alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
“dangerous voltage” within the product’s
enclosure that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric
shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.

Le symbole de l’éclair à l’intérieur d’un
triangle équilatéral est destiné à
alerter l’utilisateur sur la présence
d’une “tension dangereuse” non

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a JVC product.
Please read all instructions carefully before operation, to
ensure your complete understanding and to obtain the best
possible performance from the unit.

Precautions

Installation

• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor
too cold—between 5°C (41°F) and 35°C (95°F).

• Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat buildup inside the System.

DO NOT install the System in a location near
heat sources, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.

• Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.

• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference
with TV.

Power sources

• When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always
pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.

DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet
hands.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the System in
the following cases:

• After starting to heat the room

• In a damp room

• If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm place

Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case,
leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture
evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.

Others

• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the System,
unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before
operating any further.

DO NOT disassemble the System since there
are no user serviceable parts inside.

• If you are not going to operate the System for an extended
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.

If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and
consult your dealer.
