an additional fee for such a service and you may be required to agree to terms and conditions of

5Some Digital TV functions might be unavailable in some countries or regions and DVB-C might not
work correctly with some cable service providers.
6For more information, please contact your local Samsung customer care centre.
The reception quality of this product may be affected due to differences in broadcasting method
between the countries. Please check the product performance in the local SAMSUNG Authorized
