2Important Warranty InformationRegarding Television FormatViewingStandard screen format televisions (4:3, the aspect ratio of the screen width to height) are pri-marily designed to view standard format full-motion video. The images displayed on themshould primarily be in the standard 4:3 ratio format and constantly moving. Displaying station-ary graphics and images on screen, such as the dark top and bottom letterbox bars (widescreen pictures), should be limited to no more than 15% of the total television viewing perweek.Wide screen format televisions (16:9, the aspect ratio of the screen width to height) are primar-ily designed to view wide screen format full-motion video. The images displayed on themshould primarily be in the wide screen 16:9 ratio format, or expanded to fill the screen if yourmodel offers this feature, and constantly moving. Displaying stationary graphics and images onscreen, such as the dark side-bars on non-expanded standard format television video and pro-gramming, 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, videogame displays, station logos, web sites or computer graphics and patterns, should be limited asdescribed above for all televisions. Displaying any stationary images that exceed the above guide-lines can cause uneven aging of picture tubes (CRTs) that leave subtle, but permanent burned-in ghostimages in the television picture. To avoid this, vary the programming and images, and primarily dis-play full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars. On television models that offerpicture 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 CRTaging as a result of format selection and use, as well as other burned-in images, is not coveredby your Samsung limited warranty.
