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

Digital TV notice

1. Functionalities related to Digital TV (DVB) are only available in countries/areas where DVB-T (MPEG2 and MPEG4 AVC) digital terrestrial signals are broadcasted or where you are able to access to a compatible DVB-C (MPEG2 and MPEG4 AAC) cable-TV service. Please check with your local dealer the possibility to receive DVB-T or DVB-C signal.

2. DVB-T is the DVB European consortium standard for the broadcast transmission of digital terrestrial television and DVB-C is that for the broadcast transmission of digital TV over cable. However, some differentiated features like EPG (Electric Programme Guide), VOD (Video On Demand) and so on, are not included in this speciﬁcation. So, they cannot be workable at this moment.

3. Although this TV set meets the latest DVB-T and DVB-C standards, as of [August, 2008], the compatibility with future DVB-T digital terrestrial and DVB-C digital cable broadcasts cannot be guaranteed.

4. Depending on the countries/areas where this TV set is used some cable-TV providers may charge an additional fee for such a service and you may be required to agree to terms and conditions of their business.

5. Some Digital TV functions might be unavailable in some countries or regions and DVB-C might not work correctly with some cable service providers.

6. For more information, please contact your local Samsung customer care centre.

The reception quality of TV may be affected due to differences in broadcasting method between the countries. Please check the TV

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 monitor 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.

• Heat on the top of the Plasma TV

The top side of the product may be hot after long period of use as heat dissipates from the panel through the vent hole in the upper part of the

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

• The product is making a “cracking” noise.

A “cracking” noise may occur when the product contracts or expands due to a change in the surrounding environment such as temperature or

humidity. This is normal and not a defect of the unit.

• Cell Defects

The PDP uses a panel consisting of 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 borders displayed on the left, right and centre of

the screen caused by the difference of light emission on the screen. Playing a DVD or a game console may cause similar effects to the screen. Damages caused by the above effect are not covered by the Warranty.

• After-images on the Screen.

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 for a long time.

• Warranty

Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention. Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.

✎

HDMI IN 1(DVI), 2, DVI AUDIO IN

When using an HDMI/DVI cable connection, you must use the HDMI IN 1(DVI) jack. For the DVI cable

connection, use a DVI to HDMI cable or DVI-HDMI (DVI to HDMI) adapter for video connection and the

DVI AUDIO IN jacks for audio.

If an external device such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB satellite receiver supporting a HDMI

versions older than 1.3 is connected, the TV may operate abnormally (e.g. no screen display / no sound / annoying flicker / abnormal colour).

If there is no sound after connecting an HDMI cable, check the HDMI version of the external device. If you

suspect the version is older than 1.3, contact the provider of the device to confirm the HDMI version and request an upgrade.

It is recommended you purchase an HDMI-certified cable. Otherwise, the screen may appear blank or a

connection error may occur.

When a Digital Audio System is connected to the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack, decrease the volume

of both the TV and the system.

5.1 CH (channel) audio is available when the TV is connected to an external device supporting 5.1 CH.

When the receiver (amplifier or DVD home theatre) is set to on, you can hear sound output from the TV’s

optical jack. When the TV is receiving a DTV signal, the TV will send 5.1 CH sound to the amplifier or DVD home theatre. When the source is a digital component such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB (Set-Top-Box) satellite receiver and is connected to the TV via HDMI, only 2 CH audio will be heard from the amplifier or DVD home theatre. If you want to hear 5.1 CH audio, connect the digital audio out jack from your DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB satellite receiver directly to an amplifier or home theatre.

04 Advanced Features

What is Anynet+?

Anynet+ is a function that enables you to control all connected Samsung devices that support Anynet+ with your Samsung TV’s remote. The Anynet+ system can be used only with Samsung devices that have the Anynet+ feature. To be sure your Samsung device has this feature, check if there is an Anynet+ logo on it.

To connect to Home Theatre

1. Connect the HDMI IN (1(DVI), 2) jack on the TV and the HDMI OUT jack of the corresponding Anynet+ device using an

HDMI cable.

2. Connect the HDMI IN jack of the home theatre and the HDMI OUT jack of the corresponding Anynet+ device using an HDMI cable.

✎

NOTE

Connect the Optical cable between the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack on your TV and the Digital Audio Input

on the Home Theatre. When following the connection above, the Optical jack only outputs 2 channel audio. You will only hear sound

from the Home Theatre’s Front, Left and Right speakers and the subwoofer. If you want to hear 5.1 channel audio, connect the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack on the DVD / satellite box (i.e. Anynet Device 1 or 2) directly to the Amplifier or Home Theatre, not the TV.

Connect only one Home Theatre.

You can connect an Anynet+ device using the HDMI cable. Some HDMI cables may not support Anynet+ functions.

Anynet+ works when the AV device supporting Anynet+ is in the standby or on status.

Anynet+ supports up to 12 AV devices in total. Note that you can connect up to 3 devices of the same type.
