Important Warranty Information Regarding Television Format Viewing

Wide screen format PDP 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 side-bars on nonexpanded 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 PDP Displays that leave subtle, but permanent burned-in ghost images in the PDP picture. To avoid this, vary the programming and images, and primarily display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars.

On PDP 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 PDP aging as a result of format selection and use, as well as burned-in images, are not covered by your Samsung limited warranty.

User Instructions

Screen Image retention

Do not display a still image (such as on a video game) on the plasma display panel for more than several minutes as it can cause screen image retention. This image retention is also known as “screen burn”. To avoid such image retention, refer to page 49 of this manual to reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.

Altitude

The PDP will not operate normally at altitudes above 6500 ft.

Heat on the top of the PDP TV

The top side of the product may be hot after long periods of use as heat dissipates from the panel through the vent hole in the upper part of the product. This is normal and does not indicate any defect or operation failure of the product. However, children should be prevented from touching the upper part of the product.

The product is making a ‘cracking’ noise.

A ‘cracking’ noise may occur when the product contracts or expands due to a change of surrounding environment such as temperature or humidity. This is normal and not a defect of the unit.

Cell Defects

The PDP uses a panel consisting of 1,230,000(SD-level) to 3,150,000(HD-level) pixels which require sophisticated technology to produce. However, there may be few bright or dark pixels on the screen. These pixels will have no impact on the performance of the product.

Avoid operating the TV at temperatures below 5°C(41°F)

A still image displayed too long may cause permanent damage to the PDP Panel.

Watching the PDP TV in 4:3 format for a long period of time may leave traces of borders displayed on the left, right and center of the screen caused by the difference of light emission on the screen. Playing a DVD or a game console may cause similar effect to the screen. Damages caused by the above effect are not covered by the Warranty.

Afterimage on the Screen.

Displaying still images from Video games and PC for longer than a certain period of time may produce partial afterimages. To prevent this effect, reduce the ‘brightness’ and ‘contrast’ when displaying still images for a long time.

Warranty

Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention. Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.

Installation

Be sure to contact an authorized service center when installing your set in a location with heavy dust, high or low temperatures, high humidity, and chemical substances, or where it will be operated for 24 hours continuously such as an airport, train station, etc. Failure to do so may cause serious damage to your set.

Coaxial cable

Optical cable

Digital Audio System

How to Connect

If your audio system has a coaxial digital audio input, connect to the “COAXIAL” output jack

on the TV.

If your audio system has a optical digital audio input, connect to the “OPTICAL“ output jack

on the TV. Be certain to remove the black cover from the optical output before inserting the cable.

If your system has both coaxial and optical digital audio inputs, SAMSUNG recommends

you use the optical digital output on the TV. Do not connect both optical and coaxial cables. This may damage your audio system.

• OPTICAL: converts the electric signal into an optical light signal, and transmits it through glass fibers.

• COAXIAL: The digital audio signal is received through a coaxial copper cable.

Your TV can memorize and store all of the available channels for both “off-air” (antenna) and cable channels. After the available channels are memorized, use the CH and CH buttons to scan through the channels. This eliminates the need to change channels by entering the channel digits. There are three steps for memorizing channels: selecting a broadcast source, memorizing the channels (automatic) and adding and deleting channels (manual).

Selecting a broadcast source

Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select “Auto Program”, then press the ENTER button.

Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select the antenna connection, then press the ENTER button.

• Cable : “Cable” antenna signal.

• Air + Cable : “Air” and “Cable” antenna signals.

• If the antenna is connected to ANT 1 IN (CABLE IN), select “Cable” and if it is connected to ANT 2 IN (AIR IN), select “Air”.

• If both ANT 1 IN and ANT 2 IN are connected, select the “Air + Cable”.

Checking the Digital-Signal Strength

Unlike analog channels, which can vary in reception quality from “snowy” to clear, digital (HDTV) channels have either perfect reception quality or you will not receive them at all. So, unlike analog channels, you cannot fine tune a digital channel. You can, however, adjust your antenna to improve the reception of available digital channels.

Press the MENU button. Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select “Channel”, then press

the ENTER button.

Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select “Signal Strength”, then press the ENTER button.

If the signal strength meter indicates that the signal is weak, physically adjust your antenna to increase the signal strength.

Continue to adjust the antenna until you find the best position with the strongest signal.

How to Set up Your PC Software (Windows only)

The Windows display-settings for a typical computer are shown below. But the actual screens on your PC will probably be different, depending upon your particular version of Windows and your particular video card.
