Owner's |nstructio _=m61mDtlm_===_ll_ Important Regarding Viewing Warranty Television Information Format Standard screen format televisions (4:3, the aspect ratio of the screen width to height) are primarily designed to view standard furmat full motion video. The images displayed on them should primarily be in the standard 4:3 ratio furmat and constantly moving. Displaying stationary graphics and images on screen, such as the dark top and bottom letterbox bars (wide screen pictures), should be limited to no more than 15% of the total television viewing per week. Wide screen format televisions (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 furmat, or expanded to fill the screen if your model offbrs this feature, and constantly moving. Displaying stationary graphics and images on screen, such as the dark side bars on non expanded standard furmat television video and programmbl 8, 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, 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 picture tubes (CRTs) that leave subtle, but permanent burned in ghost images in the television picture. To avoid this, vary the pro gramming and images, and primarily display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars. On television models that offer picture sizing features, use these controls to view the diffbrent furmats as a full screen picture. Be careful in the selection and duration of television formats used for viewing. Uneven CRT aging as a result of furmat selection and use, as well as other burned in images, is not covered by your Samsung limited warranty. 2 CONTENTS Chapter J 1: Your New TV ................ 5 List cf Features ...........................................
