Important Safeguards

CAUTION:

Please read and retain for your safety.

Electrical energy can perform many useful functions. This TV set has been engineered and manufactured to assure your personal safety. But improper use can result in potential electrical shock or fire hazards. In order not to defeat the safeguards incorporated in this TV set, observe the following basic rules for its installation, use and servicing. Also follow all

warnings and instructions marked on your TV set.

INSTALLATION

(POLARIZED-TYPE)

1 Your TV set is equipped with a polarized AC line plug (one

 

blade of the plug is wider than the other). This safety feature

 

allows the plug to fit into the power outlet only one way.

 

Should you be unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet,

 

try reversing the plug. Should it still fail to fit, contact your

 

electrician.

 

2Operate the TV set only from a power source as indicated on the TV set or refer to the operating instructions for this information. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your TV set dealer or local power company. For battery operation, refer to the operating instructions.

3Overloaded AC outlets and extension cords are dangerous, and so are frayed power cords and broken plugs. They may result in a shock or fire hazard. Call your service technician for replacement.

4Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord, and do not place the TV set where power cord is subject to traffic or abuse. This may result in a shock or fire hazard.

5Do not use this TV set near water — for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near swimming pool, etc.

6If an outside antenna is connected to the TV set, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection requirements for the grounding electrode.

3

7An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

8TV sets are provided with ventilation openings in the cabinet to allow heat generated during operation to be released.

Therefore:

Never block the bottom ventilation slots of a portable TV set by placing it on a bed, sofa, rug, etc.

Never place a TV set in a “built-in” enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided.

Never cover the openings with a cloth or other material.

Never place the TV set near or over a radiator or heat register.

9To avoid personal injury:

Do not place a TV set on a sloping shelf unless properly secured.

Use only a cart or stand recommended by the TV set manufacturer.

Do not try to roll a cart with small casters across thresholds or deep pile carpets.

Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturer.

Use

10Caution children about dropping or pushing objects into the TV set through cabinet openings. Some internal parts carry hazardous voltages and contact can result in a fire or electrical shock.

11Unplug the TV set from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or an aerosol cleaner.

12Never add accessories to a TV set that has not been designed for this purpose. Such additions may result in a hazard.

4

PORTABLE CART WARNING (Symbol provided by RETAC)

13For added protection of the TV set during a lightning storm or when the TV set is to be left unattended for an extended period of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to product due to lightning storms or power line surges.

14A TV set and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the TV set and cart combination to overturn.

Service

15Unplug this TV set from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

A.When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.

B.If liquid has been spilled into the TV set.

C.If the TV set has been exposed to rain or water.

D.If the TV set does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered in the operating instructions as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the TV set to normal operation.

E.If the TV set has been dropped or damaged in any way.

F.When the TV set exhibits a distinct change in performance — this indicates a need for service.

16Do not attempt to service this TV set yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

17When replacement parts are required, have the service technician verify in writing that the replacement parts he uses have the same safety characteristics as the original parts. Use of manufacturer’s specified replacement parts can prevent fire, shock, or other hazards.

18Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV set, please ask the service technician to perform the safety check described in the manufacturer’s service literature.

19When a TV set reaches the end of its useful life, improper disposal could result in a picture tube implosion. Ask a qualified service technician to dispose of the TV set.

20Note to CATV system installer.

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

Warnings

Screen Burn-in

By displaying fixed images for extended periods of time, can leave a subtle but permanent ghost image in your picture. This is referred to as "burn-in". To avoid this, mix your viewing pattern.

Examples include, but are not limited to the following:

Stock-market report bars

Shopping channel logos and pricing displays

Video game patterns or scoreboards

Bright station logos

Internet web sites or other computer-style images.

DVD discs, video tapes, laser discs

Broadcast, cable, satellite channels or digital television tuners/converters.

Note: Warranty DOES NOT cover screen burn-in or uneven picture tube aging.

For example...

TV on

TV off

XYZ

XYZ

Caring for the Cabinet

Normally, light dusting with a soft, non-scratching duster will keep your TV clean.

If you wish to wipe down the television, first unplug it. Then wipe gently with a soft cloth, slightly moistened with water. You can add a few drops of mild liquid detergent to the water to help remove spots of oily dirt.

DO NOT allow liquid to enter the TV through the ventilation slots.

DO NOT use strong or abrasive cleaners on the TV.

DO NOT spray liquids or cleaners directly on the TV’s surface.

DO NOT rub or scrub the TV harshly. Wipe the set gently with a soft cloth.

