    							Important Warranty Information
    Regarding Television Format Viewing
    2
    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.

    							User Instructions 
    Screen Image retention
    Do not display a still image (such as on a video game) 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 53 of this manual to reduce the 
    degree of brightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.
    Altitude
    The PDP can only operate normally at heights under 6500ft.
    Heat on the top of the PDP TV
    The top side of the product may be hot after long periods of use as heat dissipates from the panel
    through the vent hole in the upper part of the product.
    This is normal and does not indicate any defect or operation failure of the product.
    However, children should be prevented from touching the upper part of the product.
    The product is making a ‘cracking’ noise.
    A ‘cracking’ noise may occur when the product contracts or expands due to a change of 
    surrounding environment such as temperature or humidity. This is normal and not a defect of the
    unit.
    Cell Defects
    The PDP uses a panel consisting of 1,230,000(SD-level) to 3,150,000(HD-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 5°C (41°F)
    A still image displayed too long may cause permanent damage to the PDP Panel.
    Watching the PDP TV in 4:3 format for a long period of time may leave
    traces of borders displayed on the left, right and center of the screen caused
    by the difference of light emission on the screen.
    Playing a DVD or a game console may cause similar effect to the screen.  
    Damages caused by the above effect are not covered by the Warranty.
    Afterimage on the Screen.
    Displaying still images from Video games and PC for longer than a certain period of time may 
    produce partial after-images.
    To prevent this effect, reduce the ‘brightness’ and ‘contrast’ when displaying still images for a 
    long time.
    Warranty
    Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.
    Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.
