Digital TV notice

1. Functionalities related to Digital TV (DVB) are only available in countries/areas where DVB-T (MPEG2 and MPEG4 AVC) digital terrestrial signals are broadcasted or where you are able to access to a compatible DVB-C (MPEG2 and MPEG4 AAC) cable-TV service. Please check with your local dealer the possibility to receive DVB-T or DVB-C signal.
2. DVB-T is the DVB European consortium standard for the broadcast transmission of digital terrestrial television and DVB-C is that for the broadcast transmission of digital TV over cable. However, some differentiated features like EPG (Electric Programme Guide), VOD (Video On Demand) and so on, are not included in this specification. So, they cannot be workable at this moment.
3. Although this TV set meets the latest DVB-T and DVB-C standards, as of [August, 2008], the compatibility with future DVB-T digital terrestrial and DVB-C digital cable broadcasts cannot be guaranteed.
4. Depending on the countries/areas where this TV set is used some cable-TV providers may charge an additional fee for such a service and you may be required to agree to terms and conditions of their business.
5. Some Digital TV functions might be unavailable in some countries or regions and DVB-C might not work correctly with some cable service providers.
6. For more information, please contact your local Samsung customer care centre.

The reception quality of TV may be affected due to differences in broadcasting method between the countries. Please check the TV performance in the local SAMSUNG Authorized Dealer, or the Samsung Call Centre whether it can be improved by reconfiguring TV setting or not.

User Instructions

Screen 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, reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.
Heat 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.

The product is making a "cracking" noise.
A "cracking" noise may occur when the product contracts or expands due to a change in the surrounding environment such as temperature or humidity. This is normal and not a defect of the unit.
Cell Defects

The PDP uses a panel consisting of 1,226,880(SD-level) to 6,221,000(FHD-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.

• Avoid operating the TV at temperatures below 41^ (5^)
• A still 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 centre 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.

After-images on the Screen.
Displaying still images from Video games 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.
Warranty

Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention. Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.

Picture Quality	First of all, please perform the Picture Test and confirm that your TV is properly displaying test image.(go to MENU - Support - Self Diagnosis - Picture Test) If the test image is properly displayed, the poor picture may caused by the source or signal.
The TV image does not look as good as it did in the store.	If you have an analogue cable/set top box, upgrade to a digital set top box. Use HDMI or Component cables to deliver SD (Standard definition) picture quality.Cable/Satellite subscribers: Try digital stations from the channel line up.Aerial connection: Try digital stations after performing Auto tuning.Adjust the Cable/Set top box video output resolution to 480p.Make sure you are watching the TV at the minimum recommended distance based on the size and definition of the signal.
The picture is distorted:macroblock error, small block,dots, pixelization	Compression of video contents may cause picture distortion especially in fast moving pictures such as sportsand action movies.Low signal level or bad quality can cause picture distortion. This is not a TV issue.Mobile phones used close to the TV (cca up to 1m) may cause noise in picture on analogue and digital TV.

The picture is black and white.	If you are using an AV composite input, connect the video cable (yellow) to the Green jack of component1 on the TV.
When changing channels, the picture freezes or is distorted or delayed.	If connected with a cable box, please try to reset the cable box. Reconnect the AC cord and wait until the cable box reboots. It may take up to 20 minutes.Set the output resolution of the cable box to 480p.
Sound Quality	First of all, please perform the Sound Test to confirm that your TV audio is properly operating. (go to MENU - Support - Self Diagnosis - Sound Test)If the audio is ok, the sound problem may be caused by the source or signal.
There is no sound or the sound is too low at maximum volume.	Please check the volume of the device (Cable/Sat Box, DVD, Blu-ray etc) connected to your TV.
The picture is good but there is no sound.	If you are using an external device, make sure the audio cables are connected to the correct audio inputon the TV.If you are using an external device, check the device's audio output option (ex. you may need to changecable box's audio option to HDMI when you have a HDMI connected to your TV).Reboot the connected device by reconnecting the device's power cable.
The speakers are making an inappropriate noise.	Check the cable connections. Make sure a video cable is not connected to an audio input.For aerial or cable connections, check the signal strength. Low signal level may cause sound distortion.
No Picture, No Video

Issues Solutions and Explanations

The TV turns off automatically. ·Ensure the Sleep Timer is set to Off in the Time menu. ·Make sure the AC power cord is plugged in securely to the wall outlet and the TV. ·When watching TV from an aerial or cable connection, the TV will turn off after 10 ~ 15 minutes if there is no signal.

