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 the images are constantly moving. Displaying stationary

graphics and images on screen, such as the dark side-bars on nonexpanded 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 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 primarily display

full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark bars.

On PDP models that offer picture sizing features, use these controls to view 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 burned-in images, are not covered by your Samsung limited warranty.
