Issues

Solutions and Explanations

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 will appear on the top and bottom of the screen when you watch 

movies that have aspect ratios different from your TV.

•  Adjust the picture size option on your external device or change the TV to full 

screen.

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. Make sure you insert them with the plus 

and minus ends in the correct direction.

•  Clean the transmission window located on the top of the remote control.
•  Try pointing the remote control directly at the TV from 5~6 feet away.

The cable/set top box remote 
control does not turn the TV on 
or off, or adjust the volume.

•  Program 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.