There is no picture/video. ·Check cable connections (remove and reconnect all cables connected to the TV and external devices). ·Set your external device's (Cable/Set top Box, DVD, Blu-ray etc) video outputs to match the connections to the TV input. For example, if an external device's output is HDMI, it should be connected to an HDMI input on the TV. ·Make sure your connected devices are powered on. ·Be sure to select the TV's correct source by pressing the SOURCE button on the remote control. ·Reboot the connected device by reconnecting the device's power cable.

Aerial (Air/Cable) Connection

The TV is not receiving all channels. ·Make sure the Aerial cable is connected securely. ·Please try Setup (Initial setup) to add available channels to the channel list. Go to MENU - System - Setup (Initial setup) and wait for all available channels to be stored. ·Verify the Aerial is positioned correctly.

The picture is distorted: macro block error small block, dots, pixelization ·Compression of video contents may cause picture distortion, especially on fast moving pictures such as sports and action movies. ·A low signal can cause picture distortion. This is not a TV issue.

Others

The picture will not display in full screen. ·HD channels will have black bars on either side of the screen when displaying up scaled SD (4:3) contents. ·Black bars on the top and bottom will appear during movies that have aspect ratios different from your TV. ·Adjust the picture size options on your external device or TV to full screen.

Plasma TV is making humming noise. ·Plasma TVs typically make a soft humming sound. This is normal. It's caused by the electrical charges that are used to create the images on the screen. ·If the humming sound is loud, you may have set the brightness on the TV too high. Try setting the brightness lower. ·You can also have loud humming if the back of your Plasma TV is too close to a wall or other hard surface. Also try rerouting your connection cables. ·Improper installation of wall mount can create excessive noise.

Image Retention (Burn In) Issue. ·To minimize the possibility of screen burn, this unit is equipped with Pixel Shift screen burn reduction technology. Pixel Shift lets you set the picture so it moves slightly up and down (Vertical Line) and side to side (Horizontal Dot). The regular, slight movement of the picture reduces screen burn in.

The remote control does not work. ·Replace the remote control batteries with the poles (+/-) in the right direction. ·Clean the sensor's transmission window on the remote. ·Try pointing the remote directly at the TV from 5~6 feet away.

The cable/set top box remote control doesn't turn the TV on or off, or adjust the volume. ·Programme the Cable/Set top box remote control to operate the TV. Refer to the Cable/Set top box user manual for the SAMSUNG TV code.

A "Mode Not Supported" message appears. ·Check the supported resolution of the TV, and adjust the external device's output resolution accordingly.

There is a plastic smell from the TV. ·This smell is normal and will dissipate over time.

The TV Signal Information is unavailable in the Self Diagnosis Test menu. ·This function is only available with digital channels from an Aerial / RF / Coax connection.

Issues Solutions and Explanations

TV is tilted to the right or left side. Remove the stand base from the TV and reassemble it.

There are difficulties assembling the stand base. Make sure the TV is placed on a flat surface. If you can not remove the screws from the TV, please use magnetized screw driver.

The Channel menu is grey out (unavailable). The Channel menu is only available when the TV source is selected.

Your settings are lost after 30 minutes or every time the TV is turned off. If the TV is in the Store Demo mode, it will reset audio and picture settings every 30 minutes. Change the settings from Store Demo mode to Home Use mode in the Setup (Initial setup) procedure. Press the SOURCE button to select TV mode, and go to MENU → System → Setup (Initial setup)→ ENTER.

You have intermittent loss of audio or video. Check the cable connections and reconnect them. Loss of audio or video can be caused by using overly rigid or thick cables. Make sure the cables are flexible enough for long term use. If mounting the TV to the wall, we recommend using cables with 90 degree connectors.

You see small particles when you look closely at the edge of the frame of the TV. This is part of the product's design and is not a defect.

You turned the TV off 45 minutes ago, and it turned on again. It is normal. The TV operates the OTA (Over The Aerial) function itself to upgrade firmware downloaded whilst your watching TV.

The message "Scrambled Signal" or "Weak or No Signal" appears. If you are using a CAM CARD (CI/CI+), check that it is installed into the common interface slot. If there is still a problem, pull the CAM CARD out of the TV and insert it into the slot again.

There are recurrent picture/sound issues. Check and change the signal/source.

A reaction may occur between the rubber cushion pads on the base stand and the top finish of some furniture. To prevent this, use felt pads on any surface of the TV that comes in direct contact with furniture.

The message "This file may not be playable properly." appears. This may appear because of high bit rate of content. Content generally will play but could experience some playability issue.

You can keep your TV as optimum condition to upgrade the latest firmware on web site (www.samsung.com Support Downloads) by USB.
