Important Warranty Information Regarding Television Format Viewing
See the warranty card for more information on warranty terms.
Wide screen format LED Displays (16:9, the aspect ratio of the screen width to height) are primarily designed to view wide screen format full-motion video. The images displayed on them should primarily be in the wide screen 16:9 ratio format, or expanded to fill the screen if your model offers this feature and the images are constantly moving. Displaying stationary graphics and images on screen, such as the dark sidebars on no expanded standard format television video and programming, should be limited to no more than 5% of the total television viewing per week. Additionally, viewing other stationary images and text such as stock market reports, video game displays, station logos, web sites or computer graphics and patterns, should be limited as described above for all televisions. Displaying stationary images that exceed the above guidelines can cause uneven aging of LED Displays that leave subtle, but permanent burned-in ghost images in the LED picture. To avoid this, vary the programming and images, and primarily display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars. On LED models that offer picture sizing features, use these controls to view different formats as a full screen picture. Be careful in the selection and duration of television formats used for viewing. Uneven LED aging as a result of format selection and use, as well as burned in images, are not covered by your Samsung limited warranty.

Still image warning
Avoid displaying still images (such as jpeg picture files) or still image elements (such as TV channel logos, panorama or 4:3 image format, stock or news bars at screen bottom etc.) on the screen. Constant displaying of still picture can cause ghosting of LED screen, which will affect image quality. To reduce risk of this effect, please follow the recommendations below:
• Avoid displaying the same TV channel for long periods.
• Always try to display a full screen image.
• Reducing brightness and contrast will help to avoid the appearance of after-images.
• Use all TV features designed to reduce image retention and screen burn, refer to proper user manual section for details.
Securing the Installation Space
Keep the required distances between the product and other objects (e.g. walls) to ensure proper ventilation. Failing to do so may result in fire or a problem with the product due to an increase in the internal temperature of the product.
When using a stand or wall-mount, use parts provided by Samsung Electronics only.
If you use parts provided by another manufacturer, it may result in a problem with the product or an injury due to the product falling.
x
The appearance may differ depending on the product.

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.

¦ Connecting to a Wireless Network
To connect your TV to your network wirelessly, you need a wireless router or modem and a Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter (WIS09ABGN, WIS09ABGN2, WIS10ABGN), which you connect to your TV’s back or side panel USB jack. See the illustration below.
To use the SWL (Samsung Wireless Link) function, connect to the USB 1 (HDD) port.
04 Advanced Features
The LAN Port on the Wall
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
You must use the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter” (WIS09ABGN, WIS09ABGN2, WIS10ABGN) to use a wireless
x
network. Samsung’s Wireless LAN Adapter is sold separately. The SAMSUNG Wireless LAN Adapter is offered by select
x
retailers, Ecommerce sites and Samsungparts.com. To use a wireless network, your TV must connect wirelessly to a wireless IP sharer (either a router or a modem). If the
x
wireless IP sharer supports DHCP, your TV can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network. Select a channel for the wireless IP sharer that is not currently being used. If the channel set for the wireless IP sharer
x
is currently being used by another device nearby, this will result in interference and communication failure. If you apply a security system other than the systems listed below, it will not work with the TV.
x
If you select the Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11N mode and set your AP's Security Encryption type to WEP,
x
TKIP or TKIPAES (WPS2Mixed), your Samsung TV will not support the connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification specifications.
If your AP supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect to the network via PBC (Push Button
x
Configuration) or PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS will automatically configure the SSID and WPA key in either mode.
If your router, modem, or device isn’t certified, it may not connect to the TV via the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter.”
x
Connection Methods: You can setup the wireless network connection six ways.
x
– Samsung Auto Configuration - For non-Samsung devices. – PBC (WPS) – Auto Setup (Using the Auto Network Search function) – Manual Setup – SWL (Samsung Wireless Link) - For Samsung devices only. – Ad-Hoc

To connect the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter using the USB right angle adapter, follow these steps:
1. Connect the USB right angle adapter to the Samsung Wireless LAN
Adapter.
2. Connect the other end of the right angle adapter to the USB 1 (HDD)
port.
Network Setup (Samsung Auto Configuration)
The Samsung Auto Configuration function lets you connect your Samsung TV automatically to non-Samsung wireless APs. If your non-Samsung AP does not support Samsung Auto Configuraton, you must connect using one of the other methods: PBC (WPS), auto configuration, or manual configuration.
To use this function, you must set SWL (Samsung Wireless Link) to Off in the TV’s on­screen menu.
You can check for equipment that supports Samsung Auto Configuration on www.samsung.com.
How to set up using Samsung Auto Configuration
1. Place the AP and TV next to each other and turn them
on.
Because AP booting times vary, you may have to wait approximately two minutes for your AP to boot up.
Ensure the LAN cable is connected to the WAN port of the AP during Samsung Auto Configuration. If it is not connected, Samsung Auto Configuration only confirms that the TV is connected to the AP, but does not confirm it is connected to the Internet.
To reconnect the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter using the extension cable, follow these steps:
The Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter should be installed in an
interference-free area in order to avoid interference between the adapter and tuner.
1. Connect the extension cable to the USB 1 (HDD) port.
2. Connect the extension cable and Samsung Wireless LAN
Adapter.
3. Attach the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter to the back of the TV
near the top, using double-sided adhesive tape.
2. After 2 minutes, connect the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter to the TV. When the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter establishes a connection with your TV, a pop-up window appears.
3. As soon as a connection is established, place the AP parallel to the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter and not farther than than 9 and 7/8s inches (25cm) from it.
4. Wait until the connection is automatically established.
If Samsung Auto Configuration does not connect your TV to your AP, a pop-up window appears on the screen notifying you of the failure. If you want to try using Samsung Auto Configuration again, reset the AP, disconnect the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter and then try again from Step 1. You can also choose one of the other connection setup methods: PBC (WPS), auto, or manual.
5. Place the AP in a desired location.
If the AP settings change or you install a new AP, you must perform the Samsung Auto Configuration procedure again, beginning from Step 1.
