Important Warranty Information

Regarding Television Format Viewing

Wide screen format PDP 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 side-bars on nonexpanded 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 PDP Displays that leave subtle, but permanent burned-in

ghost images in the PDP picture. To avoid this, vary the programming and images,

and primarily display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark

bars.

On PDP 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 used for viewing. Uneven PDP aging as a

result of format selection and use, as well as burned-in images, are not covered by your Samsung

limited warranty.

User Instructions

Screen Image retention

Do not display a still image (such as on a video game) on the plasma display panel for more than

several minutes as it can cause screen image retention. This image retention is also known as

“screen burn”. To avoid such image retention, refer to page 53 of this manual to reduce the

degree of brightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.

Altitude

The PDP will not operate normally at altitudes above 6500 ft.

Heat on the top of the PDP TV

The top side of the product may be hot after long periods of use as heat dissipates from the panel

through the vent hole in the upper part of the product.

This is normal and does not indicate any defect or operation failure of the product.

However, children should be prevented from touching the upper part of the product.

The product is making a ‘cracking’ noise.

A ‘cracking’ noise may occur when the product contracts or expands due to a change of

surrounding environment such as temperature or humidity. This is normal and not a defect of the

unit.

Cell Defects

The PDP uses a panel consisting of 1,230,000(SD-level) to 3,150,000(HD-level) pixels which

require sophisticated technology to produce. However, there may be few bright or dark pixels on

the screen. These pixels will have no impact on the performance of the product.

Avoid operating the TV at temperatures below 5°C(41°F)

A still image displayed too long may cause permanent damage to the PDP Panel.

Watching the PDP TV in 4:3 format for a long period of time may leave

traces of borders displayed on the left, right and center of the screen caused

by the difference of light emission on the screen.

Playing a DVD or a game console may cause similar effect to the screen.

Damages caused by the above effect are not covered by the Warranty.

Afterimage on the Screen.

Displaying still images from Video games and PC for longer than a certain period of time may

produce partial afterimages.

To prevent this effect, reduce the ‘brightness’ and ‘contrast’ when displaying still images for a

long time.

Warranty

Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.

Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.

Installation

Be sure to contact an authorized service center when installing your set in a location with heavy

dust, high or low temperatures, high humidity, and chemical substances, or where it will be

operated for 24 hours continuously such as an airport, train station, etc.

Failure to do so may cause serious damage to your set. 3

CableCARD and Digital Cable Ready TVs

CableCARD and Digital Cable Ready TVs are the products of a new digital cable standard.

This new standard is called OpenCable and it is a concerted effort to standardize the digital cable

service network interface in North America. For more information, please refer to www.cablelabs.com.

Digital Cable Ready TVs are equipped with a proper digital cable tuner to receive digital cable signals

from your local cable service provider. They are also designed to work with digital CableCARD

modules (PCMCIA card modules called CableCARDs). These PCMCIA card modules or CableCARDs

will be provided by your local cable service provider after a proper subscription process.

The provided CableCARD from your local cable service provider needs to be inserted into the

CableCARD slot of a Digital Cable Ready TV. Please refer to page 25 for how to insert the

CableCARD.

A digital set-top box which used to be provided by the cable service provider is no longer needed

with Digital Cable Ready TVs and CableCARDs.

When the CableCARD is inserted into the slot, the TV screen will show a message that CableCARD

is inserted and necessary data such as channel information or subscription information will be

downloaded from your digital cable service provider. When you insert CableCARD for the first time,

this process may take few minutes depending on the amount of data your cable provider needs to send.

During this process, the digital cable service provider or CableCARD may display messages

on the TV screen to help or give you further information.

Please contact your local cable provider for more information on service availability and how to

acquire a CableCARD.

Notes

•This television receiver supports the copy protection system regulated by DTLA (Digital Transmission

Licensing Administrator). It should be noted that copy protected content may not be viewable

depending on your particular connections.

•Some channels may be scrambled depending on your cable service provider.

When you tune to these channels, no screen or a still screen may appear. In order to view the

screen properly, you have to go through a subscription process after contacting your service

provider. It will take several minutes to update the channel information depending on your cable

service provider.

1. Is the antenna I use for existing TV reception good enough for DTV?

Over-the-air (OTA) digital TV broadcasting uses the same channels as analog TV and works well with

many existing TV antennas. However, DTV broadcast channel assignments are different than analog

channels. You should find out whether your local DTV broadcasts are on VHF (channels 2-13) or UHF

(channels 14-69) to see if you need a different antenna.

If your DTV channels are on UHF and you already get good UHF reception, your present antenna may

work fine. The same holds true for VHF DTV reception. Note that in some markets, both VHF and UHF

channels are used for DTV broadcasts.

You can find out the latest DTV channel assignments for your area by browsing selected Internet web

sites such as www.titantv.com, www.10000watts.com, and www.fcc.gov.

2. How difficult is it to receive DTV signals indoors?

This depends on whether your local DTV stations are running full power or not and how close your

location is to the transmission tower. DTV receivers do not require as much signal as analog TV

receivers to produce high-quality images and sound.

