Hi, I'm Agent Bennett,
and today I'm going to walk you through setting up
an LG OLED Gallery TV.
Here's what you'll need.
First, if you're going to be watching TV
using the built-in tuner,
you'll need an antenna or a coax cable,
along with a cable subscription.
You'll also need the name
of your wireless network and password.
You can use the remote control,
or you can use your smartphone as the remote control.
If you wanna do that, make sure you have your phone.
In this video, I'll be using an LG OLED Gallery TV.
I'll also be using a no-gap wall mount,
since that's one of the cool features
of this LG OLED Gallery TV,
it can be mounted flush against the wall.
So when you're not using it as a TV,
it can display a piece of art.
That's where the name Gallery comes from.
It has a gallery mode built-in.
Start by plugging it in, and then turn it on.
Now, press the Okay button to begin pairing the remote.
Select some of the basics like language,
time zone, and country.
Then press Next.
This screen tells me that Audio Guidance is enabled.
I'll turn mine off for now.
It's time to connect to any external devices,
like a digital antenna, your cable box,
gaming system, Blu-ray player, or even sound system
to your TV.
Since I'm only setting up the TV today, I'll just tap Next.
If you're using a wireless connection,
the next part of the setup
will walk you through the connection process.
Just select the dropdown menu in the middle of the screen
and find your wireless network.
Using the onscreen keyboard,
enter the password and select Enter.
When your TV gets connected select Next.
Here, you'll find all of the Terms and Conditions.
When you've read through them,
and if you agree, select Next.
Now you'll have a few options to look over.
I want my TV to have a lot of functionality,
and do most of it automatically.
So I'm going to choose agree all, and then I'll select More,
and then Agree.
Since my TV isn't paired with any devices,
I'll just choose Next here.
Now you choose how you're planning to watch TV.
Since I'm using an antenna,
I'll select that option and then Next.
Enter your zip code, choose Enter, and then Next.
Now let's talk about the AI functions.
The first is AI Picture Pro.
This feature is pretty impressive.
It automatically recognizes the image quality,
and removes noise,
and optimizes the contrast and saturation,
giving you a crisp high quality picture.
You can select the slide to see a comparison.
And you can do the same thing with the AI Sound Pro.
You can always enable either of these later,
after getting a better feel for your TV.
When you're ready to move on select Next.
Since I'm using an antenna, I'll need to do channel scan,
which looks for frequencies,
creating a list of each available channel,
so I can easily flip between those.
This only applies if you're using an antenna,
or a cable connection without a cable box.
Meaning the coax cable is directly connected
from your wall to the TV.
To begin that process, I'll select Start.
The channel search will take a few minutes.
When it's complete select Done.
On the next screen you'll see some options
for setting up apps.
If there are any that you'd like to set up,
select each one and follow the instructions,
I'll do that later.
So for now, I'll just choose close.
Of course, now it's also the perfect time
to check for any important software updates or new features.
Press the Settings button on the remote,
and then select All Settings.
Then under Support, find Software Update.
If you like, you can also set your TV to update itself
by enabling Allow Automatic Updates.
And that's it, the TV is all set up and ready to watch.
Now, if you'd like to use your smartphone as a remote,
let's talk about that next.
This will really take your experience to the next level.
It's also really helpful when you can't find the TV remote,
or if you're just not in the mood to get up.
To make this work, your phone should be using
the same wireless network as your TV, and to get started
download the LG ThinQ app on your phone,
if you haven't already, and tap Okay to give it permission.
Then decide whether the app can have access
to make and manage phone calls.
You can make video calls through ThinQ,
which is a cool feature, so I'll say Allow.
You'll also have to decide whether the app
can access your location.
I'm going to tap Allow Only While Using the App,
which is what I recommend for most apps.
Sign in with your existing account or create a new one.
When you've signed in tap the plus symbol
to bring up the Connection Guide.
Under the Home Appliances section,
tap TV and your TV should appear
under the list of available devices.
Go ahead and select it.
A number will now appear on your TV screen.
Type this number into your app and tap Okay.
Then hit Link to register your TV
with your LG ThinQ account.
Now, tap Done, and then go to Home.
And you did it.
You just programmed your phone to act as a remote control
for your new TV.
Go ahead and do a little exploring.
From the app you can control things like channels,
volume, and power, pretty cool.
Hopefully this video was helpful.
If it was give it a like.
