Important Warranty Information
Regarding Television Format Viewing
User Instructions
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 the
images are constantly moving. Displaying stationary graphics and images on screen, such as the dark
side-bars on nonexpanded standard format television video and programming, should be limited to no
more than 5% 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 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 television 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.
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 several minutes as it can cause screen image retention. This image retention is
also known as “screen burn”. To avoid such image retention, refer to page 40 of this manual to 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.
Altitude
The PDP will not operate normally at altitudes above 6500 ft.
Warranty
Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.
Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.

Setting up Your PDP (Plug and Play)
Our adoption of the new VESAPlug and Play solution eliminates complicated and time consuming
setup. It allows you to install your monitor in a Plug and Play compatible system, without the usual
setup hassles and confusion. Your PC system can easily identify and configure itself for use with your
display. This monitor automatically tells the PC system its Extended Display Identification data (EDID)
using Display Data Channel (DDC) protocols.

How to Set up Your PC Software (Windows only)
The Windows display-settings for a typical computer are shown below. However, the actual screens
on your PC will probably be different, depending upon your particular version of Windows and your
particular video card. But even if your actual screens look different, the same, basic set-up information
will apply in almost all cases. (If not, contact your computer manufacturer or Samsung Dealer.)
On the windows screen, select in the following
sequence : Start ➝ Settings ➝ Control Panel.
When the control panel screen appears, click on
“Display” and a display dialog-box will appear.
Select the “Settings” tab in the display dialogbox.
The two key variables that apply to the PDP-PC
interface are “resolution” and “colors”.
The correct settings for these two variables are:
• Size (sometimes called “resolution”)
:640 x 480 pixels.
• Color: “32-bit” color
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.

Viewing Closed Captions
Your TV decodes and displays the closed captions that are broadcast with certain TV
shows. These captions are usually subtitles for the hearing impaired or foreign language
translations. All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so
home-recorded video tapes also provide closed captions. Most prerecorded commercial
video tapes provide closed captions as well. Check for the closed caption symbol in
your television schedule and on the tape’s packaging: .
Note: The Caption feature does not work with DVD or DTV signals.

At this point, one of the TV-Ratings is selected.
Press the ENTER button. Depending on your existing
setup, a symbol will be selected.
(Blank = Unblocked, = Blocked)
While “ ” is selected, press the ▲ or ▼ button to
block the category.
To select a different TV-Rating, press the ▲ or ▼
button and then repeat the process.
Note 1: The TV-Y7, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA have additional options. See the next step to
change any of the following sub-ratings:
FV: Fantasy violence
D: Sexually Suggestive Dialog
L: Adult Language
S: Sexual situation
V: Violence
Note 2: The V-Chip will automatically block certain categories that are “more restrictive”.
For example, if you block “TV-Y” category, then TV-Y7 will automatically be blocked.
Similarly, if you block the TV-G category, then all the categories in the “young adult” group
will be blocked (TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA). The sub-ratings (D, L, S, V) work together
similarly. (See next section.)
6
How to set the FV, D, L, S and V sub-ratings.
First, select one of these TV-Ratings: TV-Y7, TV-PG, TV-14 or TV-MA (See Step 4, on previous
page).
Next, while the TV-Rating is selected, repeatedly press the ENTER button.
This will cycle through the available sub-ratings (FV, L, S, D or V).
A symbol “ ” will be displayed for each sub-rating.
While “ ” is selected, press the ▲, ▼, œ, or √ button to change the sub-rating.
To select a different TV-Rating, press the ▲ or ▼ button and then repeat the process.
Note: The V-chip will automatically block certain categories that are “More restrictive”.
For example, if you block “L” sub-rating in TV-PG, then the “L” sub-ratings in TV-14 and TVMA will automatically be blocked.
7
Press the MENU button to clear all the screens. (Or proceed to the next section, and set up
additional restrictions based on the MPAA codes).
Note
• These categories consist of two separate groups: TV-Y and TV-Y7 (young children through age
7), and TV-G through TV-MA (everybody else).
The restrictions for these two groups work independently: If a household includes very young
children as well as young adults, the TV guidelines must be set up separately for each age
group. (See next step.)
