Apple TV 4K on non-4K HDTV

Hi,

I just purchased an Apple TV 4K 64GB, but my television does not support 4K display. This is my first Apple TV device and I purchased what was available from Target. My question is how do I adjust the display settings so that I do not damage my television?

From what I understand this device will work on non-4K televisions much in the same way as Roku's devices that support 4K do, but seeing as this is my first Apple TV device and I am waiting on it to be delivered, I was hoping I could get a few pointers from those on the forum who are more familiar with Apple TV 4K that I am as I am intending to test the device over the weekend.

Any advice / suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yeah for a new one. Not a resale.

Apple TV 4th generation 32GB $149

Apple TV 4K 32GB $179 (difference $30)

Apple TV 4K 64GB $199 (difference $50)

You just don't give up, but i'm not going down this road again. You can think what you like and continue this discussion on your own.
