Important Warranty Information Regarding Television Format Viewing

N 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 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 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.

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.

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 300Ω 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.

Connects to the HDMI jack of a device with an HDMI output.

N No sound connection is needed for an HDMI to HDMI connection.

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.

NThe TV may not output sound and pictures may be displayed with abnormal color when DVD / Blu-ray player / Cable Box / Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) supporting HDMI versions older than 1.3 are connected. When connecting an older HDMI cable and there is no sound, connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI IN 1(DVI) jack and the audio cables to the DVI AUDIO IN [R-AUDIO-L] jacks on the back of the TV. If this happens, contact the company that provided the DVD / Blu-ray player / Cable Box / Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) to confirm the HDMI version, then request an upgrade.

N HDMI cables that are not 1.3 may cause annoying flicker or no screen display.

NUse the HDMI IN 1(DVI) jack for DVI connection to an external device. Use a DVI to HDMI cable or DVI-HDMI adapter (DVI to HDMI) for video connection and the DVI AUDIO IN [R-AUDIO-L] jacks for audio. When using an HDMI / DVI cable connection, you must use the HDMI IN 1(DVI) jack.

N If you have a ‘mono’ (non-stereo) VCR, use a Y-connector (not supplied) to connect to the right and left audio input jacks of the TV. Alternatively, connect the cable to the ‘R’ jack. If your VCR is stereo, you must connect two cables.

N When connecting to AV IN 1, the color of the AV IN 1 [Y/VIDEO] jack (Green) does not match the color of the video cable (Yellow).

6PC IN [PC] / [AUDIO]

Connects to the video and audio output jacks on your PC.

N If your PC supports an HDMI connection, you can connect this to the HDMI IN 1(DVI), 2, 3 or 4 terminal.

N If your PC supports a DVI connection, you can connect this to the HDMI IN 1(DVI) / DVI AUDIO IN [R-AUDIO-L] terminal.

7DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL)

Connects to a Digital Audio component such as a Home theater receiver.

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

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

N When the Home Theater receiver is set to On, you can hear sound output from the TV’s Optical jack. When the TV is displaying a DTV(air) signal, the TV will send out 5.1 channel sound to the Home theater receiver. When the source is a digital component such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / Cable Box / Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) and is connected to the TV via HDMI, only 2 channel sound will be heard from the Home Theater receiver. If you want to hear 5.1 channel audio, connect the digital audio out jack on DVD / Blu-ray player / Cable Box / Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) directly to an Amplifier or Home Theater, not the TV.
