Important Warranty Information Regarding 
Television Format Viewing

 

See the warranty card for more information on warranty 

terms.

Wide screen format LED 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 sidebars 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 stationary images that exceed the above 

guidelines can cause uneven aging of LED Displays that leave 

subtle, but permanent burned-in ghost images in the LED picture. 

To avoid this, vary the programming and images, and primarily 

display full screen moving images, not stationary patterns or dark 

bars. On LED 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 you use for 

viewing. Uneven LED aging as a result of format selection and use, 

as well as burned-in images, are not covered by your Samsung 

limited warranty.

Still image warning

Avoid displaying still images (such as jpeg picture files) or still 

image elements (such as TV channel logos, TV shows or movies 

in panorama or 4:3 format, stock or news scroll bars, etc.) on the 

screen. The constant display of still pictures can cause ghosting or 

image burn-in (image retention) on the LED screen, which will affect 

image quality. To reduce the risk of this effect, please follow the 

recommendations below:

• 

Avoid displaying the same TV channel for long periods.

• 

Always try to display any image in full screen mode. Use the TV's 

Picture Options menu to select the optimal screen size.

• 

Reduce brightness and contrast values to the minimum required 

to achieve the desired picture quality.  Values that exceed the 

minimum may speed up the burn-in process.

• 

Frequently use all TV features designed to reduce image retention 

and screen burn-in. Refer to proper user manual section for 

details.
