Precautions When Displaying a Still Image

A still image may cause permanent damage to the TV screen

Do not display a still image on the LCD panel for more than 2 hours as it can cause screen image retention. This image retention is also known as “screen burn”. To avoid such image retention, reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.

Watching the LCD 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 a similar effect to the screen. Damages caused by the above effect are not covered

by the Warranty.

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.

1.Lift the cover at the back of the remote control upward as shown in the figure.

2.Install two AAA size batteries.

N Make sure to match the ‘+’ and ‘–’ ends of the batteries with the diagram inside the compartment.

3.Replace the cover.

NRemove the batteries and store them in a cool, dry place if you won’t be using the

remote control for a long time. (Assuming typical TV usage, the batteries should last for about one year.)

NIf the remote control doesn’t work, check the following:

Is the TV power on?

Are the plus and minus ends of the batteries reversed?

Are the batteries drained?

Is there a power outage or is the power cord unplugged?

Is there a special fluorescent light or neon sign nearby?

Connections

¦ Connecting VHF and UHF Antennas

If your antenna has a set of leads that look like the diagram to the right, see ‘Antennas with 300

Ω Flat Twin Leads’ below.

If your antenna has one lead that looks like the diagram to the right, 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 IN terminal on the back of the TV.

Antennas with 75 Ω Round Leads

Plug the antenna lead into the ANT IN terminal on the back of the TV.

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 ANT IN 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

Plug the incoming cable into the ANT IN terminal on the back of the TV.

N Because this TV is cable-ready, you do not need a cable box to view unscrambled cable channels.

Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles All Channels

ANT IN

1.Find the cable that is connected to the ANT OUT terminal on your cable box. N This terminal might be labeled ‘ANT OUT’, ‘VHF OUT’ or simply, ‘OUT’.

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 twoway splitter, an RF (A/B) switch and four lengths of RF cable. (These items are available at most electronics stores.)

ANT IN

Incoming cable TV Rear

Splitter

RF (A/B) Switch

 

 

Cable Box

1.Find and disconnect the cable that is connected to the ANT IN terminal on your cable box.

N This terminal might be labeled ‘ANT IN’, ‘VHF IN’ or simply, ‘IN’.

2.Connect this cable to a two-way splitter.

3.Connect an RF cable between the OUTPUT terminal on the splitter and the IN terminal on the cable box.

4.Connect an RF cable between the ANT OUT terminal on the cable box and the B–IN terminal on the RF(A/B) switch.

5.Connect another cable between the other OUT terminal on the splitter and the A–IN terminal on the RF (A/B) switch.

6.Connect the last RF cable between the OUT terminal on the RF (A/B) switch and the ANT IN terminal on the rear of the TV.

After you have made this connection, set the A/B switch to the ‘A’ position for normal viewing. Set the A/B switch to the ‘B’ position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switch to ‘B’, you will need to tune your TV to the cable box’s output channel, which is usually channel 3 or 4.)

N What is HDMI?

HDMI(High-Definition Multimedia Interface), is an 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 and has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed.

N Each DVD / Blu-ray player / Cable Box / Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) has a different back panel configuration.

¦ Using Your TV as a Computer (PC) Display

Setting Up Your PC Software (Based on Windows XP)

The Windows display-settings for a typical computer are shown below. The actual screens on your PC will probably be different, depending upon your particular version of Windows and your particular video card. However, even if your actual screens look different, the same basic set-up information will apply in almost all cases. (If not, contact your computer manufacturer or Samsung Dealer.)

1.First, click on ‘Control Panel’ in the Windows start menu.

2.When the control panel window appears, click on ‘Appearance and Themes’ and a display dialog-box will appear.

3.When the control panel window appears, click on ‘Display’ and a display dialog-box will appear.

4.Navigate to the ‘Settings’ tab on the display dialog-box.

The correct size setting (resolution): Optimum: 1920 X 1080 pixels

If a vertical frequency option exists on your display settings dialog box, the correct value is 60 or 60 Hz. Otherwise, just click OK and exit the dialog box.

Display Modes

If the signal from the system equals the standard signal mode, the screen is adjusted automatically. If the signal from the system doesn’t equal the standard signal mode, adjust the mode by referring to your videocard user guide; otherwise there may be no video. For the display modes listed below, the screen image has been optimized during manufacturing.
