Important Warranty Information Regarding
Television Format Viewing

✎ See the war ranty card for more infor mation on warranty

terms.

Wide screen format LED 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 sidebars on non- expanded 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 LED Displays that leave
subtle, but permanent burned-in ghost images in the LED picture.
To avoid this, vary the programming and images, and primarily
display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark
bars. On LED 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 you use for
viewing. Uneven LED aging as a result of format selection and use,
as well as burned-in images, are not covered by your Samsung
limited warranty.

Still image warning

Avoid displaying still images (such as jpeg picture files) or still
image elements (such as TV channel logos, TV shows or movies
in panorama or 4:3 format, stock or news scroll bars, etc.) on the
screen. The constant display of still pictures can cause ghosting or
image burn-in (image retention) on the LED screen, which will affect
image quality. To reduce the risk of this effect, please follow the
recommendations below:

• Avoid displaying the same TV channel for long periods.

• Always try to display any image in full screen mode. Use the TV's
Picture Options menu to select the optimal screen size.

• Reduce brightness and contrast values to the minimum required
to achieve the desired picture quality. Values that exceed the
minimum may speed up the burn-in process.

• Frequently use all TV features designed to reduce image retention
and screen burn-in. Refer to proper user manual section for
details.

Troubleshooting

If the TV seems to have a problem, first review this list of possible problems and solution. If none of these troubleshooting tips apply, visit
samsung.com, then click on Support, or call Samsung customer service at 1-800-SAMSUNG.

Problem Possible Solution

Flickering and Dimming If your Samsung Television is flickering or dimming sporadically, you may need to disable some of its energy efficient

features like the Eco Sensor or the Energy Saving feature. Follow the steps below with your remote to turn these
features off or on.

y Energy saving : Menu → Setup → Eco Solution → Energy Saving →Select Settings

y Eco Sensor : Menu → Setup → Eco Solution → Eco Sensor →Select Settings

Component Connections /
Screen Color

If you find that the color on your Samsung television’s screen is not correct or black and white, first run a Self
Diagnosis Test on the TV to make sure there are no device issues.

y Self Diagnosis : User Menu → Support → Self Diagnosis → Picture Test

y If the test is ok, try making sure ;

y Your connections are all consistent. For example, if you’ve used the AV In jack on your TV, make sure you have

used the AV Out jack on your video source.

y Try making sure you have connected to the correct jacks. For example, if you use the Component jacks, labeled

Pb, Pr, and Y, to connect your TV and video source, make sure you have connected the blue Pb jack on the
video source to the blue Pb jack on the TV, the red Pr jack on the source to the red Pr jack on the TV.

Screen Brightness If you find that the colors on your Samsung TV are correct but just a little too dark or bright, there are some settings

you should check before calling for a repair.

y Backlight, Contrast, Brightness, Sharpness, Color, Tint and so on. Go to “Picture” in the Menu, and then try

adjusting these options.

Unwanted Powering off If your Samsung TV appears to turn off by itself, there may be an issue with either your Timer settings or your Eco

friendly No Signal Power Off feature.

First make sure the Sleep Timer is not accidentally set. The Sleep Timer lets you fall asleep with the TV still on
knowing that it will turn off after a certain period of time and not waste energy.

y Sleep Timer : User Menu → Setup → Time → Sleep Timer

If the Sleep Timer is not activated, you may have engaged the No Signal Power Off or Auto Power Off feature.

y No Signal Power Off : User Menu → Setup → Eco Solution → No Signal Power

y Auto Power Off : User Menu → Setup → Eco Solution → Auto Power Off

Trouble Powering On Before you turn the TV on, find the red light on the right or left bottom of your TV. Press the power on button

on the TV or remote and the light should blink about 5 times before the TV turns on.

If you find that you are having trouble powering on your Samsung television, there are a number of things to check it
before making a call to the service department.

y If you happen to be using the TV as a monitor and the stand-by light only blinks for a few seconds when you

press the power button, your PC is in sleep mode. To take your PC out of sleep mode, press a key on your
keyboard or move the mouse. Then try turning your TV on.

If you’re sure your power cord, remote control, and PC are functioning properly, you may be having a cable issue. If
you have a cable or satellite box, your TV may appear to be off because the cable or satellite box is not outputting a
signal. To test the signal output of your cable or satellite box, press the guide or info button on the cable or satellite
box remote control. If the screen displays the guide or info data, the problem is caused by the box.

Stand Assembly • If you have any trouble assembling the stand, refer to “Install the Stand” in the Start Up or Stand Installation Guide.

Cannot find a channel • Re-run Plug & Play or run Auto Program. (go to MENU - Channel - Auto Program)

Poor Picture First, perform the Picture Test and to see if your TV is displaying the test image properly.

Go to MENU - Support - Self Diagnosis - Picture Test
If the test image is properly displayed, the poor picture may be caused by the source or signal.

The TV image does not look as good as
it did in the store.

• If you have an analog cable/satellite box, upgrade to a digital set top box. Use HDMI or Component cables to
deliver HD (high definition) picture quality.

• Cable/Satellite subscribers: Try HD channels from the channel line up.

• Air/Cable Antenna connection: Try HD channels after running Auto Program.

✎ Many HD cha nnels broadcas t up scaled SD (Stan dard Definitio n) content. The pictu re quality of up

scaled SD content is lo w.

• Adjust the Cable/Set top box video output resolution to 1080i or 720p.

The picture is distorted: macroblock
error, small block, dots, pixelization.

• Compression of video contents may cause picture distortion, especially on fast moving pictures such as those in
sports and action movies.

• A weak signal can cause picture distortion. This is not a TV problem.

• Mobile phones used close to the TV (within 3.3ft) may cause noise in the picture on analog and digital channels.

Color is wrong or missing. • If you’re using a component connection, make sure the component cables are connected to the correct jacks.

Incorrect or loose connections may cause color problems or a blank screen.

There is poor color or brightness. • Adjust the Picture options in the TV menu. (go to Picture Mode / Color / Brightness / Sharpness)
