There Is a Problem with the Picture

When the TV has trouble with the picture, these steps may help resolve the problem.

Testing the picture

Settings Support Self Diagnosis Start Picture Test

Before you review the list of problems and solutions below, use Start Picture Test to determine if the problem is

caused by the TV. Start Picture Test displays a high definition picture you can examine for flaws or faults.

The problem Try this!

If your Samsung Television is flickering or dimming sporadically, you may need to disable some
of the energy efficiency features. Disable Power Saving Mode ( Settings General

Flickering and Dimming

Component Connections/
Screen Color

Eco Solution Power Saving Mode), Ambient Light Detection ( Settings

General Eco Solution Ambient Light Detection), or Motion Lighting ( Settings

General Eco Solution Motion Lighting).

If the color on your Samsung television screen is not correct or the black and white colors are
off, run Start Picture Test ( Settings Support Self Diagnosis Start Picture

Test).

If the test results indicate that the problem is not caused by the TV, do the following:

● Confirm that the video input connectors are connected to the correct external device video
output connectors.

● Check the other connections as well. If the TV is connected to an external device via
a component cable, confirm that the Pb, Pr, and Y jacks are plugged into their proper
connectors.

Screen Brightness

Ghosting, Blurring, or
Juddering

Unwanted Powering Off

Problems Powering On

If the colors on your Samsung TV are correct but just a little too dark or bright, try adjusting
the following settings first.

● Select Settings Picture Expert Settings and adjust the Backlight, Contrast,

Brightness, Sharpness, Color, or Tint (G/R) settings.

If you notice ghosting or blurring on the screen, use the Auto Motion Plus Settings function
( Settings Picture Expert Settings Auto Motion Plus Settings) to resolve
the issue.

If your Samsung TV appears to turn off by itself, try disabling some of the TV's energy efficiency
functions. See if Sleep Timer ( Settings General System Manager Time

Sleep Timer) has been enabled. The Sleep Timer automatically turns the TV off after a

specified period of time. If the Sleep Timer has not been enabled, see if Auto Power Off (

Settings General Eco Solution Auto Power Off) has been enabled and disable it.

If you are having problems powering on your Samsung television, there are a number of things
to check before calling the service department. Confirm that the TV's power cord is connected
correctly at both ends and that the remote control is operating normally. Make sure that the
antenna cable or cable TV cable is firmly connected. If you have a cable or satellite box, confirm
that it is plugged in and turned on.

Unable to find a Channel

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

The picture is distorted.

The color is wrong or
missing.

The color is poor or the
picture is not bright
enough.

If your TV is not connected to a cable or satellite box, run Auto Program ( Settings

Broadcasting Auto Program).

Store displays are all tuned to digital, HD (high definition) channels.

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

Many HD channels are upscaled from SD (Standard Definition) content. Look for a channel that
is broadcasting HD content.

● Cable/Satellite Subscribers: Try HD channels from the channel lineup.

● Air/Cable Antenna Connection: Try HD channels after running the Auto Program function.

Adjust the cable or satellite box's video output resolution to 1080i or 720p.

The compression of video content may cause picture distortions, especially in fast moving
pictures from sports programs and action movies.

If the signal reception is weak or poor, screen distortion may be visible but it is not a
malfunction.

Mobile phones used close to the TV (within 3.2 ft) may cause noise on analog and digital
channels.

If you’re using a Component connection, make sure that the Component cables are connected
to the correct jacks. Incorrect or loose connections may cause color problems or a blank screen.

Go to Picture and then adjust the Picture Mode, Brightness, Sharpness, and Color settings.

See if Power Saving Mode ( Settings General Eco Solution Power Saving

Mode) has been enabled.

Try resetting the picture. ( Settings Picture Expert Settings Reset Picture)

There is a dotted line on
the edge of the screen.

The picture is black and
white.

Change Picture Size Settings to 16:9 Standard.

If you are using AV, analog equipment, disconnect the adapter from the Component (Blue)
input jack on the TV and connect it to the AV In (Yellow) input jack.

" If the test picture does not appear or there is noise or distortion, the TV may have a problem. Contact Samsung’s Call Center

for assistance.

" If the test picture is displayed properly, there may be a problem with an external device. Please check the connections.

" If the problem persists, check the signal strength or refer to the external device’s user manual.

The problem Try this!

There is no sound or the
sound is too low at maximum
volume.

The picture is good but there
is no sound.

No sound is heard.

The speakers are making an
odd sound.

Check the volume control of the device (cable or satellite box, DVD, Blu-ray, etc.)
connected to your TV.

Set Settings Sound Sound Output to TV Speaker.

If you are using an external device, check the device’s audio output option. (For example,
you may need to change your cable box’s audio option to HDMI if the box connected to your
TV is using an HDMI cable.)

To listen to computer sound, connect an external speaker to the computer’s audio output
connector.

If your TV has a headphone jack, make sure there is nothing plugged into it.

Reboot the connected device by disconnecting and then reconnecting the device’s power
cable.

Check whether the Digital Output Audio Format is set to Dolby Digital+ in

Settings Sound Expert Settings Digital Output Audio Format. If you are using a

receiver that does not support Dolby Digital Plus, you will hear no sound when you select

Dolby Digital+.

Make sure that the audio cable is connected to the correct audio output connector on the
external device.

The most common wireless technology, 802.11g (wireless-G), operates at a frequency of

2.4 GHz. This frequency is widely used by many cordless phones, microwave ovens, baby
monitors, garage doors, and other wireless devices. Reduce interference by not using
or turning off wireless devices that use the 2.4 GHz frequency. Instead, use devices that
communicate via the 5.0 GHz frequency.

Check the network connection status ( Settings General Network

Network Status).

If the TV is not connected to a network, connect it to a network.

The upgrade stops if you already have the latest software version.
