Important Warranty Information Regarding
Television Format Viewing
✎
See the warranty card for more information on warranty terms.
Wide screen format PDP Displays (with 16:9 aspect ratios, the 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, with the images constantly in motion. Displaying
stationary graphics and images on the screen, such as the dark sidebars on non-expanded
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 crawls, video
game displays, station logos, web sites or computer graphics and patterns, should be limited
as described above for all televisions. Displaying stationary images for more than 5% of total
viewing time can cause uneven aging of your PDP display and leave subtle, but permanent
burned-in ghost images in the PDP picture. To avoid this, vary the programming and images,
and primarily display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars. On PDP
models that offer picture sizing features, use these controls to view different formats as a full
screen picture.
Be careful in the selection of television formats you use for viewing and the amount of time you
view them. Uneven PDP aging as a result of format selection and use, as well as burned in
images, are not covered by your Samsung limited warranty.

Important User Information
•
Screen Image retention
Do not display a still image (such as that from a video game) on the plasma display panel for
more than a few minutes. Still images can cause screen image retention (burn in). 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 TV may become hot after long periods of use as heat dissipates from
the panel through the vent hole in the upper part of the TV. This is normal and does not
indicate any defect or operational failure of unit.
However, children should be prevented from touching the upper part of the TV.
•
The TV is making a ‘cracking’ noise.
•
Cell Defects
The PDP uses a panel consisting of 2,360,000(HD-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°F (5°C)
•
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 the borders on the left, right, top, or bottom of the screen.
Playing a DVD or a game console may have a similar effect. Damage
caused by the above effect is not covered by the warranty.
•
After-images on the Screen.
The PDP uses a panel consisting of 2,360,000(HD-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.
•
Warranty
Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.
Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.
•
Caution
The glass screen of your PDP TV can break if you accidently drop the TV. Handle
the TV with care. When moving the TV, always have two or more people pick it
up and carry it as a safety precaution. Do not lay the TV flat on its face or back.
(Your) Samsung Plasma TV is a high quality television that has been carefully packaged to
protect the integrity of its glass panel and component parts during shipment. It is, nonetheless,
a fragile piece of electronics that requires careful handling. Refrain from putting undue stress
on any part of the packaging when shipping or unpacking the TV. Use care when installing the
TV. Avoid placing the TV in a location where it may be struck, exposed to sharp impacts, or
fall. Panel breakage caused by a fall or impact strike is not covered under the manufacturer’s
warranty.
