Thank you for purchasing this Samsung product.
To receive more complete service, please register
your product at
A detailed User’s Manual is built into your TV. For more information about how to view this e-Manual, see page 16.
Figures and illustrations in this User Manual are provided for reference only and may differ from actual product appearances.
Product design and specifications may be changed without notice.
Still image warning
Avoid displaying still images (such as jpeg picture files) or still image elements (such as TV channel logos, panorama or 4:3 image format, stock
or news bars at screen bottom etc.) on the screen. Constant displaying of still pictures can cause ghosting of LED screen, which will affect image
quality. To reduce risk of this effect, please follow below recommendations:
• Avoid displaying the same TV channel for long periods.
• Always try to display any image on full screen, use TV set picture format menu for best possible match.
• Reduce brightness and contrast values to minimum required to achieve desired picture quality, exceeded values may speed up the burnout process.
• Frequently use all TV features designed to reduce image retention and screen burnout, refer to proper user manual section for details.
Providing Proper Ventilation for Your TV
When you install your TV, maintain a distance of at least 4 inches between the TV and other objects (walls, cabinet sides, etc.) to ensure proper ventilation.
Failing to maintain proper ventilation may result in a fire or a problem with the product caused by an increase in its internal temperature.

After you have “physically” connected your TV to your network, you must configure the network connection to complete
the process. You can configure the connection during the Initial Setup process (see page 10 ) or after the Initial Setup
process, through the TV’s menu (see page 15).
The Wireless Network Connection
You can connect your TV to your LAN through a standard wireless router or modem. To connect wirelessly, you must first
attach a “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter” (WIS09ABGNX, WIS12ABGNX - sold separately) to the USB port on the side of
your TV. See the illustration below.
The LAN Port on the Wall
LAN Cable (Not Supplied)
Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter is sold separately and is offered by select retailers, E-commerce sites, and Samsungparts.
com. Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter supports the IEEE 802.11a/b/g and n communication protocols. Samsung
recommends using IEEE 802.11n. When you play video over a network connection using one of the other protocols, the video
may not play smoothly.
Wireless Security
Most wireless network systems incorporate a security system that requires devices that access the network through an access
point or AP (typically a wireless router or modem) to transmit an encrypted security code called an access key.
Your TV is compatible with the following security protocols:
If you select Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode and the Encryption type is set to WEP or TKIP on your AP or
wireless router, your TV will not support a connection, in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification specifications.
