Important Warranty Information Regarding Television Format Viewing
Standard screen format televisions (4:3, the aspect ratio of the screen width to height) are pri­marily designed to view standard format full-motion video. The images displayed on them should primarily be in the standard 4:3 ratio format and constantly moving. Displaying station­ary graphics and images on screen, such as the dark top and bottom letterbox bars (wide screen pictures), should be limited to no more than 15% of the total television viewing per week.
Wide screen format televisions (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 constantly moving. Displaying stationary graphics and images on screen, such as the dark side-bars on non-expanded standard format television video and pro­gramming, should be limited to no more than 15% 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 any stationary images that exceed the above guide-
lines can cause uneven aging of picture tubes (CRTs) that leave subtle, but permanent burned-in ghost images in the television picture. To avoid this, vary the programming and images, and primarily dis­play full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars. On television models that offer
picture sizing features, use these controls to view the different formats as a full screen picture.
Be careful in the selection and duration of television formats used for viewing. Uneven CRT aging as a result of format selection and use, as well as other burned-in images, is not covered by your Samsung limited warranty.

INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION

Connecting VHF and UHF Antennas

If your antenna has a set of leads that look like this, see Antennas with 300-ohm Flat Twin Leads below.
If your antenna has one lead that looks like this, see Antennas with 75-ohm Round Leads on next page.
If you have two antennas, see Separate VHF and UHF Antennas on next page.
Antennas with 300-ohm Flat Twin Leads
If you are using an off-air antenna (such as a roof antenna or rabbit ears) that has 300-ohm twin flat leads, follow the directions below.
1
Place the wires from the twin leads under the screws on the 300-75 ohm adaptor (not supplied). Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws.
2
Plug the adaptor into the VHF/UHF terminal on the bottom of the back panel.
11
INSTALLATION
Antennas with 75-ohm Round Leads
1
Plug the antenna lead into the VHF/UHF terminal on the bot tom of the back panel.
Separate VHF and UHF Antennas
If you have two separate antennas for your TV (one VHF and one UHF), you must combine the two antenna signals before connecting the antennas to the TV. This procedure requires an optional combiner-adaptor (available at most electronics shops).
1
Connect both antenna leads to the combiner.
2
Plug the combiner into the VHF/UHF terminal on the bottom of the rear panel.
Connecting Cable TV
To connect to a cable TV system, follow the instructions below.
Cable without a Cable Box
1
Plug the incoming cable into the VHF/UHF antenna terminal on back of the TV.
Because this TV is cable-ready, you do not need a cable box to view unscrambled cable channels.
12
INSTALLATION
Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles All Channels
1
Find the cable that is con­nected to the ANTENNA OUT terminal on your cable box.
This terminal might be labeled “ANT OUT”, “VHF OUT” or simply, “OUT”.
2
Connect the other end of this cable to the VHF/UHF antenna terminal on the back of the TV.
Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles Some Channels
If your cable box descrambles only some channels (such as premium channels), follow the instructions below. You will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four lengths of coaxial cable. (These items are available at most electronics stores.)
1
Find and disconnect the cable t hat is connected to the ANTENNA IN terminal on your cable box .
2
Connect this cable to a two-way split ter.
3
Connect a coaxial cable between an OUTPUT termi­nal on the splitter and the IN terminal on the cable box.

INSTALLATION

Connecting a VCR

These instructions assume that you have already connected your TV to an antenna or a cable TV system (according to the instructions on pages 11-14). Skip step 1 if you have not yet connected to an antenna or a cable system.
1
Unplug the cable or antenna from the back of the TV.
2
Connect the cable or antenna to the ANTENNA IN terminal on the back of the VCR.
3
