Troubleshooting
Problem
If you have any questions about the TV, first refer to this list. If none of these troubleshooting tips apply, please visit www.samsung.com,
then click on Support, or contact the call centre listed on the back-cover of this manual.
RF(Cable/Antenna) Connection
Problem
Possible Solution
Picture Quality
The TV image does not look as good as
it did in the store.
If you have an analogue cable/set top box, upgrade to a digital set top box. Use HDMI or Component cables to
deliver HD (high definition) picture quality.
Cable/Satellite subscribers: Try HD stations from the channel line up.
Antenna connection: Try HD stations after performing Auto tuning.
Adjust the Cable/Set top box video output resolution to 1080i or 720p.
Make sure you are watching the TV at the minimum recommended distance based on the size and definition of
the signal.
The picture is distorted: macroblock
error, small block, dots, pixelization
Compression of video contents may cause picture distortion especially in fast moving pictures such as sports and
action movies.
Low signal level or bad quality can cause picture distortion. This is not a TV issue.
Mobile phones used close to the TV (cca up to 1m) may cause noise in picture on analogue and digital TV.
If youre using a component connection, make sure the component cables are connected to the correct jacks.
Incorrect or loose connections may cause colour problems or a blank screen.
Adjust the Picture options in the TV menu. (go to Picture mode / Colour / Brightness / Sharpness)
Adjust Energy Saving option in the TV menu. (go to MENU - Setup -Eco Solution - Energy Saving)
Try resetting the picture to view the default picture settings. (go to MENU - Picture - Picture Reset)
Set your PCs output resolution so it matches the resolutions supported by the TV.
If you are using a HDMI connection, check the audio output setting on your PC.
Others
HD channels will have black bars on either side of the screen when displaying up scaled SD (4:3) contents.
Black bars on the top and bottom will appear during movies that have aspect ratios different from your TV.
Adjust the picture size options on your external device or TV to full screen.
Replace the remote control batteries with the poles (+/) in the right direction.
Clean the transmission window located on the top of the remote control.
Try pointing the remote directly at the TV from 5~6 feet away.
Programme the Cable/Set top box remote control to operate the TV. Refer to the Cable/Set top box user manual
for the SAMSUNG TV code.
Check the supported resolution of the TV, and adjust the external devices output resolution accordingly. Refer to
resolution settings in this manual.
If connected with a cable box, please try to reset the cable box. Reconnect the AC cord and wait until the cable
box reboots. It may take up to 20 minutes.
Set the output resolution of the cable box to 1080i or 720p.
Make sure the TV is placed on a flat surface. It is necessary to use magnetized screw driver if you cannot remove
the screws from the TV.
Please check the volume the of external device connected to your TV.
If the TV is in the Store Demo mode, it will reset audio and picture settings every 30 minutes. Change the settings
from Store Demo mode to Home Use mode in the Plug & Play (Initial setup) procedure. Press the SOURCE
button to select TV mode, go to MENU Setup Plug & Play (Initial setup) ENTERE.
Check the cable connections. Make sure a video cable is not connected to an audio input.
For antenna or cable connections, check the signal strength. Low signal level may cause sound distortion.
If you are using an AV composite input, connect the video cable (yellow) to the Green jack of component input 1
on the TV.
There are recurrent picture/sound issues. Check and change the signal/source.
Make sure the AC power cord is securely plugged in to the wall outlet and the TV.
Make sure the wall outlet is working.
Try pressing the POWER button on the TV to make sure the problem is not the remote. If the TV turns on, refer to
The remote control does not work below.
There is no picture/video.
To prevent this, use felt pads on any surface of the TV that comes in direct contact with furniture.
This TFT LCD panel uses a panel consisting of sub 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.
You can keep your TV as optimum condition to upgrade the latest firmware on web site (samsung.com Support Downloads) by USB.
Check cable connections (remove and reconnect all cables connected to the TV and external devices).
Set your external devices (Cable/Set top Box, DVD, Blu-ray etc) video outputs to match the connections to the
TV input. For example, if an external devices output is HDMI, it should be connected to an HDMI input on the TV.
Make sure your connected devices are powered on.
Be sure to select the TVs correct source by pressing the SOURCE button on the TV remote.