Once the DTV signal level exceeds a certain threshold at the receiver, the digital video and audio data

is decoded at the same quality it was originally encoded for broadcast. This is a big advantage for

DTV over analog TV - there is no noise, ghosting, static, or scratchy audio.

3. How can I connect an antenna in my townhouse, co-operative apartment, condominium, or

apartment?

The Federal Communications Commission's OTARD Rule (part of the Telecommunications Act of 1996)

allows residents of condominiums, townhouse, or members of neighborhood associations to put up

outside antennas for reception of broadcast TV signals as long as those antennas are not located in

common areas and are no more than 12' in height.

Residents of rental units (apartments, etc.) are not covered by the OTARD rules and will have to use

indoor antennas to receive DTV broadcasts. It is possible that the landlord of an apartment complex

can provide broadcast DTV signals via a master TV antenna system to each apartment.

4. Can I connect my DTV set-top receiver to my cable TV service?

Cable TV systems use a different method for transmitting digital TV programs that is currently

incompatible with broadcast DTV set-top receivers. So you will still need to use an outdoor or indoor

antenna to receive OTA broadcast DTV programs.

The good news is that you won't have to pay a monthly or per-program charge to watch OTA DTV and

HDTV programs. They're free, unlike subscription satellite TV or premium cable TV. All you need is an

antenna and a DTV set-top receiver to enjoy clear, sharp widescreen images and high-quality audio.

Connecting a Digital Audio System

There are many types of digital audio systems on the market today.

A simplified illustration of an audio system is shown below. For more information, see your

audio system owner’s manual.

If your audio system has a coaxial digital audio input, connect to the “COAXIAL” output jack

on the TV.

If your audio system has a optical digital audio input, connect to the “OPTICAL“ output jack

on the TV.

Be certain to remove the black cover from the optical output before inserting the cable.

If your system has both coaxial and optical digital audio inputs, SAMSUNG recommends

you use the optical digital output on the TV.

Do not connect both optical and coaxial cables. This may damage your audio system.

• OPTICAL: converts the electric signal into an optical light signal, and transmits it through

glass fibers.

• COAXIAL: The digital audio signal is received through a coaxial copper cable.

Checking the Digital-Signal Strength

Unlike analog channels, which can vary in reception quality from “snowy” to clear, digital (HDTV)

channels have either perfect reception quality or you will not receive them at all. So, unlike analog

channels, you cannot fine tune a digital channel. You can, however, adjust your antenna to improve

the reception of available digital channels.

1Press the MENU button.

Press the ▲or ▼button to select “Channel”, then press

the ENTER button.

2Press the ▲or ▼button to select “Signal Strength”,

then press the ENTER button.

If the signal strength meter indicates that the signal

is weak, physically adjust your antenna to increase

the signal strength.

Continue to adjust the antenna until you find the

best position with the strongest signal.

5At this point, one of the TV-Ratings is selected.

Press the ENTER button. Depending on your existing

setup, a symbol will be selected.

(Blank = Unblocked, = Blocked)

While “ ” is selected, press the ENTER button to

block or unblock the category.

To select a different TV-Rating, press the ▲or ▼

button and then repeat the process.

Note 1: The TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14 and TV-MA have additional options.

See the next step to change any of the following sub-ratings:

FV: Fantasy violence

D: Sexually Suggestive Dialog

L: Adult Language

S: Sexual situation

V: Violence

Note 2: The V-Chip will automatically block certain categories that are “more restrictive”.

For example, if you block “TV-Y” category, then TV-Y7 will automatically be blocked.

Similarly, if you block the TV-G category, then all the categories in the “young adult” group will

be blocked (TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14, and TV-MA). The sub-ratings (D, L, S, V) work

together similarly. (See next section.)

6How to set the FV, D, L, S and V sub-ratings.

First, select one of these TV-Ratings: TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14, or TV-MA (See Step 4,

on previous page), and press the √button.

A symbol “ ” will be displayed for each sub-rating.

While “ ” is selected, press the ENTER button to go to a sub rating.

Press ENTER to block the sub rating. To select a different TV-Rating, press the ▲or ▼button

and then repeat the process.

Note: The V-chip will automatically block certain categories that are “More restrictive”.

For example, if you block “L” sub-rating in TV-PG, then the “L” sub-ratings in TV-14 and TV-MA

will automatically be blocked.

7Press the MENU button to clear all the screens. (Or proceed to the next section, and set up

additional restrictions based on the MPAA codes.)

Note

•These categories consist of two separate groups: TV-Y and TV-Y7 (young children through

age 7), and TV-G through TV-MA (everybody else).

The restrictions for these two groups work independently: If a household includes very young

children as well as young adults, the TV guidelines must be set up separately for each age group.

(See next step.)

categories:

While a particular category is selected, press the ENTER button to activate it.

A selected symbol “ ” will be displayed.

Press the ENTER button to block or unblock the category.
