Roku Account.
Permitted Use and Restrictions
The Television and the Software are for personal, non-commercial
use only. Copying or redistribution of any Content delivered via the
Television is strictly prohibited and we may prevent or restrict you
from copying or re-distributing any elements of the Software or
Content using digital rights management or other technologies. The
Television and the Software are for use only in those countries where
the manufacturer of your Television has authorized its sale. If you are
using the Television and the Software outside of these countries, the
rights granted under this EULA do not apply. Some of the Content
Providers use technologies to verify your geographic location, and
you may not be able to use the Television or the Software to access
any Content outside of the country or location authorized by Roku or
the Content Provider. Except as expressly provided under this EULA,
you do not acquire any intellectual property or other proprietary rights
in or to the Television, the Software or the Content, including any rights
in patents, inventions, improvements, designs, trademarks, database
rights or copyrights, nor do you acquire any rights in any confidential
information or trade-secrets. All rights not expressly granted to you in
this EULA are reserved by Roku or its applicable licensors. You may
not remove, obscure, alter or conceal any trademark, logo, copyright
or other proprietary notice in or on any Television, Software or
Content.
The Software is proprietary to Roku or its third party licensors and may
be used only with the Television. Subject to this EULA and, where
appropriate, the applicable third party licenses, you have a nonexclusive, non-transferable license to run the Software and any
updated versions provided to you by Roku, only in and as
incorporated in the Television. This is a license and not a sale. You
may not (a) copy, assign, sublicense, lease, sell or rent the Software,
(b) distribute or otherwise transfer the Software except as
incorporated in the Television, provided that, you do not retain any
copies of the Software and the recipient reads and agrees to this EULA
(including all amendments); (c) modify, adapt, translate, or create
derivative works of the Software (except only to the extent any of the
foregoing restriction is prohibited by applicable law or as may be
permitted by the license terms governing any Separately Licensed
Code included with the Software); (d) decompile, disassemble,
reverse engineer or otherwise derive source code from the Software,
except to the extent such actions cannot be prohibited under
applicable law because they are essential to achieve inter-operability
of the Software with another software program, and provided that the
information obtained by you during such activities is (i) used only to
achieve such inter-operability; (ii) not disclosed without Roku’s prior
written consent; and (iii) not used to create any software that is
substantially similar to the Software; (e) defeat, bypass, circumvent or
interfere with any security mechanism or access control measures, or
(f) have any of the foregoing done for you by a third party. This license
does not include the right to receive Software upgrades or updates.
Your right to use the Television and the Software will immediately
terminate upon your breach of this EULA.
Software Updates
IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, ROKU MAY PROVIDE UPDATES TO YOUR
TELEVISION VIA THE INTERNET, INCLUDING BUG FIXES AND
UPDATES, CHANGES IN THE USER INTERFACE OR HOW YOU
ACCESS CONTENT, AND OTHER CHANGES THAT MAY ADD, ALTER
OR REMOVE FUNCTIONALITIES AND FEATURES. YOU
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THESE UPDATES: (A) MAY HAPPEN
AUTOMATICALLY IN THE BACKGROUND AT ANY TIME (AND THAT
THEY CANNOT BE DISABLED BY YOU); AND (B) WILL REQUIRE AN
INTERNET CONNECTION AND YOU MAY INCUR ADDITIONAL DATA
CHARGES FROM THE PROVIDER OF THE INTERNECT CONNECTION.
YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THESE UPDATES ARE NECESSARY TO
MAINTAIN COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER UPDATES TO ROKU’S
PRODUCTS OR SERVICES AND MAY BE REQUIRED FOR SECURITY
REASONS. BY USING THE TELEVISION, YOU HEREBY AGREE TO
RECEIVE SUCH UPDATES.
Separately Licensed Code
Certain software components of the Software are provided under
separate third party license terms (“Separately Licensed Code”) and
your right to use such components is governed by such license terms.
Please visit
go.roku.com/seperatelylicensedcode for more information.
Voice Search
If downloaded to your phone or mobile device, the Roku mobile app
allows you to use your voice to search for content on your Television
using voice search. When you choose to use voice search, you agree
that Roku and/or a third party vendor contracted by Roku have your
consent to record, process and store your voice inputs (e.g., a
recording and the interpretation of what was said), and use such voice
inputs with other information about your Television (e.g., device
identifier) to provide services related to voice search to you, to
improve the accuracy and quality of the service, and as described in
Roku’s Privacy Policy. To learn more about voice search, visit the FAQ
pages of Roku’s website at www.roku.com/support.

