Troubleshooting

Testing the Picture

The Problem

Try this!

Flickering and DimmingIf your Samsung Television is flickering or dimming sporadically, you may need to disable some of the energy efficiency features. Disable Energy Saving (System > Eco Solution > Energy Saving) or Eco Sensor (System > Eco Solution > Eco Sensor).
Component Connections/Screen Color

If the color on your Samsung television screen is not correct or the black and white colors are off, run Picture Test (Support > Self Diagnosis > Picture Test). If the test results indicate that the problem is not caused by the TV, do the following:

● Confirm that the TV's video input connectors are connected to the correct external device video output connectors.

● Check the other connections as well. If the TV is connected to an external device via a component cable, confirm that the Pb, Pr, and Y jacks are plugged into their proper connectors.

Screen Brightness

If the colors on your Samsung TV are correct but just a little too dark or bright, try adjusting the following settings first.

● Go to the Picture menu and adjust the Backlight/Cell Light (available on different models) Contrast, Brightness, Sharpness, Color, and Tint (G/R) settings.

Ghosting, Blurring, or JudderingIf you notice ghosting or blurring on the screen, use the LED Clear Motion option (Picture > Picture Options > LED Clear Motion) to resolve the issue.
Unwanted Powering OffIf your Samsung TV appears to turn off by itself, try disabling some of the TV's energy efficiency features. See if Sleep Timer (System > Time > Sleep Timer) has been enabled. The Sleep Timer automatically turns the TV off after a specified period of time. If the Sleep Timer has not been enabled, see if No Signal Power Off (System > Eco Solution > No Signal Power Off) or Auto Power Off (System > Eco Solution > Auto Power Off) has been enabled and disable them.
Problems Powering OnWhen the TV is turned on, the remote control receiver flashes 5 times before the screen turns on. 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 normally. Make sure that the antenna cable or cable TV cable is firmly connected. If you have a cable/satellite box confirm that it is plugged in and turned on.
Unable to find a ChannelIf your TV is not connected to a cable box or satellite box, run Setup (System > Setup) or Auto Program (Broadcasting > Auto Program).
The TV image does not look as good as it did in the store.

Store displays are all tuned to digital, HD (high definition) channels. 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 picture is distorted.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 3.2 ft) may cause noise in analog and digital channels.
The color is wrong or missing.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.
The color is poor or the picture is not bright enough.Go to the Picture menu and then adjust the Picture Mode, Brightness, Sharpness, and Color settings. See if Energy Saving (System > Eco Solution > Energy Saving) has been enabled. Try resetting the picture. (Picture > Picture Reset)
There is a dotted line on the edge of the screen.If the Picture Size has been set to Screen Fit, change the setting to 16:9. Change the cable/satellite box resolution.
The picture is black and white.If you are using AV composite input, connect the video cable (yellow) to the TV's green component jack.

Testing the Sound

The Problem

Try this!

There is no sound or the sound is too low at maximum volume.Check the volume control of the device (cable/satellite box, DVD, Blu-ray, etc.) connected to your TV.
The picture is good but there is no sound.Set Sound > Speaker Settings > TV Sound Output to TV Speaker. If you are using an external device, check the device’s audio output option. (For example, you may need to change your cable box’s audio option to HDMI if the box connected to your TV is using an HDMI cable.) To listen to the computer sound, connect the external speaker to the computer’ s audio output connector. If your TV has a headphone jack, make sure there is nothing plugged into it. Reboot the connected device by disconnecting and then reconnecting the device’s power cable.
The speakers are making an odd sound.Make sure that the audio cable is connected to the correct audio output connector on the external device. For antenna or cable connections, check the signal information. A low signal level may cause sound distortions. Run Sound Test (Support > Self Diagnosis > Sound Test).

The TV is hot.Watching TV for an extended period of time causes the panel to generate heat. The heat from the panel is dissipated through internal vents running along the top of the TV. The bottom, however, may feel hot to the touch after extended use. Children watching TV need constant adult supervision to prevent them from touching the TV. This heat, however, is not a defect and does not affect the TV's functionality
The picture won’t display in full screen.HD channels will have black bars on either side of the screen when displaying upscaled SD (4:3) content. Black bars will appear at the top and bottom of the screen when you watch movies that have aspect ratios different from your TV. Adjust the picture size options on your external device or set the TV to full screen.

There is an intermittent loss of audio or video.Check the cable connections and reconnect them. Loss of audio or video can be caused by using overly rigid or thick cables. Make sure the cables are flexible enough for long term use. If you are mounting the TV to a wall, we recommend using cables with 90-degree connectors.
There are small particles on the TV's bezel.This is part of the product’s design and is not a defect.
The PIP menu is not available.PIP functionality is only available when you are viewing video from an HDMI or Component source on the main screen.
A POP (TV’s internal banner ad) appears on the screen.Change the Use Mode (Support > Use Mode) to Home Use.
The TV is making a popping noise.The expansion and contraction of the TV's outer casing may cause a popping noise. This does not indicate a product malfunction. The TV is safe to use.
The TV is making a humming noise.Your TV utilizes high-speed switching circuits and high levels of electrical current. Depending on the TV's brightness level, the TV may seem slightly noisier than a conventional TV. Your TV has undergone strict quality control procedures that meet our demanding performance and reliability requirements. Some noise coming from the TV is considered normal and is not an acceptable cause for an exchange or refund.
