Important Warranty Information
Regarding Television Format Viewing
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 con-
stantly moving.Displaying stationary graphics and images on screen,such as the dark side-bars on non-
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 market reports, video game
displays,station logos,web sites or computer graphics and patterns,should be limited as described above
for all televisions. Displaying any 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 primari-
ly display full screen moving images,not stationary patterns or dark bars.
On PDP models that offer picture 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 PDP aging as a
result of format selection and use,as well as other burned-in images,is not covered by your Samsung limited
warranty.

User Instructions
Screen Image retention
Do not display a still image (such as on a video game or when hooking up a PC to this Monitor) on the
plasma monitor 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 26 of this manual to
reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of this screen when displaying a still image.
Cell Defect
The plasma display panel consists of fine cells. Although the panels are produced with more than 99.9
percent active cells, there may be some cells that do not produce light or remain lit.
Atmospheric Pressure Condition : 0.8~1.1 atmospheric pressure
This condition is concerned with the height in which the PDP can normally operate. Be sure of this condition
when you use the PDP.