NO WARRANTY FROM ROKU; Limitation of LIABILITY
YOUR warranty with respect to the Television is provided by THE
TELEVISION’S MANUFACTURER, and not by Roku. ROKU OFFERS
NO WARRANTY TO YOU UNDER THIS EULA. WITHOUT LIMITING THE
GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING DISCLAIMER, TO THE MAXIMUM
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:
(A) THE SEPARATELY LICENSED CODE AND THE SOFTWARE ARE
PROVIDED “AS IS”, WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. ROKU DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT. ROKU DOES NOT GUARANTEE, REPRESENT,
OR WARRANT THAT THE TELEVISION, THE SEPARATELY
LICENSED CODE AND THE SOFTWARE WILL BE: (I) SECURE,
VIRUS-FREE OR ERROR-FREE, OR (II) FREE FROM ATTACK OR
SECURITY INTRUSION.
IN NO EVENT SHALL ROKU, ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS OR
(B)
EMPLOYEES BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR PERSONAL INJURY OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL,
EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF ANY TELEVISION,
THE SEPARATELY LICENSED CODE, THE SOFTWARE, OR
YOUR USE THEREOF; AND
(C) YOU AGREE THAT (I) THE TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY OF
ROKU, ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES UNDER
THIS EULA, INCLUDING LIABIILTY RELATING TO ALL
TELEVISIONS LINKED TO YOUR ROKU ACCOUNT, AND THE
SEPARATELY LICENSED CODE AND THE SOFTWARE IN SUCH
TELEVISIONS, AND YOUR USE THEREOF, SHALL NOT EXCEED
THE AMOUNT SET FORTH IN THE ROKU ACCOUNT TERMS
AND CONDITIONS YOU AGREED TO FOR YOUR ROKU
ACCOUNT, AND (II) ROKU, ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND
EMPLOYEES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU UNDER THIS
EULA FOR ANY DIRECT DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF, OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THE TELEVISION. THE FOREGOING
LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY EVEN IF THE REMEDY PROVIDED
HEREIN FAILS ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE AND EVEN IF ROKU,
ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS OR EMPLOYEES HAVE BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LIABILITY.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW EXCLUSIONS OF CERTAIN
WARRANTIES OR LIMITATOINS OF LIABILITY FOR CERTAIN TYPES
OF DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS IN THIS
SECTION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS OF
USE SHALL AFFECT ANY NON-WAIVABLE STATUTORY RIGHTS THAT
APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT
VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION.
Export Controls
You agree not to download any Content or Software, nor otherwise
export or re-export any Television or the Software into (or to a national
or resident of) Cuba, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Iran, Syria or any other
country as to which the United States or your country has embargoed
goods, or to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department's List of
Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Commerce Department's
Table of Denial Orders or on similar restricted lists published by your
government from time to time. By using any Television or the
Software, you are representing and warranting that you are not
located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any such
country or on any such list.
Choice of Law; Dispute Resolution
A. If you are a consumer and a resident in any country in the
European Economic Area where the sale of the Television is
expressly authorized by its manufacturer, this EULA does not
apply to you.
B. In all other cases, including if you are a resident of the United
States (and its possessions and territories) or Canada, you agree
that this EULA shall be governed by the laws of the State of
California without regard to any conflict of laws principles that
may provide the application of the law of another jurisdiction;
and:
1. You and Roku agree to be bound by the procedures set forth
below to resolve any and all claims between you and Roku
arising out of or relating to any aspect of this EULA, whether
based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any
other legal theory, including but not limited to, claims between
you and Roku related to the Television and the Software. Each
such claim is referred to individually as “Claim” and collectively
as “Claims”.
2. YOU AND ROKU AGREE THAT, EXCEPT FOR THE CLAIMS
IDENTIFIED IN PARAGRAPH 4 OF THIS SECTION BELOW,
ANY AND ALL CLAIMS BETWEEN YOU AND ROKU SHALL
BE FINALLY SETTLED BY BINDING ARBITRATION.
