Important Warranty Information Regarding Television Format Viewing
See the warranty card for more information on warranty terms.
Wide screen format LCD Displays (16:9, the aspect ratio of the screen width to height) are primarily designed to view wide screen format full­motion 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 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 LCD Displays that leave subtle, but permanent burned-in ghost images in the LCD picture. To avoid this, vary the programming and images, and primarily display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars. On LCD 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 LCD 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.

Network Connection
You can set up your TV so that it can access the Internet through your local area network (LAN) using a wired or wireless connection.
Connecting to a Wired Network ¦
You can attach your TV to your LAN using cable in three ways:
You can attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your TV to an external modem using a Cat y 5 cable. See the diagram below.
The Modem Port on the Wall
You can attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your TV to a IP Sharer which is connected y to an external modem. Use Cat 5 cable for the connection. See the diagram below.

Depending on how your network is configured, you may be able to attach your TV to your LAN by connecting the LAN y port on the back of your TV directly to a network wall outlet using a Cat 5 cable. See the diagram below. Note that the wall outlet is attached to a modem or router elsewhere in your house.

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 do not 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 wireless, you need a wireless router or modem and a Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter (WIS09ABGN), 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.
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) to use a wireless network.
x
Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter and the USB extension Cable are sold separately and are offered by select retailers,

Ecommerce sites and Samsungparts.com. To use a wireless network, your TV must be connected 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 blow, it will not work with the TV.

Configuration) or PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS will automatically configure the SSID and WPA key in either mode.
Keep the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter at a distance from the TV. If you watch the TV with the Adapter connected

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 on-screen 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.
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.

For more information, refer to the wireless network
setup manual of the device to be connected.
5. If the TV connects properly to the device after the count in the message box starts, then the message box disappears automatically.
If the connection fails, please retry after 2 minutes.
If Your TV Fails to Connect to the Internet
Your TV may not be able to connect to the Internet because your ISP has permanently registered the MAC address (a unique identifying number) of your PC or modem, which it then authenticates each time you connect to the Internet as a way of preventing unauthorized access. As your TV has a different MAC address, your ISP can not authenticate its MAC address, and your TV can not connect.
To resolve this problem, ask your ISP about the procedures required to connect devices other than a PC (such as your TV) to the Internet.
If your Internet service provider requires an ID or password to connect to the Internet, your TV may not be able to connect to the Internet. If this is the case, you must enter your ID or password when connecting to the Internet.
The Internet connection may fail because of a firewall problem. If this is the case, contact your Internet service
provider. If you cannot connect to the Internet even after you have
followed the procedures of your Internet service provider, please contact Samsung Electronics at 1-800-SAMSUNG.
