Audio Delay
This setting helps correct timing mismatches between the audio and video tracks when you are watching TV and
listening to audio through a digital audio device. Enabling the feature displays a slide bar that you can use to adjust
the delay by up to 250ms.
•Dolby Digital Comp
Some digital TV programmes provide 5.1-channel Dolby audio. This TV converts Dolby audio to stereo audio so that
it can play the sound through the TV’s speakers. There are two methods to choose from. RF is for better sound at
lower volumes, and Line is for higher volumes.
•Auto Volume
When you change channels, video sources, or content, Auto Volume automatically adjusts the TV's volume level so
that the volume level remains the same for all sources. For example, if you switch from a streaming video application
to a Blu-ray player or a favourite TV channel, Auto Volume can modify the volume up to 12db to equalise the sound.
The Auto Volume function has two settings: Normal and Night. Normal applies a normal level of volume adjustment.
Night applies a slightly lower volume level and is ideal for late-night TV viewing. If you want to use the volume control
of a connected source device to control the sound, deactivate the Auto Volume function. When you use the Auto
Volume function with a source device, the device's volume control may not function properly.

The TV is hot.
Watching TV for an extended period of time causes the panel to generate heat. The heat from
the panel is dissipated through internal vents running along the top of the TV. The bottom,
however, may feel hot to the touch after extended use. Children watching TV need constant
adult supervision to prevent them from touching the TV. This heat, however, is not a defect and
does not affect the TV's functionality.
The picture won’t display in
full screen.
HD channels will have black bars on either side of the screen when displaying upscaled SD (4:3)
content.
Black bars will appear at the top and bottom of the screen when you watch movies that have
aspect ratios different from your TV.
Adjust the picture size options on your external device or set the TV to full screen.
The "Mode Not Supported"
message appears.
The output resolution of the attached device is not supported by the TV. Check the supported
resolutions of the TV and adjust the external device’s output resolution accordingly.
The Subtitle item in the TV
menu is grayed out.
You cannot select the Subtitle menu if you have selected a source connected to the TV via HDMI
or Component connections. To view subtitle, turn on the external device's subtitle function.
The TV smells of plastic. This smell is normal and will dissipate over time.
The Signal Information
option under Self Diagnosis
isn't activated.
Verify that the current channel is a digital channel.
The Signal Information is only available for digital channels.
The TV is tilted to the side. Remove the base stand from the TV and reassemble it.
The Broadcasting option has
been deactivated.
Broadcasting is only available when the Source is set to TV.
The Broadcasting menu cannot be accessed while watching TV using a cable box or satellite
receiver.
The settings are lost after 5
minutes or every time the TV
is turned off.
If the Use Mode is set to Store Demo, the TV's audio and video settings are automatically reset
every 5 minutes.
Change the Use Mode (Support → Use Mode) to Home Use.
There is an intermittent loss
of audio or video.
Check the cable connections and reconnect them.
Loss of audio or video can be caused by using overly rigid or thick cables.
Make sure the cables are flexible enough for long term use. If you are mounting the TV to a wall,
we recommend using cables with 90-degree connectors.
There are small particles on
the TV's bezel. This is part of the product’s design and is not a defect.
The PIP menu is not
available. PIP functionality is only available when you are using an HDMI or Component source.

The TV is making a popping
noise.
The expansion and contraction of the TV's outer casing may cause a popping noise. This does
not indicate a product malfunction. The TV is safe to use.

Your TV utilises high-speed switching circuits and high levels of electrical current. Depending on
the TV's brightness level, the TV may seem slightly noisier than a conventional TV.

Wireless Internet Precautions
•This TV supports the IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n communication protocols. Samsung recommends using IEEE 802.11n.
Video files stored on a device connected to the TV via DLNA may not play back smoothly.
•To use wireless Internet, the TV must be connected to a wireless router or modem. If the wireless router supports
DHCP, the TV can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network.
•Select a channel that is not currently in use for the wireless router. If the channel set for the wireless router is
currently being used by another device, the result is usually interference and/or a communications failure.
•Most wireless networks have an optional security system. To enable a wireless network's security system, you need
to create a security key using characters and numbers. This security key is then needed to connect to a security-

•The TV only supports the following wireless network security protocols and is unable to connect to non-certified
wireless routers:
•Authentication Modes: WEP, WPAPSK, WPA2PSK
•Encryption Types: WEP, TKIP, AES
•In compliance with the newest Wi-Fi certification specifications, Samsung TVs do not support WEP or TKIP security
encryption in networks running in the 802.11n mode.
•If the wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect the TV to your network using PBC
(Push Button Configuration) or a PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS automatically configures the SSID and
WPA key settings.

Glossary
•480i/ 480p/ 720p/ 1080i/ 1080p
Generally refers to the number of effective scanning lines that determines the screen's resolution. There are two
scanning methods: interlaced and progressive.
– Scanning
Sequential projection of pixels to form images. The higher the number of pixels, the clearer and more vivid the
images.
– Progressive
A sequential scanning method that scans every line, one after another.
– Interlaced
A staggered scanning method that scans every other line until the end of the screen and then fills in the
remaining lines.
Example) If the number of horizontal scan lines is 480i
Scans 240 lines from start to finish and then scans the remaining 240 lines for a total of 480 lines.
* General differences between 480i and 480p are as follows:
480i 480p
Horizontal Frequency 15.75Khz 31.5Khz
FPS 30 60
Lines on Screen 480 480
•DVI (Digital Visual Interface)
Connecting the TV's DVI connector to a computer's DVI connector via an HDMI-to-DVI cable lets you use the TV as a
computer monitor. However, HDMI-to-DVI cables deliver video signals only. You must connect a set of speakers to the
computer using a separate cable to hear the computer's audio.
•HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)
HDMI is a method of transmitting both video and audio signals via a single cable.

Other Information
•Dynamic versus Static IP Addresses
If the network requires a dynamic IP address, use an ADSL modem or router that supports the Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Modems and routers that support DHCP automatically provide the IP address, subnet
mask, gateway and DNS values the TV needs to access the Internet, so they do not have to be entered manually. Most
home networks use a dynamic IP address.
If the network requires a static IP address, enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values manually when
setting up the network connection. To get the IP address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS values, contact your Internet
Service Provider (ISP).
If the network requires a static IP address, use an ADSL modem that supports DHCP. ADSL modems that support
DHCP also allow static IP addresses.
•Ethernet
Ethernet is a LAN (Local Area Network) that uses coaxial cables standardised by the IEEE.
•Component Connection
Component connections are mostly used for game consoles and transmit the video signal by splitting it into a luminance
signal (Y) and two colour signals (Pb and Pr). The connector is marked as [Component IN]_(Pr, Pb, Y) on the back of
the TV. On some devices, it is sometimes marked as Cr, Cb, Y. Cb and Cr are the digital conversions of the Pb and Pr
signals.
The connectors are normally colour-coded red (R), blue (B), and green (G) and offer the best picture quality possible for
an analogue connection.
