Setup Instructions

  1. STEP 1: Connect to TV

    Plug your streaming player into an HDMI® port on your TV. If the port doesn't fit, you can order a free HDMI extender cable at my.roku.com/HDMI.

    Alternatively, use the included USB power cable to connect to the USB port on your TV. Note: Not all TV USB ports provide sufficient power.

  2. STEP 2: Connect to power

    For the best streaming experience, use the included USB power cable and power adapter to connect your streaming player to a wall outlet.

    Warning: If your streaming player shows a red light, the TV's USB port is not providing enough power. Use the included power adapter instead. For help, visit go.roku.com/lowpower.

  3. STEP 3: Power on TV and select input

    Use your TV remote to power on your TV and select the input source used for your streaming player. For assistance with selecting the correct input, visit go.roku.com/selectinput.

  4. STEP 4: Insert batteries

    On the back of the remote, slide open the battery cover. Insert the included batteries, ensuring the negative (-) ends go in first. Your remote should pair automatically with your streaming player. For help pairing your remote, visit go.roku.com/remotehelp.
