Troubleshooting
If the TV appears to have a problem, first review this list of possible problems and solutions. If none of 
the troubleshooting tips apply, visit www.samsung.com/support or contact Samsung Customer Service.
Screen
If there is a problem with the screen, run  Picture Test (Support > Self Diagnosis > Picture Test) to 
diagnose the issue. If the test fails to identify a problem, there may be a problem with an external 
device or the signal strength.
There is something  wrong with the TV. Try this!
Flickering and Dimming If your Samsung Television is flickering or dimming sporadically, you may need 
to disable some of the energy efficiency features. Disable Energy Saving
 (System 
>  Eco Solution  > Eco Sensor) and/or Energy Saving  (System >  Eco Solution  > 
Energy Saving ) and check again.
Component 
Connections/Screen 
Color If you find that the color on your Samsung television screen is not correct or the 
black and white colors are off, run Self Diagnosis
 (Support >  Self Diagnosis > 
Picture Test).
If the test results are negative, check the following:
Are the TV's video input connectors connected to the correct external device video 
output connectors?
Check other connections as well. If the TV is connected to an external device via a 
component cable, check that the Pb, Pr, and Y jacks are plugged into their proper 
connectors.
Screen Brightness If you find that the colors on your Samsung TV are correct but just a little too dark 
or bright, try adjusting the following settings first.
Navigate to 
Picture and adjust Backlight/Cell Light  (applicable models), Contrast, 
Brightness, Sharpness, Color, Tint (G/R)  and other picture quality adjustment 
settings.
Auto Motion Plus /BlurIf you find that there is a blur or “ghost” shadow to the images on your television 
screen, you might be able to correct the issue using 
Auto Motion Plus (Picture > 
Picture Options  > Auto Motion Plus ).
Unwanted Powering 
Off If your Samsung TV appears to turn off by itself, try disabling some of the TV's 
energy efficiency features. Check if Sleep Timer
 (System >  Time > Sleep Timer ) 
has been enabled.  Sleep Timer automatically turns off the TV to save energy after 
a specified period of inactivity. If the Sleep Timer has not been enabled, see if No 
Signal Power Off ( System > Eco Solution  > No Signal Power Off) or Auto Power 
Off ( System >  Eco Solution  > Auto Power Off) has been enabled.
Problems Powering On When the TV is turned on, the remote control receiver flashes 5 times before the 
screen turns on.
If you find that you are having problems powering on your Samsung television, 
there are a number of things to check before calling the service department. If the 
power cord is connected properly and the remote control is operating normally, the 
problem might be with the antenna cable connection or the cable/satellite box not 
being turned on. Check the antenna connection or turn on the cable/satellite box.

Unable to find a 
Channel Run 
Setup  (System >  Setup) or Auto Program ( Broadcasting > Auto Program).
The TV image does not 
look as good as it did 
in the store. Store displays are all tuned to digital, HD (high definition) channels.
If you have an analog cable/set top box, upgrade to a digital set top box. Use 
HDMI or Component cables to deliver HD (high definition) picture quality.
Many HD channels are upscaled from SD (Standard Definition) content. Look for a 
channel that is broadcasting true HD content.
Cable/Satellite Subscribers: Try HD channels from the channel lineup.
Air/Cable Antenna Connection: Try HD channels after performing the Auto 
Program operation.
Adjust the cable/satellite box's video output resolution to 1080i or 720p.
The picture is distorted. The compression of video content may cause picture distortions, especially in fast 
moving pictures such as sports and action movies.
A weak or bad quality signal can cause picture distortions. This is not an issue 
with the TV.
Mobile phones used close to the TV (within 1m) may cause noise in analog and 
digital channels.
The color is wrong or 
missing. If you’re using a Component connection, make sure that the component cables are 
connected to the correct jacks. Incorrect or loose connections may cause color 
problems or a blank screen.
The color is poor or 
the picture is not bright 
enough. Navigate to 
Picture and adjust Picture Mode , Brightness, Sharpness, Color, and 
other picture adjustment settings.
See if Energy Saving  (System >  Eco Solution  > Energy Saving ) has been enabled.
Try resetting the picture. ( Picture > Reset Picture)
There is a dotted line 
on the edge of the 
screen. If 
Picture Size is set to Screen Fit , change it to 16:9.
Change the cable/satellite box resolution.
The picture is black 
and white. If you are using AV composite input, connect the video cable (yellow) to the TV's 
green component jack.
The color is wrong or 
missing. If you are using a Component connection, make sure that the component cables 
are connected to the correct jacks. Incorrect or loose connections may cause 
color problems or a blank screen.

