xx Be sure to use an HDMI cable with a thickness of 14 mm or less.

xx The picture may not display normally (if at all) or the audio may not work if an external device that uses an older version of HDMI mode is connected to the TV. If such a problem occurs, ask the manufacturer of the external device about the HDMI version and, if out of date, request an upgrade.

xx Be sure to purchase a certified HDMI cable. Otherwise, the picture may not display or a connection error may occur.

xx When the receiver (amplifier or DVD home theater) is set to on, you can hear sound output from the TV’s optical jack. When the TV is receiving a DTV signal, the TV will send 5.1 CH sound to the amplifier or DVD home theater. When the source is a digital component such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB (Set-Top-Box) satellite receiver and is connected to the TV via HDMI, only 2 CH audio will be heard from the amplifier or DVD home theater. If you want to hear 5.1 CH audio, connect the digital audio out jack from your DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB satellite receiver directly to an amplifier or home theater.

AUDIO OUT: Connects to the audio input jacks on your amplifier / DVD home theater. xx When connecting, use the appropriate connector.

NOTE

xx V-Chip is not available in HDMI, Component or PC mode.

xx The default PIN number of a new TV set is “0-0-0-0”.

xx Allow All: Press to unlock all TV ratings. xx Block All: Press to lock all TV ratings.

V-Chip Lock (Off / On): You can block rated TV Programs.

TV Parental Guidelines: You can block TV programs depending on their rating. This function allows you to control what your children are watching.

/TV-14: Viewers 14 and over / TV-MA: Mature audience

––ALL: Lock all TV ratings. / FV: Fantasy violence /

V: Violence / S: Sexual situation / L: Adult Language / D: Sexually Suggestive Dialog

The V-Chip will automatically block certain

categories dealing with more sensitive material. For example, if you block the TV-Y category, then TV-Y7 will automatically be blocked. Similarly, if you block the TV-G category, then all the categories in the young adult group will be blocked (TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA). The sub-ratings (D, L, S, V) work similarly. So, if you block the L sub-rating in TV-PG, then the L sub-ratings in TV-14 and TV-MA will automatically be blocked.

MPAA Rating: You can block movies depending on their MPAA rating. The Motion Picture Association of America(MPAA) has implemented a rating system that provides parents or guardians with advanced information on which films are appropriate for children.

––G: General audience (no restrictions). / PG: Parental guidance suggested. / PG-13: Parents strongly cautioned. / R: Restricted. Children under 17 should be accompanied by an adult. / NC-17: No children under age 17. / X: Adults only. / NR: Not rated.

––C: Programming intended for children under age 8. / C8+: Programming generally considered acceptable for children 8 years and over to watch on their own.

/G: General programming, suitable for all audiences.

/PG: Parental Guidance. / 14+: Programming contains themes or content which may not be suitable for viewers under the age of 14. / 18+: Adult programming.

The V-Chip will automatically block any

category that deals with more sensitive material. For example, if you block the G category, then PG, 14+ and 18+ will automatically be blocked.

Canadian French: You can block TV programs depending on their French Canadian rating.

––G: General / 8 ans+: Programming generally considered acceptable for children 8 years and over to watch on their own. / 13 ans+: Programming may not be suitable for children under the age of 13. / 16 ans+: Programming is not suitable for children under the age of 16. / 18 ans+: Programming restricted to adults.

The V-Chip will automatically block any

category that deals with more sensitive material. For example, if you block the 8 ans+ category, then 13 ans+, 16 ans+ and 18 ans+ will automatically be blocked also.

You can set up your TV so that it can access the Internet through your local area network (LAN) using a wired or wireless connection.

¦¦ Connecting to a Wired Network

You can attach your TV to your LAN using cable in three ways:

yy You can attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your TV to an external modem using a Cat 5 cable. See the diagram below.

See the diagram below. Note that the wall outlet is attached to a modem or router elsewhere in your house.

LAN Cable (Not Supplied)

If you have a Dynamic Network, you should use an ADSL modem or router that supports Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Modems and routers that support DHCP automatically provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values your TV needs to access the Internet so you don’t have to enter them manually. Most home networks are Dynamic Networks.

Some networks require a Static IP address. If your network requires a Static IP address, you must enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values manually on your TV’s Cable Setup Screen when you set up the network connection. To get the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP). If you have a Windows computer, you can also get these values through your computer.

You can use ADSL modems that support DHCP if your network requires a Static IP address. ADSL modems that support DHCP also let you use Static IP addresses.

Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter is sold separately and is offered by select retailers, Ecommerce sites and Samsungparts. com. Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter supports the IEEE 802.11A/B/G and N communication protocols. Samsung recommends using IEEE 802.11N. When you play video over a IEEE 802.11B/G connection, the video may not play smoothly.

NOTE

xx You must use the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter” (WIS09ABGN, WIS09ABGN2, WIS10ABGN) to use a wireless network.

xx Samsung’s Wireless LAN Adapter is sold separately. The Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter is offered by select retailers, Ecommerce sites and Samsungparts.com.

xx To use a wireless network, your TV must connect wirelessly to a wireless IP sharer (either a router or a modem). If the wireless IP sharer supports DHCP, your TV can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network.

xx Select a channel for the wireless IP sharer that is not currently being used. If the channel set for the wireless IP sharer is currently being used by another device nearby, this will result in interference and communication failure.

xx If you apply a security system other than the systems listed below, it will not work with the TV.

xx If you select the Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11N mode and set your AP's Security Encryption type to WEP, TKIP or TKIPAES (WPS2Mixed), your Samsung TV will not support the connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification specifications.

xx If your AP supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect to the network via PBC (Push Button Configuration) or PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS will automatically configure the SSID and WPA key in either mode.

xx If your router, modem, or device isn’t certified, it may not connect to the TV via the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter.” xx Connection Methods: You can setup the wireless network connection four ways.

––PBC (WPS)

––Auto Setup (Using the Auto Network Search function)

––Manual Setup

––Ad-Hoc

xx The Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter may not be recognized or work properly when connecting via a USB hub or via a USB extension cable other than the one available from Samsung.

If Your TV Fails to Connect to the Internet

Your TV may not be able to connect to the Internet because your ISP has permanently registered the MAC address (a unique identifying number) of your PC or modem, which it then authenticates each time you connect to the Internet as a way of preventing unauthorized access. As your TV has a different MAC

address, your ISP can not authenticate its MAC address, and your TV can not connect.

To resolve this problem, ask your ISP about the procedures required to connect devices other than a PC (such as your TV) to the Internet.

If your Internet service provider requires an ID or password to connect to the Internet, your TV may not be able to connect to the Internet. If this is the case, you must enter your ID or password when connecting to the Internet.

The internet connection may fail because of a firewall problem. If this is the case, contact your Internet service provider.

If you cannot connect to the Internet even after you have followed the procedures of your Internet service provider, please contact Samsung Electronics.
