Important Warranty Information Regarding Television Format Viewing

✎ See the wa rrant y card for m ore information on warra nty terms.

Wide screen format PDP Displays (with 16:9 aspect ratios, the 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, with the images constantly in motion. Displaying stationary graphics and images on the screen, such as the dark sidebars on non-expanded 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 crawls, video game displays, station logos, web sites or computer graphics and patterns, should be limited as described above for all televisions. Displaying stationary images for more than 5% of total viewing time can cause uneven aging of your PDP display and leave subtle, but permanent burned-in ghost images in the PDP picture. To avoid this, vary the programming and images, and primarily display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars. On PDP models that offer picture sizing features, use these controls to view different formats as a full screen picture.

Be careful in the selection of television formats you use for viewing and the amount of time you view them. 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.

Important User Information

• Screen Image retention

Do not display a still image (such as that from a video game) on the plasma display panel for more than a few minutes. Still images can cause screen image retention (burn in). To avoid such image retention, reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.

• Heat on the top of the Plasma TV

The top side of the TV may become hot after long periods of use as heat dissipates from the panel through the vent hole in the upper part of the TV.

This is normal and does not indicate any defect or operational failure of unit. However, children should be prevented from touching the upper part of

the TV.

• The TV is making a ‘cracking’ noise.

A ‘cracking’ noise may occur when the TV contracts or expands due changes in the surrounding environment such as temperature or humidity.

This is normal and not a defect.

• Cell Defects

Your plasma TV has a panel containing 2,360,000 (HD-level) to 6,221,000 (FHD-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 41°F (5°C)

• A still image displayed too long may cause permanent damage to the

PDP Panel.

• After-images on the Screen.

Displaying still images from Video games or a 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.

• Caution

Your Samsung Plasma TV is a high quality television that has been carefully packaged to protect the integrity of its glass panel and component parts during shipment. It is, nonetheless, a fragile piece of electronics that requires careful handling. Refrain from putting undue stress on any part of the packaging when shipping or unpacking the TV. Use care when installing the TV. Avoid placing the TV in a location where it may be struck, exposed to sharp impacts, or fall. Panel breakage caused by a fall or impact strike is not covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.

Watching the Plasma TV in 4:3 format for a long period of time may leave traces of the borders on the left, right, top, or bottom of the screen. Playing a DVD or a game console may have a similar effect. Damage caused by the above effect is not covered by the warranty.

The glass screen of your PDP TV can break if you accidently drop the TV. Handle the TV with care. When moving the TV, always have two or more people pick it up and carry it as a safety precaution. Do not lay the TV ﬂat on its face or back.

Securing the TV to the Wall

Caution: Pulling, pushing, or climbing onto the TV may cause the TV to fall. In particular, ensure that your children do not hang over or destabilize the TV; doing so may cause the TV to tip over, resulting in serious injuries or death. Follow all safety precautions provided on the included Safety Flyer. For added stability, install the anti-fall device for safety purposes, as follows.

To prevent the TV from falling

✎ Since the necessary brackets, screws, and string or cable are

not supplied, please purchase these separately.

1. Insert the screws into the wall brackets and ﬁrmly fasten them to the wall. Make sure the screws are ﬁrmly ﬁxed to the wall.

✎ We strongly recommend you drive the screws into a stud.

2. Using M8 screws, insert the screws through the TV brackets, and then fasten the screws to the top VESA screw holes on the back of the TV.

3. Connect the brackets on the TV and the brackets on the wall with a strong string or cable, and then tie the string or cable tightly to the brackets.

✎ Verify all connections are properly secured. Periodically check

the connections for any sign of fatigue or failure. If you have any doubt about the security of your connections, contact a professional installer.

✎ Install the TV close to the wall so that it does not fall. ✎ Connect the string or cable so that the brackets on the wall

are at the same height or lower than the brackets on the T V. Untie the string or cable before moving the TV.

✎ To purcase a TV Holder k it, contact Samsung customer care.
