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.

Connecting to an Aerial or Cable Television Network
Connect the aerial or network input cable to the 75
coaxial socket.
To view television channels correctly, a signal must be received by the set from one of the sources: an outdoor aerial, cable television network, or satellite network. If you are using an indoor aerial, you may need to adjust it when tuning your television until you obtain a picture that is both sharp and clear.

Connecting to the COMPONENT Input
Connect component video cables to component connector (Y, PB, PR) on the rear of your television and the other ends to corresponding component video out connectors on the DTV receiver or DVD player.
The Y, PB and PR connectors on your component devices (DTV receiver or DVD player) are sometimes labeled Y, B-Y and R-Y or Y, Cb and Cr.
Connect RCA audio cables to AUDIO (L/R) IN on the rear of your television and the other ends to corresponding audio out connectors on the DTV receiver or DVD player.

Connecting to the SCART Input/Output
Connect SCART cable to an appropriate external A/V device such as a VCR, DVD player, decoder, satellite receiver, video game device, or video disc player.
- The EXT1 (RGB) connector is used for equipment with an RGB output, such as a video game device or video disc player.
- The EXT2 (AV) connector is used for the audio/video output of current television programme.

Supports connections between HDMI-connection-enabled AV devices (Set-Top Boxes, DVD players, AV receivers and digital TVs).
No additional Audio connection is needed for an HDMI to HDMI connection.
What is HDMI?
“High Definition Multimedia interface” allows the transmission of high definition digital video data and multiple channels of digital audio (5.1 channels). The HDMI/DVI terminal supports DVI connection to an extended device with the appropriate cable (not supplied). The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size, has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed, and supports multi - channel digital audio.
You should use the DVI-to-HDMI cable or DVI-HDMI Adapter for the connection, and the AUDIO (L/R) connector on DVI for sound output. When connecting this product via HDMI or DVI to a Set Top Box, DVD Player or Games Console etc, make sure that it has been set to a compatible video output mode as shown in the table below. Failure to observe this may result in picture distortion, image breakup or no picture.

COMMON INTERFACE
PCMCIA Slot supports the DVB Common Interface (DVB-CI) standard. This connection is provided for future expansion of your Samsung DTV set allowing the installation of DVB-CI compatible peripherals, for example a DVB-CI module to support pay TV services. The availability of DVB-CI peripherals varies country by country. Please contact your retailer for information about the
availability of DVB-CI peripherals in your region.

2 Install two AAA size batteries.
Make sure to match the “+” and “–” ends of the batteries with the diagram inside the
