We designed it with easy-to-use on-screen menus and closed captioning capabilities, making it one of the best 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 Safety Information
Always be careful when using your TV receiver. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and other injuries, keep these safety precautions in mind when installing, using, and maintaining your machine.
• Read all safety and operating instructions before operating your TV.
• Keep the safety and operating instructions for future reference.
• Heed all warnings on the TV receiver and in the operating instructions.
• Follow all operating and use instructions.
• Unplug the TV receiver from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth; do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
• Never add any attachments and/or equipment without approval of the manufacturer. Such additions can increase the risk of fire, electric shock, or other personal injury.
• Do not use the TV receiver where contact with or immersion in water is a possibility, such as near bath tubs, sinks, washing machines, swimming pools, etc.
• Do not place the TV on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table where it can fall. A falling TV can cause serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manu­facturer or sold with the TV. Follow the manufacturer’s instruc­tions when mounting the unit, and use a mounting accessory rec­ommended by the manufacturer. Move the TV and cart with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces can make the unit and cart unsteady and likely to overturn.
• Provide ventilation for the TV receiver. The unit is designed with slots in the cabinet for ventilation to protect it from overheating. Do not block these openings with any object, and do not place the TV receiver on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do not place it near a radiator or heat register. If you place the TV receiver on a rack or bookcase, ensure that there is adequate ventilation and that you’ve followed the manufacturer’s instructions for mounting.
• Operate your TV receiver only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company.
• Use only a grounded or polarized outlet. For your safety, this TV is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug having one blade wider than the other. This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact your electrician to replace your outlet.
• Protect the power cord. Power supply cords should be routed so that they won’t be walked on or pinched by objects placed on or against them. Pay particular attention to cords at plugs, con­venience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the unit.
• Unplug the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system during a light­ning storm or when left unattended and unused for long periods of time. This will prevent dam­age to the unit due to lightning and power-line surges.
• Avoid overhead power lines. An outside antenna system should not be placed in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, be extremely careful to keep from touching the power lines or circuits. Contact with such lines can be fatal.
• Do not overload the wall outlet or extension cords. Overloading can result in fire or electric shock.
• Do not insert anything through the openings in the unit, where they can touch dangerous volt­age points or damage parts. Never spill liquid of any kind on the TV.
• Ground outdoor antennas. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984, provides information about proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
• Do not attempt to service the TV yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Unplug the unit from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
- when the power-supply cord or plug is damaged
- if liquid has been spilled on the unit or if objects have fallen into the unit
- if the TV has been exposed to rain or water
- if the TV does not operate normally by following the operating instructions
- if the TV has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged
- when the TV exhibits a distinct change in performance
• If you make adjustments yourself, adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions. Adjusting other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the TV to normal.
• When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or those that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in additional damage to the unit.
• Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the TV is in a safe operating condition.

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.

If your antenna has one lead that looks like this, see “Antennas with 75-ohm Round Leads,” on page 2.2.
If you have two antennas, see “Separate VHF and UHF Antennas,” on page 2.2.
Antennas with 300-ohm Flat Twin Leads
If you are using an off-air antenna (such as a roof antenna or rabbit ears) that has 300­ohm twin flat leads, follow the directions below.
Chapter Two
INSTALLATION
1
Place the wires from the twin leads under the screws on the 300-75 ohm adaptor (not sup­plied). Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws.
2
Plug the adaptor into the ANT-A or ANT-B terminal on the rear panel.

