Step 2: Connect the power cord
Plug one end of the power cord into the back of Apple TV and the other end into a
power outlet.
Important: Don’t place anything on top of Apple TV. Objects placed on top may cause
interference with the wireless signal.
Step 3: Turn on your TV and select the input
The first time you use Apple TV, it takes you through a series of steps including
choosing a language, selecting a network, configuring Apple TV to work with your
network if necessary, and connecting to iTunes. See Chapter 2, “Configure.,” on page 17.
Note: If you see just a black screen the first time you use Apple TV, make sure the input
you’ve selected on your TV matches the input you’ve plugged the cables into on your
TV or receiver. If the input matches, you might need to select a screen resolution your
TV supports. See “Problem? No problem.” on page 27 and refer to the documentation
that came with your TV for information about its inputs.
