However, there must be no obstacles between the IR extension cable and the external device. The presence of obstacles interferes with the transmission of the remote control signal.

When you use an external device registered with the Universal Remote Control on the Samsung Smart Control, you can use the external device without connecting an IR extension cable. However, if you want to use an external device using Motion Control or Voice Interaction / Voice Control, be sure to connect an IR extension cable.

Before Using 3D Viewing Mode

Availability depends on the specific model and area.

3D Precautions

Warning

- In 3D viewing mode, the screen may flicker under fluorescent lighting (50Hz \~ 60Hz) or three-wave lighting.

If this occurs, turn off the lighting or adjust it to a low level.

- When you switch the picture mode from 3D view, the 3D view mode turns off, and the 3D glasses no longer provide a 3D view.

When you turn off 3D mode, the 3D glasses also turn off in a few moments.

- If you are watching TV with 3D glasses and you lie on your side, the picture may look darker or may not be visible.

- If the 3D glasses are defective or damaged, they cannot be repaired and need to be exchanged for a new pair. The repair service is free of charge within the warranty period. Note that the warranty does not cover damage caused by the user.

- The actual 3D effect may be experienced differently depending on the viewer. The 3D effect may not be experienced by persons who has a large difference of vision between the left and right eyes.

• In 3D viewing mode, watch TV within the recommended distance.

The 3D functionality of the glasses may not work properly if you move out of the recommended range for about 3 seconds or more.

If you stay outside the recommended range, the 3D glasses lose wireless wireless communications with the TV. If this occurs, the 3D display turns off and, a few seconds later the glasses turn off.

- The 3D glasses may not work properly if there are any nearby active 3D devices or electronic or wireless communication devices (for example, a device that uses the 2.4GHz frequency range such as a microwave or AP). If this occurs, move the devices away from the 3D glasses.

- The Samsung Multi View 3D Glasses may not work properly near metal objects or near an electromagnetic field. If this occurs, move the metal objects or the electromagnetic device away from the 3D glasses.

- The vividness of the image may degraded if you watch a 3D movie in a location exposed to direct sunlight or illumination.

- The temples of the 3D glasses do not fold. Do not attempt to fold the temples. You can damage the 3D glasses.

• When watching 3D content for an extended period of time without averting your eyes, the 3D glasses may turn off automatically (applicable to the SSG-3570 only).
• Take off the 3D glasses and put them on again if they do not work in 3D viewing mode first (applicable to the SSG-3570 only).

Caution

Installing an Anti-Theft Kensington Lock

A Kensington Lock is a physical device that can be used to protect the TV against theft. Look for the Kensington slot on the back of the TV. The slot has aicon next to it. To use the lock, wrap the lock cable around an object that is too heavy to carry and then thread it through the TV's Kensington slot. The lock is sold separately.

The method of using a Kensington Lock may differ for each TV model. Refer to the Kensington Lock manual for more information.

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-enabled AP.

Wireless Security Protocols

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.

Read Before Connecting a Computer (Supported Resolutions)

When you connect your TV to a computer, set the computer's video card to one of the standard resolutions listed in the tables below or on the next page. The TV will automatically adjust to the resolution you choose. Note that the optimal and recommended resolution is 1920 x1080.

Choosing a resolution not included in the tables can result in a blank screen or just the power indicator turning on. Refer to the user manual of your graphics card for compatible resolutions.

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

• ARC (Audio Return Channel)

Generally, a separate RCA or optical cable needs to be connected in order for the TV audio to be heard through an AV receiver. With receivers that support ARC, however, digital audio can be transmitted via the HDMI cable only.

• 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.

• 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 standardized 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.
