A detailed User’s Manual is built into your TV. For more information about how to view this e-Manual, see page 11.

Figures and illustrations in this User Manual are provided for reference only and may differ from actual product appearances. Product design and specifications may be changed without notice.

Important User Information

• Screen Image retention

Avoid displaying a still image, such as an image from a video game or a small fixed channel logo, on the plasma display panel for more than a few minutes as it can cause screen image retention. This image retention is also known as “screen burn”. If displaying a still image is unavoidable, decrease the possibility of image retention by reducing the brightness and contrast of the screen.

• 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 the 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 to a change 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.

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.

• After-images on the Screen.

Displaying still images from Video games and PC's for longer than a certain period of time may produce partial afterimages.

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

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.

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.

Making Connections

Connect your TV to an antenna or cable connection, and then connect your peripherals. When done, connect the power cord to the TV, and then connect the power cord to an AC wall outlet. If you are connecting your TV to a cable or satellite box using HDMI, Component, or Composite connections, you do not need to connect the ANT IN jack to an antenna or a cable connection.

• For the best picture and audio quality, connect digital devices using an HDMI cable.

• If you connect an external device to the TV that uses an older version of HDMI, the video and audio may not work. If this occurs, ask the manufacturer of the device about the HDMI version and, if it is out of date, request an upgrade.

• Be sure to purchase a certified HDMI cable. Otherwise, the picture may not display or a connection error may occur.

• PC/DVI AUDIO IN input is not supported.

• For a set-top box connection using an HDMI cable, we highly recommend you connect the cable to the HDMI IN

1(STB) port.

• For an HDMI to DVI cable connection, you must use the HDMI IN 2(DVI) jack.

• If you connect a device to the HDMI IN 2(DVI) port using an HDMI to DVI cable, the audio will not work. DVI does not transmit audio. You must add a separate audio connection.

• For PCs with DVI video out jacks, use an HDMI to DVI cable to connect the DVI out on the PC to the HDMI IN 2(DVI) jack on the TV. Use the PC's speakers for audio.

To see Analog channels clearly, prevent the antenna cables from contacting the rear of the TV.

Connect the antenna cables directly without using a divider.
