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. Constant displaying of still pictures can cause ghosting of LCD screen, which will affect image
quality. To reduce risk of this effect, please follow below recommendations:
• Avoid displaying the same TV channel for long periods.
• Always try to display any image on full screen, use TV set picture format menu for best possible match.
• Reduce brightness and contrast values to minimum required to achieve desired picture quality, exceeded values may speed up the burnout
process.
• Frequently use all TV features designed to reduce image retention and screen burnout, refer to proper user manual section for details.
Securing the Installation Space
Keep the required distances between the product and other objects (e.g. walls) to ensure proper ventilation.
Failing to do so may result in fire or a problem with the product due to an increase in the internal temperature of the product.
When using a stand or wall-mount, use parts provided by Samsung Electronics only.
✎
If you use parts provided by another manufacturer, it may result in a problem with the product or an injury due to the product falling.
x
The appearance may differ depending on the product.
✎
Be careful when you contact the TV because some parts can be somewhat hot.

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, WIS09ABGN2, WIS10ABGN), which you connect to your TV’s side panel USB jack. See the illustration below.
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, WIS09ABGN2, WIS10ABGN) to use a wireless
x
network.
Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter and the USB extension Cable are sold separately and are offered by select retailers,
x
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 below, it will not work with the TV.
x
If Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode is selected and the Encryption type is set to WEP, TKIP or
x
TKIPAES (WPS2Mixed) for your AP, Samsung TVs will not support a connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi
certification specifications.
If your AP supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect to the network via PBC (Push Button
x
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
x
nearby, images may appear corrupted for some channels.
If your router, modem, or device is not certified, it may not connect to the TV via the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter.”
x
Connection Methods: You can setup the wireless network connection on four ways.

– PBC(WPS)
– Auto Setup (Using the Auto Network Search function)
– Manual Setup

Most wireless networks have an optional security system
that requires devices that access the network to transmit
an encrypted security code called an Access or Security
Key. The Security Key is based on a Pass Phrase, typically
a word or a series of letters and numbers of a specified
length you were asked to enter when you set up security for
your wireless network. If you use this method of setting up
the network connection, and have a Security Key for your
wireless network, you will have to enter the Pass Phrase

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.
