Important Warranty Information
Regarding Television Format
Viewing
Standard screen format televisions (4:3, the aspect ratio of the screen width to height) are
primarily designed to view standard format full-motion video. The images displayed on
them should primarily be in the standard 4:3 ratio format and constantly moving.
Displaying stationary graphics and images on screen, such as the dark top and bottom
letterbox bars (wide screen pictures), should be limited to no more than 15% of the total
television viewing per week.
Wide screen format televisions (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 constantly moving. Displaying stationary
graphics and images on screen, such as the dark side-bars on non-expanded standard
format television video and programming, should be limited to no more than 15% 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 any stationary images that exceed
the above guidelines can cause uneven aging of picture tubes (CRTs) that leave subtle, but
permanent burned-in ghost images in the television picture. To avoid this, vary the
programming and images, and primarily display full screen moving images, not stationary
patterns or dark bars. On television models that offer picture sizing features, use these
controls to view the different formats as a full screen picture.
Be careful in the selection and duration of television formats used for viewing. Uneven CRT
aging as a result of format selection and use, as well as other burned-in images, is not
covered by your Samsung limited warranty.

next page.
If you have two antennas, see “Separate VHF and
UHF Antennas” on the next page.
Antennas with 300-ohm Flat Twin Leads
If you are using an off-air antenna (such as a roof antenna or “rabbit ears”) that has
300-ohm twin flat leads, follow the directions below.

Memorizing the Channels
Your TV can memorize and store all of the available channels for both “off-air” (antenna)
and cable channels. After the available channels are memorized, use the CH and CH
buttons to scan through the channels. This eliminates the need to change channels by
entering the channel digits. There are three steps for memorizing channels: selecting a
broadcast source, memorizing the channels (automatic) and adding and deleting channels
(manual).
Selecting the Video Signal Source
Before your television can begin memorizing the available channels, you must specify

Extra Sound Settings (Auto Volume,
Pseudo Stereo, or Turbo Plus)
The following sound settings can be adjusted to suit your personal preferences
• Auto Volume
Each broadcasting station has its own signal conditions, which can make it necessary
to adjust the volume every time the channel is changed. “Auto Volume” lets you
automatically adjust the volume of the desired channel by lowering the sound output
when the modulation signal is high or by raising the sound output when the
modulation signal is low.
• Pseudo Stereo
“Pseudo Stereo” converts a monaural sound signal into two identical left and right
channels. Once the “Pseudo Stereo” is set to “On” or “Off”, the setting applies to the
sound effects such as “Standard”, “Music”, “Movie” and “Speech”.
• Turbo Plus
“Turbo Plus” emphasizes the bass and treble frequencies to add fullness to the sound.

Viewing Closed Captions
(On-Screen Text Message)
Your TV decodes and displays the closed captions that are broadcast with certain TV shows.
These captions are usually subtitles for the hearing impaired or foreign-language
translations. All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so homerecorded video tapes also provide closed captions. Most pre-recorded commercial video
tapes provide closed captions as well. Check for the closed caption symbol in your television
schedule and on the tape’s packaging:
