If you are having problems powering on your Samsung television, there are a number
of things to check before calling the service department. Confirm that the TV's power
cord is connected correctly at both ends and that the remote control is operating

If you have an analog cable/set top box, upgrade to a digital set top box. Use HDMI
or Component cables to deliver HD (high definition) picture quality.
Many HD channels are upscaled from SD (Standard Definition) content. Look for a
channel that is broadcasting true HD content.
● Cable/Satellite Subscribers: Try HD channels from the channel lineup.
● Air/Cable Antenna Connection: Try HD channels after running the Auto Program
function.
Adjust the cable/satellite box's video output resolution to 1080i or 720p.
The compression of video content may cause picture distortions, especially in fast
moving pictures from sports programs and action movies.
A weak or bad quality signal can cause picture distortions. This is not an issue with
the TV.
Mobile phones used close to the TV (within 3 ft/1m) may cause noise in analog and
digital channels.
If you're using a Component connection, make sure that the Component cables are
connected to the correct jacks. Incorrect or loose connections may cause color
problems or a blank screen.
