products in its class. We are proud to offer you a product that will provide convenient,

dependable service and enjoyment for years to come.

Important Warranty Information Regarding PDP Format Viewing

Wide screen format PDP 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 constantly moving. Displaying stationary graphics and images on screen, such as the dark side-bars on non-expanded standard format PDP video and programming, should be limited to no more than 5% of the total PDP 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 PDP displays.

Displaying stationary images that exceed the above guidelines can cause uneven aging of PDP Displays that 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 and duration of PDP formats used for viewing. 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.

DNIeTM(Digital Natural Image engine)

This feature bring you more detailed image with 3D noise reduction, detail enhancement, contrast enhancement and white enhancement. New image compensation Algorithm gives brighter, clearer, much detailed image to you. DNIe

technology will fit every signals into your eyes.

User Instructions

◆ Screen Image retention

Do not display a still image (such as on a video game or when hooking up a PC to this PDP) on the plasma display 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 this screen when displaying a still image.

◆ Cell Defect

The plasma display panel consists of fine cells. Although the panels are produced with more than

99.9 percent active cells, there may be some cells that do not produce light or remain lit.

◆ Height

The PDP can normally operate only under 2000m in height. It might abnormally function at a place over 2000m in height and do not install and operate there.

◆ Warranty

- Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.

- Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.

Installing the Display on the Wall Attachment Panel

1 Remove the screws from the back of the PDP.

2 Use the screws and assemble the plastic hanger.

☛

◆ Please ask the installers to install the wall mount bracket.

◆ Please be sure to check if the plastic hanger is completely secured on both the left and right

side after hanging the PDP on the wall mount bracket.

◆ Please avoid catching your fingers while installing and adjusting the angle.

◆ Please tightly secure the wall mount bracket to the wall to avoid injury from a falling PDP.

3 Tighten the screws of the plastic hanger to the back side of the PDP.

4 Put the 4 pegs on the PDP in the grooves of the wall mount bracket and pull down on the PDP (!) to

secure it to the wall mount bracket (

@). Tighten the screws as shown (#) so that the PDP cannot be

separated from wall mount bracket.

➢

The exterior of the PDP may be different than the picture. (Assembly and installation of the plastic hanger is the same.)

Installing the Display Vertically

You can install the PDP vertically. (PPM42S3Q/50H3Q/63H3Q models are available. Other manufacturers do not guarantee a reliably working.) In this case, the fan automatically works. If you wish to stop the fan, position the PDP horizontally and then set “

Selectable Fan” to “Off ” in the “Function” menu.

Please use the wall attachment panel exclusively when installing vertically. And you have to put left side of the PDP on top when viewed from front.

Before Using the Video Wall and the Multiple Display Control function

Example for Multiple Display Control connections

1 Please create ID for each PDP before installing

them close together. It may be difficult to create IDs when operating the remote control for PDPs that are installed close to each other.

2 For details about Video Wall configuration and

operation, refer to “Setting the Multiple Screen” on page 27.

➢

◆ Press the MDC button on the remote control.

Select ID input on the menu. Use the numeric buttons to enter the ID for PDP adjustment. You can operate the remote control only for the PDP that has been selected.

◆ For details about Multiple Display Control, refer to “Setting the MDC (M

ultiple Display Control)” on page 25 and the Help section in MDC program CD.

◆ The PPM42S3Q model uses the same MDC program CD used for PPM42S3 model. The PPM50H3Q/63H3Q models use the same MDC program CD used for PPM50H3/63H3 models.

Connecting Speakers

1 Remove the screws on the rear of the PDP.

2 Hang the two “T” shaped hangers

on the square holes on the rear of the PDP.

3 Tighten the PDP and the speaker bracket using the screws removed from the PDP.

➢

When moving your PDP, do NOT hold the speaker connected to your PDP. It may damage the bracket clamping the speaker and your PDP together and result in a drop of your PDP and a risk of personal damage and injury.

Connecting Speakers (continued)

Ferrite Cores

The ferrite cores are used to attenuate undesired signals. When connecting cables, attach one of these ferrite cores to the cable near the connector.

Connect the speaker audio cable to the external speaker output jack on the rear of the PDP matching the “+” and “

” ends of the cable with the diagram on the PDP.

➢

◆ The speakers MUST have to a power handling capability of 10 watts minimum

(impedance 8Ω).

◆ When you connect the speaker wire to the external speaker out connector, first bind the speaker wire round the ferrite core to secure it.
