Important Warranty Information
Regarding Television Format Viewing
User Instructions
Wide screen format PDP 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 PDP Displays that 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 and duration of television formats used for viewing. 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.
Screen Image retention
Do not display a still image (such as on a video game or when hooking up a PC to this PDP) 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, refer to page 44 of this manual to reduce the
degree of brightness and contrast of this screen when displaying a still image.
Cell Defect
The plasma display panel consists of fine cells. Although the panels are produced with more than 99.9
percent active cells, there may be some cells that do not produce light or remain lit.
Altitude
The PDP will not operate normally at altitudes above 6500 ft.
Warranty
Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.
Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.
