Roku® Streaming Player 

Important Product Information

Introduction

The Roku streaming player which accompanies 

this Important Product Information (“Player”) 

allows you to stream online entertainment to your 

TV. A Roku account is required to activate your 

Player.  When you sign up for a Roku account, you 

will be asked to provide your contact information 

and a payment method so that you can easily rent 

movies or sign-up for additional services.  Your 

authorization is required for any such charges.  

There are no equipment rental fees for owning 

a Player. However, a paid subscription or other 

form of payment may be required to access 

some channels or content.  Channel availability is 

subject to change and varies by country. Check 

with each channel provider for specific bandwidth 

requirements to stream 720p, 1080p HD and 4K (if 

your Player supports 4K) content.

Safety Precautions

The Player has been designed with the highest 

concern for safety. However, any electrical device, 

if used improperly, has the potential for causing 

fire, electrical shock, property damage or personal 

injury. To help ensure accident-free operation, 

follow these guidelines:

• Observe all warnings, precautions and 

instructions.

• Regularly inspect the AC power adapter for 

damage.

• Stop use, unplug the AC power adapter from 

the electrical outlet and disconnect any other 

cables immediately, if the Player has been 

damaged, cracked or punctured, or if the Player 

functions in an abnormal manner, produces 

unusual sounds or smells or becomes too hot 

to touch.

• For more information on product safety and 

troubleshooting, please go to

Use and Handling

• Do not operate the remote using any vigorous 

or forceful motions or gestures.

• The remote control and the headphones are not 

toys. If your Player comes with a remote control 

and/or headphones, keep them both out of 

reach of children under the age of six.

• The product packaging may include plastic 

bags, cable ties and fasteners. Dispose of 

these properly and keep them out of reach 

of children, as they could present a choking 

hazard.

• Do not touch the Player or connected cables 

during an electrical storm.

• Do not allow liquid, small particles or other 

foreign objects to get into the Player or 

accessories.

• Do not expose the Player or accessories to 

liquid, smoke or steam.

• Do not expose the Player or accessories to high 

temperatures, high humidity or direct sunlight.

• Do not place the Player or the remote on 

the floor or in a place where they may cause 

someone to trip or stumble.

• Permanent hearing loss may occur if 

the Player or earpieces are used at high 

volume. To prevent possible hearing 

loss, limit the amount of time you use 

the Player or any earpieces at high volume.

• Do place your Player within range of your 

wireless network.

• Do not place your Player in an enclosed cabinet; 

it may interfere with the wireless signal.

• Do not place anything on top of your Player; it 

may cause the Player to overheat.

• Do not drop, crush or disassemble the Player.

• Do not attempt to repair your Player yourself. 

Disassembling the Player may cause damage 

not covered by the warranty.

same manufacturer. Never use damaged batteries.

Disposal of batteries:
