lImportant Warranty information Regarding Television Format Viewing
Wide screen format LCD 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
sidebars 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 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 LCD Displays that leave subtle, but permanent burned-in ghost images in the LCD picture. To avoid this, vary the
programming and images, and primarily display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars.
On LCD 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 LCD aging as a result of format selection and use, as
well as burned-in images, are not covered by your Samsung limited warranty.

>- Using the remote control with the ON/OFF @ light button set to On will reduce the
battery usage time.
If the remote control doesn't work, check the following:
1. Is the TV power on?
2. Are the plus and minus ends of the batteries reversed?
3. Are the batteries drained?
4. Is there a power outage or is the power cord unplugged?
5. Is there a special fluorescent light or neon sign nearby?

Connections
Connecting VHF and UHFAntennas
If your antenna has a set of leads that look like the diagram to the right, see "Antennas
with 300 OFlat Twin Leads" below.
If your antenna has one lead that looks like the diagram to the right, see "Antennas with
75 ORound Leads".
If you have two antennas, see "Separate VHF and UHF Antennas".
Antennas with 300 _ Flat Twin Leads
If you are using an off-air antenna (such as a roof antenna or "rabbit ears") that has 300
Otwin flat leads, follow the directions below.
1. Place the wires from the twin leads under the screws on a 300-75 [3 adapter (not
supplied). Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws.
2. Plug the adaptor into the ANT IN terminal on the back of the TV.
Antennas with 75 _ Round Leads
1. Plug the antenna lead into the ANT IN terminal on the back of the TV.
Separate VHF and UHF Antennas
If you have two separate antennas for your TV (one VHF and one UHF), you must combine the two antenna signals before
connecting the antennas to the TV. This procedure requires an optional combiner-adaptor (available at most electronics
shops).
1. Connect both antenna leads to the combiner.
2, Plug the combiner into the ANT IN terminal on the bottom of the rear panel.
Connecting Cable TV
To connect to a cable TV system, follow the instructions below.
Cable without a Cable Box
Ii Plug the incoming cable into the ANT IN terminal on the back of the TV.
>_ Because this TV is cable-ready, you do not need a cable box to view
unscrambled cable channels.
Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles AI Channels
1. Find the cable that is connected to the ANT OUT terminal on your cable box.
>- This terminal might be labeled "ANT OUT", "VHF OUT" or simply, "OUT".
2, Connect the other end of this cable to the ANT IN terminal on the back of the TV.
ANT IN ANT OUT_

Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles Some Channels
If your cable box descrambles only some
channels (such as premium channels),
follow the instructions below. You will need
a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch and
four lengths of RF cable. (These items are
available at most electronics stores.)
1. Find and disconnect the cable that is
connected to the ANT IN terminal on
your cable box.
>- This terminal might be labeled
"ANT IN", "VHF IN" or simply, "IN".
2. Connect this cable to a two-way
splitter.
3, Connect an RF cable between the
OUTPUT terminal on the splitter and
the IN terminal on the cable box.

position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switch to "B", you will need to tune your TV to the cable box's
output channel, which is usually channel 3 or 4.)

What is HDMI?
°HDMl(High-Definition Multimedia Interface), is an interface that enables the
transmission of digital audio and video signals using a single cable.
°The difference between HDMI and DVl is that the HDMI device is smaller in size and
has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed.
"_ Each DVD Player or Cable Box/Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) has a different back
panel configuration.
The TV may not output sound and pictures may be displayed with abnormal color when
DVD players/Cable Boxes/Satellite receivers supporting HDMI versions older than 1.3
are connected. When connecting an older HDMI cable and there is no sound, connect
the HDMI cable to the HDMI IN 2 jack and the audio cables to the DVl IN (HDMI2)
[R-AUDIO-L] jacks on the back of the TV. If this happens, contact the company that
provided the DVD player/Cable Box/Satellite receiver to confirm the HDMI version, then
request an upgrade.
"_ HDMI cables that are not 1.3 may cause annoying flicker or no screen display.
