Important
WarrantyInformation
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, shou]d 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 Iogos, 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.

ScreenImageretention
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.

Heatonthetopof thePDPTV
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.

Theproduct
is makinga '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.

CellDefects
The PDP uses a panel consisting of 1,230,OOO(SD-level) to 3,150,OO0(HD-leve]) 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.

AvoidoperatingtheTV at temperatures
below5°C(41°F)

A stillimagedisplayed
toolongmaycausepermanent
damageto thePDPPanel.
Watching the PDP TV in 4:3 format for a long period of time may leave
traces of borders displayed on the ]eft, 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
ontheScreen.
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.

CableCARD
andDigital
CableReady
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 CabJeCARDs). 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
acquire a CableCARD.

and how to

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.

Q&A
1. _sthe antenna _use {er existin9 I"V receptien geod eneughfer DI"V?
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 2-131 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 wwv,,,.titantv.com, www. l O000wans.com, and www.fcc.gov.

2o HowdifJiceJtisit te receiveDTVsigeaJsindeers?
This depends on whether your local DTV stations are running full power or not and how dose 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.

The Federal Communications Commission's OTARD Rule (part of the Telecommunications Act of 19961
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.

4o{an Jcennectmy DTVset°tepreceiverte my cnbJeTV 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. AI! you need is an
antenna and a DTV set-top receiver to enjoy clear, sharp widescreen images and high-quality audio.