Sound
If you find that there is a problem with the TV's speakers, run Sound Test (Support > Self Diagnosis > 
Sound Test) to diagnose the issue. If the audio is OK, the sound problem may be caused by the source 
or signal.
There is something wrong  with the TV. Try this!
There is no sound or 
the sound is too low at 
maximum volume. Please check the volume of the device (cable/satellite box, DVD, Blu-ray, etc.) 
connected to your TV.
The picture is good but 
there is no sound. Navigate to 
Sound and set Speaker Select to TV Speaker.
If you are using an external device, check the device’s audio output option. (For 
example, you may need to change your cable box’s audio option to HDMI if the 
box connected to your TV is using an HDMI cable.)
If you are using a DVI to HDMI cable, a separate audio cable is required.
If your TV has a headphone jack, make sure there is nothing plugged into it.
Reboot the connected device by disconnecting and then reconnecting the device’
s power cable.
The speakers are making 
an odd sound. Make sure that the audio cable is connected to the correct audio output 
connector on the external device.
For antenna or cable connections, check the signal information. A low signal 
level may cause sound distortions.
Run 
Self Diagnosis ( Support > Self Diagnosis >  Sound Test).
3D TV
There is something wrong 
with the TV. Try this!
The 3D Active Glasses 
are not working correctly. Make sure the glasses are turned on.
The 3D Active Glasses may not work properly if there is another 3D product or 
electronic device turned on near the glasses or TV.
If there is a problem, keep other electronic devices as far away as possible from 
the 3D Active Glasses.
The 3D images don’t 
look quite right. The ideal viewing distance is three times or more the height of the screen.
We also recommend sitting with your eyes level with the screen.
The batteries in the 3D 
glasses don’t last. Turn off the 3D glasses when you are not using them. If you leave the 3D glasses 
on, the battery lifespan is shortened.

There is something wrong 
with the TV. Try this!
The TV is not receiving 
all channels. Make sure the coaxial cable is connected securely.
Run 
Auto Program ( Broadcasting > Auto Program) to add all available channels 
to the channel list.
Verify that the antenna is positioned correctly.
There are no captions on 
digital channels. Navigate to 
Caption (Broadcasting  > Caption ) and change the Caption Mode 
setting.
Some channels may not have caption data.
The picture is distorted. The compression of video content may cause picture distortions. This is 
especially true with fast moving pictures such as sports and action movies.
A weak signal can cause picture distortions. This is not a problem with the TV.

Miscellaneous
There is something wrong 
with the TV. Try this!
The TV is hot. Watching TV for an extended period of time causes the panel to generate heat. 
The heat from the panel is dissipated through internal vents running along the 
top part of the TV. The bottom portion, however, may feel hot to the touch after 
extended use. Children watching TV need constant adult supervision to prevent 
them from touching the TV. This heat, however, is not a defect and does not 
affect the TV's functionality.
The picture won’t 
display in full screen. HD channels will have black bars on either side of the screen when displaying 
upscaled SD (4:3) content.
Black bars will appear at the top and bottom of the screen when you watch 
movies that have aspect ratios different from your TV.
Adjust the picture size options on your external device or set the TV to full 
screen.
The "Mode Not 
Supported" message 
appears. Check the supported resolutions of the TV and adjust the external device’s 
output resolution accordingly.
The Captions item in the 
TV menu is grayed out. You cannot select the Caption
 menu if you have selected a source connected 
to the TV via HDMI or Component. The external device’s caption function must 
also be activated.
The TV smells of plastic. This smell is normal and will dissipate over time.
The TV's Signal 
Information  option is 
not activated in the Self 
Diagnosis. Verify that the current channel is a digital channel.
Signal Information
 is only available with digital channels. 
The TV is tilted to the 
side. Remove the base stand from the TV and reassemble it.
Broadcasting  is grayed 
out. The Broadcasting
 menu is only available when Source  is set to TV.
The Broadcasting  menu cannot be accessed while watching TV using a cable 
box or satellite receiver.

The settings are lost 
after 30 minutes or every 
time the TV is turned off. If 
Use Mode  is set to Store Demo, the TV's audio and video settings are 
automatically reset every 30 minutes.
Change Use Mode  (Support >  Use Mode) to Home Use.
There is an intermittent 
loss of audio or video. Check the cable connections and reconnect them.
Loss of audio or video can be caused by using overly rigid or thick cables.
Make sure the cables are flexible enough for long term use. If you are mounting 
the TV to a wall, we recommend using cables with 90-degree connectors.
There are small particles 
on the TV's bezel. This is part of the product’s design and is not a defect.
The PIP menu is not 
available. PIP
 functionality is only available when you are using an HDMI or Component 
source.
A POP (TV’s internal 
banner ad) appears on 
the screen. Change Use Mode
 (Support >  Use Mode) to Home Use.
The TV is making a 
popping noise. The expansion and contraction of the TV's outer casing may cause a popping 
noise. This does not indicate a product malfunction. The TV is safe to use.
The TV is making a 
humming noise. Your TV utilizes high-speed switching circuits and high levels of electrical 
current, and depending on the brightness level being used may seem slightly 
noisier than a conventional TV.
Your TV has undergone strict quality control procedures that meet our 
demanding performance and reliability requirements.
Some noise coming from the TV is considered normal and is not an acceptable 
cause for an exchange or refund.
Image Retention (Burn 
In) Issue This issue affects PDP TVs only. Watching TV for an extended period of time or 
using the 4:3 screen ratio only may result in burn-ins.
PDP TVs are equipped with Pixel Shift screen burn reduction technology. Pixel 
Shift technology reduces screen burn-ins in PDP TVs.
It does this by moving the picture slightly vertically or horizontally.
Use Screen Burn Protection (
System > Screen Burn Protection) to prevent 
screen burn-ins.

Navigate to the System menu and verify that Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC)
 is set to On.
Scan for Anynet+ devices again.
Anynet+ devices must be connected to the TV using an HDMI cable. Make sure the 
device is connected to your TV with an HDMI cable. Some HDMI cables may not 
support Anynet+.
If the connection is terminated because there has been a power failure or the HDMI 
cable has been disconnected, please scan for the device again.
The TV audio is not 
being played through 
the receiver. Connect an optical cable to the TV and the receiver.
