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 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 full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars.

On PDP

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.

, viewing other stationary images and text such as stock market reports, video game displays, station logos,

picture. To avoid this, vary the programming and images, and primarily display

models that offer picture sizing features, use these controls to view different formats as a full screen picture.

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 27 of this manual to reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.

Altitude

The PDP can only operate normally at heights under 6500ft.

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 a 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 effects to the screen. Damages caused by the above effect are not covered by the Warranty.

After-images on the Screen.

Displaying still images from Video games and PC for longer than a certain period of time may produce partial after-images.

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.

Connections

Connecting VHF and UHF Antennas

If your antenna has a set of leads that look like this, see “Antennas with 300 Ω Flat Twin Leads” below.

If your antenna has one lead that looks like this, see “Antennas with 75 Ω Round Leads”. If you have two antennas, see “Separate VHF and UHF Antennas”.

Antennas with 300 Ω Flat Twin Leads

If you are using an off-air antenna (such as a roof antenna or “rabbit ears”) that has 300 Ω twin flat leads, follow the directions below.

1 Place the wires from the twin leads under the screws on a 300-75 Ω adapter (not supplied).

Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws.

2 Plug the adaptor into the ANT 1 IN (AIR) or ANT 2 IN (CABLE) terminal on the back of the TV.

ANT 1 IN (AIR)

Antennas with 75 Ω Round Leads

Plug the antenna lead into the ANT 1 IN (AIR) or ANT 2 IN (CABLE) terminal on the back of the TV.

ANT 1 IN (AIR)

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.

Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles All Channels

1 Find the cable that is connected to the ANT 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 ANT 2 IN (CABLE) 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 Antenna cable. (These items are available at most electronics stores.)

1 Find and disconnect the cable that is

What is HDMI?

• HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is a interface that enables the transmission of digital audio and video signals using a single cable.

• The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size, has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed, and supports multi-channel digital audio.

Connecting a Digital Audio System

The rear panel jacks on your TV make it easy to connect a Digital Audio System to your TV.

1 Connect an Optical Cable

between the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack on the TV and the Digital Audio Input (OPTICAL) jack on the Digital Audio System.

When a Digital Audio System is connected to the “DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL)” terminal: Decrease the gain (volume) of the TV, and adjust the volume level with the system’s volume control.

What is OPTICAL?

• An optical cable converts an electric signal into an optical light signal, and transmits it through glass fibers. S/PDIF is a transmission system of digital audio in the form of a light wave that uses a glass conductor.

5.1CH audio is possible when the TV is connected to an external device supporting 5.1CH.

➢

Each external input source device has a different back panel configuration.

➢

If you have an external device (DVD player/Cable Box/Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box)) connected via HDMI to the TV,

Memorizing the Channels

Your TV can memorize and store all of the available channels for both “off-air” (air) and cable channels. After the available channels are memorized, use the CH or CH button 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 or deleting channels (Channel Lists).

Selecting the Video Signal-source

Before your television can begin memorizing the available channels, you must specify the type of signal source that is connected to the TV (i.e. an air or a cable system).
