Important Warranty Information Regarding Television Format Viewing
 
✎See the warranty card for more information on warranty terms.
Wide screen format LED Displays (16:9, the aspect ratio of the screen width to height) are primarily designed to view wide scre en 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 mo del offers this feature and 
the images are constantly moving. Displaying stationary graphics and images on screen, such as the dark sidebars on no expanded  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 mar\
ket reports, video game displays, station logos, web si tes or computer graphics 
and patterns, should be limited as described above for all televisions. Displaying\
 stationary images that exceed the above guid elines can cause uneven 
aging of LED Displays that leave subtle, but permanent burned-in ghost images in the LED picture. To avoid this, vary the progr amming and images, and 
primarily display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars. On LED models that offer picture sizing feat ures, use these controls to 
view different formats as a full screen picture.
Be careful in the selection and duration of television formats used for viewin\
g. Uneven LED aging as a result of format selecti on and use, as well as burned 
in images, are not covered by your Samsung limited warranty.

Connecting to an AV Device
Using an HDMI or HDMI/DVI Cable: HD connection (up to 1080p)
We recommend using the HDMI connection for the best quality HD picture.
Available devices: DVD, Blu-ray player, HD cable box, HD STB (Set-Top-Box) satellite receiver
 
✎HDMI IN 1(DVI), 2(ARC), 3, 4 , PC/DVI AUDIO IN
 
When using an HDMI/DVI cable connection, you must use the HDMI IN 1(DVI)  jack for video. A DVD, Blu-ray 
p
layer, HD cable box, or HD STB satellite receiver may require a DVI-HDMI (DVI to HDMI) cable or DVI-HDMI 
(DVI to HDMI) adapter. The PC/DVI AUDIO IN jack is required for audio.
 
If an external device such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / HD cable box / HD STB satellite receiver supporting 
HDMI version older than 1.4 is connected, the TV may operate abnormally (e.g. no screen display / no sound / 
annoying flicker / abnormal color).
 
If there is no sound after connecting an HDMI cable, check the HDMI version of the external device. If you 
suspect the version is older than 1.4, contact the provider of the device to confirm the HDMI version and 
request an upgrade.
 
Samsung T Vs support HDMI 1.4 (with 3D and Audio Return Channel). However, the ARC(Audio Return 
Channel) function is only supported on  HDMI IN 2(ARC).
 –

If 3D Auto View is On, some functions, such as Yahoo or Internet@TV, are disabled. To use these functions, 
set 3D Auto View or 3D Mode to Off.
 
The ARC function enables digital output of sound using the  HDMI IN 2(ARC) port and can only be operated 
when
 the TV is connected to an audio receiver that supports ARC.
 
–   The ARC mode is only enabled when the TV is connected to a device with a\
n HDMI Standard cable, HDMI 
High Speed cable, Hdmi Standard with Ethernet cable or HDMI High Speed with Ethernet cable.
 – When the Input Source is the TV, the ARC function allows audio to be heard from a receiver. The audio is sent  to a receiver from the TV via an HDMI cable without the need for a separate optical cabl\
e.
 
It is recommended you purchase an HDMI-certified cable. Otherwise, the screen may appear blank or a 
connection error may occur.
