Frequently Asked Questions - LN37A450 SAMSUNG

How to connect a DVD player to the Samsung LN37A450 TV?

How to adjust the picture for best quality?
Press MENU, select Image, then Mode. Choose Standard or Movie depending on your content. You can also adjust Contrast, Brightness, and Sharpness in the settings. Enable DNle in the image options for optimal quality.
What to do if the remote control does not work?
First check that the TV is turned on. Replace the batteries (AAA type) respecting the polarities. Clean the infrared transmission window of the remote. Make sure no obstacle blocks the sensor on the TV. If the problem persists, restart the TV.
How to automatically memorize channels?

How to connect headphones?
Plug the headphones into the HEADPHONES jack on the left side of the TV. The sound from the speakers is then automatically muted. Use the TV or remote control volume buttons to adjust the headphone volume.
What does the message 'Check cable signal' mean?
This message usually appears when the input source is set to PC and no PC cable is connected or the signal is absent. Check the connection of the VGA or DVI cable between the computer and the TV, and make sure the computer is turned on.
How to mount the TV on a wall?
Use a VESA 200x200 mm compatible wall mount. Follow the mounting instructions provided with the mount. Do not overtighten the screws (max M6). Call a professional for installation to avoid any risk of falling.
What to do if the image appears distorted or black bars appear?
Check that the picture format is set to 16:9 (press the P.SIZE button). If you receive a standard definition signal, the TV may display black bars. Use Wide or Zoom mode to fill the screen. Also make sure the source (set-top box, receiver) is set to the appropriate format.

Important 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 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 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.

Precautions When Displaying a Still Image

A still image may cause permanent damage to the TV screen

  • Do not display a still image on the LCD panel for more than 2 hours as it can cause screen image retention. This image retention is also known as "screen burn". To avoid such image retention, reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.

SAMSUNG LN37A450 - Precautions When Displaying a Still Image - 1

Watching the LCD 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 a similar effect to the screen. Damages caused by the above effect are not covered by the Warranty.

  • 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.
