Important Warranty Infiwmation Regarding Television Format Viewing
Standard screen format televisions (4:3, the aspect ratio of the screen width to height) are primarily designed to
view standard format full-motion video. The images displayed on them should primarily be in the standard 4:3
ratio format 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 format, or expanded to fill the screen if your model offers this feature, and constantly 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 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 (CRT_') that leave subtle, but permanent burned-in ghost images in the television picture, rio
avoid this, vary the programming 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 different formats 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 format selection and use, as well as other burned-in images, is not covered by your Samsung limited
warranty.
