Important Warranty Information Regarding Television Format Viewing

Standard screen format televisions (4:3, the aspect ratio of the screen width to height) are

primarily designed to view standard format full-motion video. The images displayed on them

should primarily be in the standard 4:3 ratio format and constantly moving. Displaying stationary

graphics and images on screen, such as the dark top and bottom letterbox bars (wide screen

pictures), should be limited to no more than 15% of the total television viewing per week.

Wide screen format televisions (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 television video and

programming, should be limited to no more than 15% 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 any stationary images that exceed the above

guidelines can cause uneven aging of picture tubes (CRTs) that leave subtle, but permanent

burned-in ghost images in the television picture. To avoid this, vary the programming and

images, and primarily display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars.

On television models that offer picture sizing features, use these controls to view the different

formats as a full screen picture.

Be careful in the selection and duration of television formats used for viewing. Uneven CRT

aging as a result of format selection and use, as well as other burned-in images, is not covered by

your Samsung limited warranty.
