power cord and plugging it again.
• If a “No Signal” message appears on screen , the HDMI device isn’t
responding. Contact the manufacturer of the HDMI device for
further assistance.
• If you have black bars on each side of your picture (which means
the TV can not display a full-screen image), the device you
connected might have a switch or a menu option allowing you to
change the picture quality output that will fix this. Choose either
720p or 1080i.
The Remote control doesn’t work.

• If the rating limits don’t work, you must lock the settings. Go to the
Main Menu (press MENU on your remote), select PARENTAL to
check the settings.
What else can I do?
If you’ve been through the Troubleshooting section and nothing has
fixed your problem, try rebooting your TV. Note that after a reboot, you
may need to run your TV through the setup process again. To reboot,
unplug the power cord from the wall outlet or power strip. Keep your
TV unplugged for about 5 minutes. Then plug in the TV and turn it on.
See if the problem is fixed. If the problem remains, then please visit the
Customer Support Menu at www.rca.com or updated FAQs or contact
RCA Customer Support at the support number provided in your
Warranty card.

Note:
A. The wall mount is not contained in the accessories sold with
television. We only provide the installing specifications but not the wall
mount itself. If you need the mount, please consult with the local dealer
for a VESA wall mount.
B. We strongly suggest to set the wall mount with equipments of
specification we ordered. If not, inappropriate installing may cause
damage to device or people.

walls and plasterboard.
4. If spare parts of different specifications (such as screws) are used
during mounting, consult with qualified professionals to make sure
these parts are safe and effective.

in keeping with the installing rules. Otherwise there may exist some
potential problems.

voltage wires should be kept far away from the apparatus too. Or
else, it may cause creepage, electric shock or bad resonance.

or more of the following content themes: crude indecent language (L),
explicit sexual activity (S), or graphic violence (V).
TV-14 (Parents Strongly Cautioned):

are cautioned against letting children under the age of 14 watch
unattended. This program contains one or more of the following
content themes: intensely suggestive dialogue (D), strong coarse
language (L), intense sexual situations (S), or intense violence (V).
Canadian English V-Chip Rating System
18+ (Adult):
Programming intended for adults 18 and older. It may
contain elements of violence, language, and sexual content which
could make it unsuitable for viewers under 18. Violence Guidelines:
May contain violence integral to the development of the plot, character
or theme, intended for adult audiences. Other Content Guidelines: May
contain graphic language and explicit portrayals of nudity and/or sex.
Canadian French V-Chip Rating System
18+ (Adult):
Programming is for adults only. This program contains
sustained violence or extremely violent scenes.
TV-PG (Parental Guidance Suggested) :
Contains material that
parents may find unsuitable for younger children. Many parents may
want to watch it with their younger children. The program contains one
or more of the following content themes: some suggestive dialogue (D),
infrequent coarse language (L), some sexual situations (S), or moderate
violence (V).
TV-G (Parental Audience):
Most parents would find this program
suitable for all ages. It contains little or no sexual dialogue (D) or
situations (S), no strong language (L), and little or no violence (V).
C8+ (Children 8 and older):
Programming generally considered
acceptable for children 8 years and over to watch on their own.
Violence Guidelines: Violence will not be portrayed as the preferred,
acceptable, or only way to resolve conflict or encourage children to
imitate dangerous acts which they may see on television. Any realistic
depictions of violence will be infrequent, discreet, of low intensity and
will show the consequences of the acts. Other Content Guidelines:
There will be no profanity, nudity or sexual content.
14+ (Viewer 14 and over):
Programming contains themes or contents
which may not be suitable for viewers under the age of 14. Parents are
strongly cautioned to exercise discretion in permitting viewing by
pre-teens and early teens. Violence Guidelines: May contain intense
scenes of violence. Could deal with mature themes and societal issues
in a realistic fashion. Other Content Guidelines: May contain scenes of
nudity and/or sexual activity. There could be frequent use of profanity.
PG (Parental Guidance):
Programming intended for a general
audience but which may not be suitable for younger children (under the
age of 8). Parents may consider some content inappropriate for
unsupervised viewing by children aged 8-13. Violence Guidelines:
Depictions of conflict and/or aggression will be limited and moderate;
may include physical, fantasy, or supernatural violence. Other Content
Guidelines: May contain infrequent mild profanity, or mildly suggestive
language. Could also contain brief scenes of nudity.
G (General Audience):
Programming considered acceptable for all
ages groups. While not designed specifically for children, it is
understood younger viewers may be part of the audience. Violence
Guidelines: Will contain very little violence, either physical or verbal or
emotional. Will be sensitive to themes which could frighten a younger
child, will not depict realistic scenes of violence which minimize or gloss
over the effects of violent acts. Other Content Guidelines: There may be
some inoffensive slang, no rofanity and no nudity.
C (Children):
Programming intended for children under age of 8.
Violence Guidelines: Careful attention is paid to themes which could
threaten children’s sense of security and well being. There will be no
realistic scenes of violence. Depictions of aggressive behavior will be
infrequent and limited to portrayals that are clearly imaginary, comedic
or unrealistic in nature. Other Content Guidelines: There will be no
offensive language, nudity or sexual content.

Programming is not suitable for those
under age 16. This program contains frequent scenes of violence or
intensely violent scenes.

Programming may not be suitable for
children under the age of 13. This program either contains several
violent scenes or one or more scenes that are violent enough to affect
them. Viewing in the company of an adult is therefore strongly
recommended for children under the age of 13.
8+ (Viewer 8 and over):
Not recommended for young children. This
program is suitable for most audiences, but it contains mild or
occasional violence that could upset young children. Viewing in the
company of an adult is therefore recommended for young children
(under the age of 8) who do not distinguish between reality and
imagination.
G (General Audience):
This program is suitable for audiences of all
ages. It contains no violence, or any violence that it does contain is
either minimal or is presented in a humorous manner, as a caricature,
or in an unrealistic way.