The arbitration shall take place in Santa Clara County,
California and shall be administered by the American
Arbitration Association (“AAA”) pursuant to the AAA’s thencurrent rules, including (if applicable) the AAA’s
Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes.
Please be aware there is no judge or jury in arbitration.
Arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than the
rules applicable in court, and review of the arbitrator’s
decision by a court is limited. YOU AND ROKU FURTHER
AGREE THAT EACH OF YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST
THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS
A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED
CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING.
THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN
MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIM AND MAY NOT
PRESIDE OVER ANY CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE
OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY
AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE OR
DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS
AND MAY NOT AWARD ANY FORM OF CONSOLIDATED,
REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS-WIDE RELIEF.
Notwithstanding any provision in these terms to the contrary,
if the class-action waiver in this provision is deemed invalid or
unenforceable, or if an arbitration is allowed to proceed on a
class basis, then neither you nor Roku are entitled to arbitrate
the Claims. This arbitration provision is subject to the Federal
Arbitration Act. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on you
and Roku, and may be entered in any court of competent
jurisdiction.
3. Information on AAA (American Arbitration Association) and
how arbitration is initiated can be found at www.adr.org or by
calling 800-778-7879. For Claims between You and Roku of
$75,000 or less, you will be responsible for the initial
arbitration filing fee, up to the amount of the initial filing fee if
you were to initiate a lawsuit against Roku based on such
Claims in court. If the arbitrator finds such Claims to be nonfrivolous, Roku will pay any difference in such filing fees plus
the arbitrator fees. For Claims between You and Roku in
excess of $75,000, if you are able to demonstrate that the
costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs
of litigation, Roku will pay as much of your actual filing fees
and the arbitrator fees for the arbitration as the arbitrator
deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being costprohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation.
4. This agreement to arbitrate does not apply to any Claim (a) in
which a party is attempting to protect its intellectual property
rights (such as its patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, or
moral rights, but not including its privacy or publicity rights), or
(b) that may be brought in small-claims court.
5. If the agreement to arbitrate in this provision is found to be
invalid, unenforceable or inapplicable to a given Claim
between You and Roku, then any and all proceedings to
resolve such Claim must be brought exclusively in a federal
court of competent jurisdiction in the Northern District of
California or in a state court in Santa Clara County, California.
You hereby irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction
and venue of such courts.
6. 30-Day Right to Opt Out : You have the right to opt out of this
agreement to arbitrate by sending a written notice of your
decision to opt out to the following address: Legal
Department, Roku, Inc., 150 Winchester Circle, Los Gatos, CA
95032, USA; provided that, such notice must be postmarked
on or before the 30th day after the first to occur of the
following events if you do not already have a Roku Account:
(a) the date of purchase of Your Television, or (b) the date you
create your Roku Account. If you have an existing Roku
Account, all devices you choose to link to your Roku Account,
and all services provided by Roku which are accessed using
these devices, will be subject to this agreement to arbitrate.
Your notice should include your full name, your current postal
address, telephone number and email address, the product
name and serial number for Your Television, and a copy of the
original proof of purchase for your Television. If you timely
send a notice in compliance with this paragraph 6, the
agreement to arbitrate will not apply to either you or Roku. If
you do not timely send this notice, then you agree to be
bound by this agreement to arbitrate.
7. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the
contrary, you agree that, if Roku seeks to delete or materially
modify the agreement to arbitrate described herein, any such
deletion or modification will not apply to any individual Claim
of which you have notified Roku prior to such modification.
Miscellaneous
Roku may transfer its rights and obligations under this EULA to another
organization. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations
under this EULA to another person if Roku agrees in writing. This EULA
is between you and Roku. No other person shall have any rights to
enforce these terms. Each of the paragraphs of this EULA operates
separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them
are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and
effect. If Roku fails to insist that you perform any of your obligations
under this EULA, or if Roku does not enforce its rights against you, or
if Roku delays in doing so, that will not mean that Roku has waived its
rights against you, or that you do not have to comply with those
obligations. If Roku does waive a default by you, Roku will only do so
in writing, but that will not mean that Roku will automatically waive
any later default by you.
Contact Information
If you wish to contact Roku, please send your correspondence by mail
to Roku, Inc., 150 Winchester Circle, Los Gatos, CA 95032 USA, or by
email to customerservice@roku.com.
