Important Warranty Information Regarding
Wide screen format LED Displays (with 16:9 aspect ratios, the ratio of the screen width to height) are primarily designed to view wide screen format fullmotion 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, with the images constantly in motion. Displaying stationary graphics and images on the 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 about the television formats you select and the length of time you view them. 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), still image elements (such as TV channel logos, stock or news bars at the screen bottom etc.),
or programs in panorama or 4:3 image format on the screen. Constantly displaying still pictures can cause image burn-in on the LED screen, which will
affect image quality. To reduce 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. Use the TV set’s picture format menu for the best possible match.

− To connect the TV to a digital device that does not support HDMI output, use an HDMI to DVI
cable and audio cables.
• If you connect an external device to the TV that uses an older version of HDMI, the video and audio
may not work. If this occurs, ask the manufacturer of the device about the HDMI version and, if it is
out of date, request an upgrade.
• Be sure to purchase a certified HDMI cable. Otherwise, the picture may not display or a connection
error may occur.

DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL)
✎
• When you connect a Digital Audio System to the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack, decrease
the volume of both the TV and the system.
• 5.1 CH (channel) audio is available when you connect the TV to an external device supporting 5.1
CH.
• When the receiver (or home theater) is set to on, you can hear sound output from the TV’s optical
jack. When the TV is receiving a DTV signal, the TV will send 5.1 CH sound to the home theater
receiver. When the source is a digital component such as a DVD player / Blu-ray player / cable box
/ STB (Set-Top-Box) satellite receiver and you connected it to the TV via HDMI, you will only hear
2 CH audio from the home theater receiver. If you want to hear 5.1 CH audio, connect the digital
audio out jack from your DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB satellite receiver directly to an
amplifier or home theater.
