Figures and illustrations in this User Manual are provided for reference only and may differ from actual product appearance.
Product design and specifications may be changed without notice.
User Instructions
• ScreenImageretention
Do not display a still image (such as on a video game) on the plasma display 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, reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of the
screen when displaying a still image.
• HeatonthetopofthePlasmaTV
The top side of the product may be hot after long periods of use as heat dissipates from the panel through the vent hole in the upper part of the
product.
This is normal and does not indicate any defect or operation failure of the product.
However, children should be prevented from touching the upper 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 or
humidity. This is normal and not a defect of the unit.
• CellDefects
The PDP uses a panel consisting of 1,226,880(SD-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
of the screen caused by the difference of light emission on the screen. Playing a DVD or a game console may cause similar effects
to the 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.
• Warranty
Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.
Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.
Securing the Installation Space
Keep the required distances 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.
• 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.
✎
Be careful when you contact the TV because some parts can be somewhat hot.

Network Connection (Australia and New Zealand only)
¦ Connecting to the Network
Wireless Network Connection
To connect your TV to your network wireless, you need a wireless router or modem and a Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter
(WIS12ABGNX, WIS09ABGNX), which you connect to your TV’s back or side panel USB port. See the illustration below.
Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter
Wireless IP sharer
(Wireless router having DHCP Server)
The LAN Port on the Wall
LAN Cable
Samsung’s Wireless LAN adapter is sold separately and is offered by select retailers and Ecommerce sites. Samsung’s Wireless
LAN adapter supports the IEEE 802.11a/b/g and n communication protocols. Samsung recommends using IEEE 802.11n.
When you play video over a network connection, the video may not be played smoothly.
✎
NOTE
• You must use the “Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter” (WIS12ABGNX, WIS09ABGNX) to use a wireless network.
• Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter and the USB extension Cable are sold separately and are offered by select retailers
and Ecommerce sites.
• To use a wireless network, your TV must be connected to a wireless IP sharer (either a router or a modem). If the
wireless IP sharer supports DHCP, your TV can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the wireless network.
• Select a channel for the wireless IP sharer that is not currently being used. If the channel set for the wireless IP sharer
is currently being used by another device nearby, this will result in interference and communication failure.
• If you apply a security system other than the systems listed below, it will not work with the TV.
• If HIGH PURE THROUGHPUT (Greenfield) 802.11n mode is selected and the Encryption type is set to WEP or
TKIP for your wireless router, Samsung TVs will not support a connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification
specifications.
• If your wireless router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can connect to the network via PBC (Push Button
Configuration) or PIN (Personal Identification Number). WPS will automatically configure the SSID and WPA key in
either mode.
• If your router, modem, or device is not certified, it may not connect to the TV via the “Samsung Wireless LAN
Adapter”.
• Ensure the TV is turned off before you connect the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter.
• Connection Methods: You can setup the wireless network connection like below.
–
Auto Setup (Using the Auto Network Search function)
–

• The Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter may not be recognized when using a connection via a USB hub or via a USB
extension cable other than the cable supplied.

Notice
The picture may appear corrupted or have static for some channels when the TV is connected to the Samsung Wireless
LAN Adapter. In such a case, establish a connection using one of the following methods or connect the Samsung Wireless
LAN Adapter using a USB cable in a place that is not affected by radio interference.
Method1
Connect using the USB right angle adapter. To connect the Samsung Wireless
LAN Adapter using the USB right angle adapter, follow these steps:
1. Connect the USB right angle adapter to the Samsung Wireless LAN
Adapter.
2. Connect the other end of the right angle adapter to the USB port.
* The position of port may differ
depending on the model.
Method2
Connect via an extension cable
To reconnect the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter using the extension cable,
follow these steps:
1. Connect the extension cable to the USB port.
2. Connect the extension cable and Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter.
3. Attach the Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter to the back of the TV near the
top, using double-sided adhesive tape.
✎
The Samsung Wireless LAN Adapter should be installed in an
interference-free area in order to avoid interference between the
adapter and tuner.

IfYourTVFailstoConnecttotheInternet
Your TV may not be able to connect to the Internet because your ISP has permanently registered the MAC address (a
unique identifying number) of your PC or modem, which it then authenticates each time you connect to the Internet as a
way of preventing unauthorized access. As your TV has a different MAC address, your ISP can not authenticate its MAC
address, and your TV can not connect.
To resolve this problem, ask your ISP about the procedures required to connect devices other than a PC (such as your TV)
to the Internet.
If your Internet service provider requires an ID or password to connect to the Internet, your TV may not be able to connect
to the Internet. If this is the case, you must enter your ID or password when connecting to the Internet.
The internet connection may fail because of a firewall problem. If this is the case, contact your Internet service provider.
If you cannot connect to the Internet even after you have followed the procedures of your Internet service provider, please
contact Samsung Electronics.