Caring for the Screen

The screen is treated with an electrostatic-proof coating. When it gets dirty, wipe it gently with a soft cloth. If the screen is very dirty, wipe it down with a cloth dipped in a diluted kitchen cleaner and thoroughly wrung-out. Then wipe immediately after with a clean, dry cloth.

Do not apply alcohol, organic solvents (like acetone), acidic or alkaline cleansers to the screen. These will remove the coating layer and cause discolorations.

Do not push or hit the screen. This could cause scratches on the screen surface and image distortions.

Quick Setup

Getting Started

 

 

Getting Started

These quick setup pages will provide you, in three easy steps, with the basic information you need to begin using your new television right away.

If you have questions, or for more detailed information on any of these steps, please consult other sections of this manual.

Step 1 – The Remote Control

Before you can operate your remote control, you first need to install the batteries (included).

Lift and pull the latch on the back of the remote control to open. Insert two batteries (included)

carefully noting the “+” and “–” markings, placing the “–” end in the unit first. Snap the cover back into place.

When you change the batteries, try to complete the task within three minutes. If you take longer than three minutes, the remote control codes for your VCR, DVD, and/or cable box/satellite receiver may have to be reset. See pages 24 - 27.

Key Feature Buttons

The four key feature buttons at the center of the remote can be used for basic operation of the television. The top and bottom buttons will scan forward and back through the available channels. To move rapidly through the channels using

JVC’s Hyperscan feature, press and hold CH+ or CH–. The channels will zip by at a rate of five channels per second. The right and left buttons will turn the volume up or down. These buttons are also marked with four arrows and are used with JVC’s onscreen menu system. To use the onscreen menus, press the MENU button.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Basic Operation

Turn the television on and off by pressing the POWER button at the top right corner of the remote. If this is the first time you are turning on the TV, the interactive plug-in menu appears.

Make sure the TV/CATV switch is set to TV. Move the switch to CATV only if you need to operate a cable box.

Slide the VCR/DVD selector switch to VCR to control a VCR. Slide to

DVD to control a DVD player. Please see pages 24 to 27 for instructions on programming your remote control to operate a cable box, VCR or DVD player.

1)Connect the HDMI to DVI Cable from the DIGITAL OUT on the back of your DTV decoder, to the DIGITAL-IN on the back of your television.

2)Connect a red cable from the DTV decoder RIGHT AUDIO OUT, to the RIGHT AUDIO DIGI- TAL-IN on the back of your television.

3)Connect a white cable from the DTV decoder LEFT AUDIO OUT, to the LEFT AUDIO DIGI- TAL-IN on the back of your television.

The digital-in terminal is not compatible with the picture signal of a personal computer.

Use a HDMI to DVI cable (commercially available) in order to digitally connect the television with a DTV decoder.

Notes:

If 480p signals (640x480 or 720x480) are displayed on the screen, the horizontal balance may be slightly shifted. Access the “DIGITAL-IN” in the initial setup menu to adjust it. (Refer to page 47.)

When you do the above connection, set DIGITAL-IN AUDIO in the Initial Setup menu to ANALOG. See "DIGITAL-IN AUDIO", page 47.

Connecting to an AV Receiver using your television's V1 Smart Input

By connecting your AV Receiver to your television's V1 Smart Input, you can watch picture sources from many different devices, without having to change or use the other input connections on your TV. This allows you to free up the other input connections so you can connect more devices to your television.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1)Connect an S-Video Cable from the AV Receiver's MONITOR OUT, to the S-Video INPUT-1 on the back of your television.

2)Connect a Yellow Composite Cable from the AV Receiver's MONITOR OUT, into the VIDEO INPUT-1 on the back of your television.

3)Connect a Green Component Cable from the AV Receiver's Y MONITOR OUT, into the Y VIDEO INPUT-1 on the back of your television.

4)Connect a Blue Component Cable from the AV Receiver's PB MONITOR OUT, into the Pb VIDEO INPUT-1 on the back of your television.

5)Connect a Red Component Cable from the AV Receiver's PR MONITOR OUT, into the Pr VIDEO INPUT-1 on the back of your television.

Note:

Please refer to your AV Receiver instruction manual for more information on connecting your speakers and other devices like a DVD player.

Use your AV Receiver's remote to switch to the different devices you have connected.

Some AV Receivers may not respond when the V1 Smart Input function is turned on.

If you have video connections for each input device connected to your AV Receiver, you should not connect them using both S-Video and Composite connection at the same time when you are using V1 Input as the V1 Smart Input. In this case we recommend using the S-Video connection.
