Try making sure you have connected to the correct jacks.
For example, if you use the Component jacks, labeled Pb, Pr, and Y, to connect your TV and video
source, make sure you have connected the blue Pb jack on the video source to the blue Pb jack on
the TV, the red Pr jack on the source to the red Pr jack on the TV.
Screen Brightness
If you find that the colors on your Samsung TV are correct but just a little too dark or bright, there
are some settings you should check before calling for a repair.

Backlight, Contrast, Brightness, Sharpness, Color, Tint and so on.
Go in to “Picture” on user Menu

Trouble Powering On
Before Turn on check red light on the right or left bottom of your TV. Press power on button on
TV or remote and it will blink about 5 times before turning on.
If you find that you are having trouble powering on your Samsung television, there are a number of
things to check before making a call to the service department.
y
If you happen to be using the TV as a monitor and the stand-by light only blinks for a few seconds when
you press the power button, your PC is in sleep mode. To take your PC out of sleep mode, press a key on
your keyboard or move the mouse. Then try turning your TV on.
If you’re sure your power cord, remote control, and PC are functioning properly, you may be having
a cable issue. If you have a cable or satellite box, your TV may appear to be off because the cable or
satellite box is not outputting a signal. To test the signal output of your cable or satellite box, press the
guide or info button on the cable or satellite box remote control. If the screen displays the guide or info
data, the problem is caused by the box.

If you have any trouble to assemble the stand though you refer to “Install the Stand” mentioned
at this manual, visit www.samsung.com/spsn then check “2011 Stand Assembly” on “Top 7 TV
Troubleshooting Tips”.
