In your TV settings, if there is nothing called limited/full range RGB then often it will just be called the "Black Level".

Quote from bug 1668159:

if your device doesn't yet support changing the setting, and your HDMI-connected TV looks a bit wrong then you can probably just change the TV settings:

Picture is too dark/black: Likely problem is that your device is outputting full range and your TV is expecting limited. Change your TV settings to Black level = Normal or High

Picture is washed out (blacks appear grey and whites are dim): Likely problem is that your device is outputting limited range and your TV is configured for full range. Change your TV settings to Black level = Low (which means to treat 16 as full black and 235 as full white).
