Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or adaptors beyond their capacity, since this can result in fire or electric shock.
Power-supply cords should be placed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them. Pay
particular attention to cords at the plug end, at wall outlets, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
To protect this apparatus from a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall
outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the set due to lightning and power line surges.
Before connecting the AC power cord to the DC adaptor outlet, make sure that the voltage designation of the DC adaptor corresponds to the

Be sure to pull the power plug out of the outlet if the TV is to remain unused or if you are to leave the house for an extended period of time
(especially when children, elderly or disabled people will be left alone in the house).
– Accumulated dust can cause an electric shock, an electric leakage, or a fire by causing the power cord to generate sparks and heat or
by causing the insulation to deteriorate.
Be sure to contact an authorised service centre for information if you intend to install your TV in a location with heavy dust, high or low
temperatures, high humidity, chemical substances, or where it will operate 24 hours a day such as in an airport, a train station, etc. Failure to

VESA wall mount kit notes and specifications
You can install your wall mount on a solid wall perpendicular to the floor. Before attaching the wall
mount to surfaces other than plaster board, contact your nearest dealer for additional information.
If you install the TV on a ceiling or slanted wall, it may fall and result in severe personal injury.
– Standard dimensions for wall mount kits are shown in the table below.
– When purchasing our wall mount kit, a detailed installation manual and all parts necessary for
assembly are provided.
– Do not use screws that do not comply with the VESA standard screw specifications.
– Do not use screws that are longer than the standard length or do not comply with VESA
standard screw specifications. Screws that are too long may cause damage to the inside of the
TV set.
– For wall mounts that do not comply with the VESA standard screw specifications, the length of
the screws may differ depending on the wall mount specifications.
– Do not fasten the screws too firmly. This may damage the product or cause the product to fall,
leading to personal injury. Samsung is not liable for these kinds of accidents.
– Samsung is not liable for product damage or personal injury when a non-VESA or non-specified
wall mount is used or the consumer fails to follow the product installation instructions.
– Do not mount the TV at more than a 15 degree tilt.
When using a third-party wall mount, note that the assembling screw length(C) is shown below.

Providing proper ventilation for your TV
When you install your TV, maintain a distance of at least 10 cm between the TV and other objects
(walls, cabinet sides, etc.) to ensure proper ventilation. Failing to maintain proper ventilation may
result in a fire or a problem with the product caused by an increase in its internal temperature.
When you install your TV with a stand or a wall mount, we strongly recommend you use parts
provided by Samsung Electronics only. Using parts provided by another manufacturer may cause
difficulties with the product or result in injury caused by the product falling.

Safety Precaution: Securing the TV to the wall
Caution: Pulling, pushing, or climbing on the TV may cause the TV to fall. In
particular, ensure your children do not hang on or destabilise the TV. This
action may cause the TV to tip over, causing serious injuries or death. Follow
all safety precautions provided in the Safety Flyer included with your TV. For
added stability and safety, you can purchase and install the anti-fall device as
described below.
WARNING: Never place a television set in an unstable location. A television set may fall,
causing serious personal injury or death. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be
avoided by taking simple precautions such as
•
Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television set.
•
Only using furniture that can safely support the television set.
•
Ensuring the television set is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.
•
Not placing the television set on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases)
without anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a suitable support.
•
Not placing the television set on cloth or other materials that may be located
between the television set and supporting furniture.
•
Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television
set or its controls.
If your existing television set is being retained and relocated, the same considerations as
above should be applied.
Preventing the TV from falling
1. Put the screws into one set of brackets, and then firmly
fasten them to the wall. Confirm that the screws are firmly
attached to the wall.
– You may need additional material such as wall anchors
depending on the type of wall.
2. Put the screws into a second set of brackets, and then
fasten the screws to the TV.
– These screws may not be supplied with the TV. For a
49~75 inch model, purchase M8 screws.
3. Connect the brackets fixed to the TV and the brackets fixed
to the wall with a durable, heavy-duty string, and then tie
the string tightly.
– Install the TV near the wall so that it does not fall
backwards.
– Connect the string so that the brackets fixed to the wall
are at the same height as or lower than the brackets
fixed to the TV.

Eco sensor and screen brightness
Eco Sensor adjusts the brightness of the TV automatically. This feature measures the light in your
room and optimises the brightness of the TV automatically to reduce power consumption. If you
want to turn this off, go to > Settings > System > Eco Solution > Eco Sensor.
•
If the screen is too dark while you are watching TV in a dark environment, it may be due to the
Eco Sensor.

If a sticker was attached to the TV screen, some debris
can remain after you remove the sticker. Please clean
the debris off before watching TV.
•
The exterior and screen of the TV can get scratched
during cleaning. Be sure to wipe the exterior and screen
carefully using a soft cloth to prevent scratches.
•
Do not spray water or any liquid directly onto the TV.
Any liquid that goes into the product may cause a
failure, fire, or electric shock.
•
Turn off the TV, then gently wipe away smudges and
fingerprints on the panel with a micro-fiber cloth.
Clean the body or panel of the TV with a micro-fiber
cloth dampened with a small amount of water. After
that, remove moisture with a dry cloth. While cleaning,
do not apply strong force on the surface because it
may cause damage to the panel. Never use flammable
liquids (benzene, thinner, etc.) or a cleaning agent. For
stubborn smudges, spray a small amount of screen
cleaner on the cloth.

– WARNINGS: Image retention, commonly known as screen burn-in, can occur on most types
of television if the same image is displayed continuously. The most common causes of image
retention are logos that remain stationary on the TV screen. These logos are common on many
programmes received via a Set-top Box. To reduce this risk, avoid displaying still images for
long durations and lower the brightness or contrast settings to decrease the intensity of the
picture. Extended viewing of movies and programmes in aspect ratios that are different from
the aspect ratio of the TV may cause image retention. Always try to avoid black borders at
the top or bottom by using the zoom function. This will help eliminate the black borders and
fit the picture to the entire area of the screen. Using a video game console may cause image
retention and is not recommended. When using a PC input, avoid displaying still images for
long durations and reduce the brightness or contrast settings to decrease the intensity of the
picture.
– IMPORTANT: Image retention issues are not covered by your Samsung® warranty.
