This image retention is also known as “screen burn”. To avoid such image retention, reduce the degree ofbrightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.• Heat on the top of the Plasma TVThe top side of the product may be hot after long period of use as heat dissipates from the panel through the vent hole in the upper part of theproduct. This is normal and does not indicate any defect or operation failure of the product. However, children should be prevented from touching theupper 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 in the surrounding environment such as temperature orhumidity. This is normal and not a defect of the unit.• Cell DefectsThe PDP uses a panel consisting of 2,360,000(HD-level) to 6,221,000(FHD-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 41°F (5°C)• A still image displayed too long may cause permanent damage to the PDP Panel.Watching the Plasma TV in 4:3 format for a long period of time may leave traces of borders displayed on the left, right and centre ofthe screen caused by the difference of light emission on the screen. Playing a DVD or a game console may cause similar effects tothe screen.Damages caused by the above effect are not covered by the Warranty.• After-images 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.• WarrantyWarranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.Securing the Installation SpaceKeep the required distance between the product and other objects (e.g. walls) to ensure proper ventilation.Failing to do so may result in fire or a problem with the product due to an increase in the internal temperature of the product.✎ When using a stand or wall-mount, use parts provided by Samsung Electronics only.x If you use parts provided by another manufacturer, it may result in a problem with the product or an injury due to the product falling.✎ The appearance may differ depending on the product.Installation with a stand.
