Auto Volume
Viewing Closed Caption Information
Each broadcasting station has its own signal conditions, and it is inconvenient to adjust
the volume every time the channel is changed. “Auto volume” automatically adjusts the
volume of the desired channel by lowering the sound output when the modulation signal
is high or by raising the sound output when the modulation signal is low.
Your TV decodes and displays the closed captions information that is broadcast along with some
television shows. These captions are usually subtitles for the hearing impaired or translations into
other languages. All VCRs record the closed caption signal from television programs, so pre-
recorded video tapes can also deliver closed-caption information. Check for the closed caption
symbol (
) on the tape’s package or your TV program-schedule.

groups work independently: If a household includes very young children as well as young
adults, the TV guidelines must be set up separately for each age group. (See next step.)
The “V-Chip” screen will
appear, and “V-Chip Lock”
will be selected.
To enable the V-Chip feature,
move the joystick right so that
the “V-Chip Lock” field is On.
(Moving the joystick to the

How to Set up Restrictions Using the MPAA Ratings: G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17, X
The MPAA rating system uses the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) system, and its
main application is for movies. (Eventually, movie videocassettes will be encoded with MPAA rat-
ings.) When the V-Chip lock is on, the TV will automatically block any programs that are coded
with objectionable ratings (either MPAA or TV-Ratings).
NC-17

How to Set up Your PC Software (Windows only)
Using Your TV as a Computer (PC) Display
The Windows display-settings for a typical computer are shown below. The actual screens on your
PC will probably be different, depending upon your particular version of Windows and your par-
ticular video card. However, even if your actual screens look different, the same basic setup infor-
mation will apply in almost all cases. (If not, contact your computer manufacturer or Samsung
Dealer.)
How to connect Your PC to the TV

may be different, depending on the model.
First, click on “Settings” on the Windows
start menu.

The two key variables that apply to the
TV-PC interface are “resolution” and “col-
ors.” The correct settings for these two vari-
ables are:
* Screen area (sometimes called “resolu-
tion”): 1024 x 768 pixels
* Color: “24-bit” color (might also be
expressed as “16 million colors”). Shown
at left is a typical screen for “Display” dia-