CHAPTER TWO: INSTALLATION 2.2
Connecting Cable TV
You can connect different cable systems to your TV, including cable without a cable box, and cable with a cable box that descrambles some or all channels.
Cable without a Cable Box
If you want to connect cable, and you do not need to use a cable box:
Plug the incoming cable into the ANT-A or ANT-B antenna terminal on the rear of the TV.
2
Plug the combiner into the ANT-A or ANT-B ter­minal on the rear panel.
INSTALLATION
Antennas with 75-ohm Round Leads
Plug the antenna lead into the ANT-A or ANT-B terminal on the rear panel.
Separate VHF and UHF Antennas
If you have two separate antennas for your TV (one VHF and one UHF), you must combine the two antenna signals before connecting the antennas to the TV. This procedure requires a an optional combiner-adaptor (available at most electronics shops).
1
Connect both antenna leads to the combiner.
2.3 CHAPTER TWO: INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION
Cable with a Cable box that Descrambles All Channels
1
Find the cable that is connected to the ANTENNA OUT terminal on your cable box. This terminal might be labeled “ANT OUT”, “VHF OUT”, or simply, “OUT”.
2
Connect the other end of this cable to the ANT-A or ANT-B terminal on the rear of the TV.
This terminal might be labeled “ANT IN,” “VHF IN,” or simply, “IN.”
Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles Some Channels
If your cable box descrambles only some channels (such as premium channels), follow the instructions below. You will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four lengths of coaxial cable. (These items are available at most electronics stores.)
1
Find and disconnect the cable that is connected to the ANTENNA IN ter­minal on your cable box.
2
Connect this cable to a two-way splitter.
3
Connect a coaxial cable between an OUTPUT ter­minal on the splitter and the IN terminal on the cable box.
CHAPTER TWO: INSTALLATION 2.4
INSTALLATION
4
Connect a coaxial cable between the ANTENNA OUT terminal on the cable box and the B–IN terminal on the A/B switch.
5
Connect another cable between the other OUT terminal on the splitter and the A–IN terminal on the RF (A/B) switch.
6
Connect the last coaxial cable between the OUT terminal on the RF (A/B) switch and the VHF/UHF terminal on the rear of the TV.
After youve made this connection, set the A/B switch to the “A” position for normal view­ing. Set the A/B switch to the “B” position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switch to B, you will need to tune your TV to the cable boxs output channel, which is usually channel 3 or 4.)
2.5 CHAPTER TWO: INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION
Connecting a VCR
These instructions assume that you have already connected your TV to an antenna or a cable TV system (according to the instructions on pages 2.1-2.3). Skip step 1 if you have not yet connected to an antenna or a cable system.
1
Connect a coaxial cable between the ANTENNA OUT terminal on the VCR and the antenna terminal on the TV.
A coaxial cable is usually included with a VCR. (If not, check your local electronics store).
2
Connect a set of audio cables between the AUDIO OUT jacks on the VCR and the AUDIO jacks on the TV.
If you have a mono VCR, connect L(mono) to VCR audio out using only one audio cable.
3
Connect a video cable between the VIDEO OUT jack on the VCR and the VIDEO jack on the TV.
If you have a S-VHS VCR, use the S-Video connections and remove the video cable. Do not connect the video cable and the S­Video cable to video 1 simultaneously.
Follow the instructions in Viewing a VCR or Camcorder Tape to view your VCR tape.
Note: This figure shows the Standard Connector-jack panel. The actual configuration on your TV may be different, depending on the model.
CHAPTER TWO: INSTALLATION 2.6
INSTALLATION
Connecting a Camcorder
The side panel jacks on your TV make it easy to connect a camcorder to your TV. They allow you to view the camcorder tapes without using a VCR.
1
Locate the A/V output jacks on the camcorder. They are usually found on the side or rear of the camcorder.
2
Connect an audio cable between the AUDIO OUTPUT jack on the camcorder and the AUDIO terminals on the side of the TV.
If you have mono camcorder, connect L(mono) to camcorder audio out using only one audio cable.
3
Connect a video cable between the VIDEO OUTPUT jack on the camcorder and the VIDEO terminal on the sidet of the TV.
The audio-video cables shown here are usually included with a Camcorder. (If not, check your local electronics store.) If your camcorder is stereo, you need to connect a set of two cables.
Connecting a Second VCR to Record from the TV
Your TV can send out signals of its picture and sound to be recorded by a second VCR. To do this, connect your second VCR as follows:
1
Connect a set of audio cables between the AUDIO OUT jacks on the TV and the AUDIO IN jacks on the VCR.
(The VCR input jacks might be either on the front or rear of the VCR.)
2
Connect a video cable between the VIDEO OUT jack on the TV and the VIDEO IN jack on the VCR.
Refer to your VCR’s instructions for more information about how to record using this kind of connection.
Note: This figure shows the Standard Connector-jack panel. The actual configuration on your TV may be different, depending on the model.
