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.

How to Set up Your PC Software (Windows only)
The Windows display-settings for a typical computer are shown below. But the actual screens on your PC will probably be different, depending upon your particular version of Windows and your particular video card.
Setting up your PC (depending on the model)
First, click on Settings on the Windows start menu.
While Settings is highlighted, move the cursor so that Control Panel is highlighted.
When the control panel screen appears, click on Display and a display dialog-box will appear.
Navigate to the Settings tab on the display dialog-box.
The two key variables that apply the TV-PC interface are resolution and colors. The correct settings for these two variables are:
Size (resolution): 800 x 600 pixels
Color: 24-bit color (might also be expressed
as 16 million colors) Shown at left is a typical screen for Display dialog box.
If a vertical-frequency option exists on your display settings dialog box, the correct value is 60 or 60 Hz. Otherwise, just click OK and exit the dialog box.
800 by 600 pixels
The text quality of PC screen is optimum in the VGA mode (640 x 480), the full size displayed PC
mode is optimum in the SVGA mode (800 x 600).
When this TV is used as a PC display, 24-bit color is supported (over 16 million colors).
Your PC display screen might appear different, depending on the manufacturer (and depending on your
particular version of Windows). Check your PC instruction book for information about connecting your PC to a TV display-monitor.
If a vertical and horizontal frequency-select mode exists, select 60Hz (vertical) and 31.5kHZ (horizontal).
In some cases, abnormal signals (such as stripes) might appear on the screen when the PC power is
turned off (or if the PC is disconnected). If so, press the TV button to enter the TV mode. Also, make sure that the PC is connected.
If a phenomenon with an unstable horizontal sync happens while using your PC, please check the power saving mode and power condition of PC and cable connections.
Both screen position and size will vary, depending on the type of PC monitor and its resolution.
The interlace mode is not supported.
The TV operates abnormally if a non-standard
video format is selected.
