I 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.

IUser Instructions
oScreen 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 32 of this manual to reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.
oAltitude
The PDP can only operate normally at heights under 6500ft.
oHeat on the top of the Plasma 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.
oThe 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 adefect of the unit.
oCell Defects
The PDP uses a panel consisting of 1 ,230,OOO(SD-level) to 3, 150,OOO(HD-level) pixels which require sophisticated
technology
to produce. However, there may be a few bright or dark pixels on the screen. These pixels will have no impact
on the performance of the product.
oAvoid operating the TV at temperatures below 5°C (41°F)
oAstill image displayed too long may cause permanent damage to the PDP Panel.
Watching the Plasma 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 effects to the screen.
Damages caused by the above effect are not covered by the Warranty.
oAfter-images on the Screen.
Displaying still images from Video games and PC for longer than a certain period of time may produce partial after-images.
To prevent this effect, reduce the 'brightness' and 'contrast' when displaying still images for a long time.
oWarranty
Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.
Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.

What is HDMI?
• HDMI, or 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 DVI 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 ISatellite receiver (Set-Top Box) has adifferent
back panel configuration.
;...
The TV may not output sound and pictures may be displayed with abnormal color
when DVD Player or Cable Box ISatellite 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 HDMIIN 2jack and the audio cables
to the DVI IN (HDMI2) [R-AUDIO-L] jacks on the back of the TV. If this happens,
contact the company that provided the DVD Player or Cable Box ISatellite 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.
This connection can only be made if there is a OVI Output jack on the external device.

What is OPTICAL?
• An optical cable converts an electric signal into an optical light signal, and transmits
it through glass fibers. S/PoIF is atransmission system of digital audio in the form of
alight wave that uses a glass conductor.
~ 5.1 CH audio is possible when the TV is connected to an external device
supporting 5.1 CH.
~ Each Digital Audio System has adifferent back panel configuration.
~ When the receiver (home theater) is set to On, you can hear sound output from
the TV's Optical jack. When the TV is displaying aoTV(air) signal, the TV will send
out 5.1 channel sound to the Home theater receiver. When the source is a digital
component such as a OVO and is connected to the TV via HoMI, only 2 channel
sound will be heard from the Home Theater receiver.
If you want to hear 5.1 channel audio, connect the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
(OPTICAL) jack on the oVD player or Cable/Satellite Box directly to an Amplifier or
Home Theater, not the TV.
