Getting started

- The product should be placed more than one foot
away from heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, and other products (including

ampliers) that produce heat.

- When connecting other products such as VCR’s,
and DVD players, you should turn off the power of

this product for protection against electric shock.

- Do not place combustibles behind the cooling fan.

For example, cloth, paper, matches, aerosol cans
or gas lighters that present special hazards when
over heated.

- Do not look into the projection lens while the
illumination lamp is turned on. Exposure of your
eyes to the strong light can result in impaired
eyesight.

- Do not look into the inside of this unit through
vents (ventilation holes), etc. Do not look at the
illumination lamp directly by opening the cabinet
while the illumination lamp is turned on. The
illumination lamp also contains ultraviolet rays and
the light is so powerful that your eyesight can be
impaired.

- Do not drop, hit, or damage the light-source lamp
(lamp unit) in any way. It may cause the light­ source lamp to break and lead to injuries. Do not
use a damaged light source lamp. If the light­ source lamp is broken, ask your dealer to repair it.
Fragments from a broken light-source lamp may
cause injuries.

- The light-source lamp used in this projector is a
high pressure mercury lamp. Be careful when
disposing of the light-source lamp. If anything is
unclear, please consult your dealer.

- Do not ceiling-mount the projector to a place which

tends to vibrate; otherwise, the attaching xture of

the projector could be broken by the vibration,
possibly causing it to fall or overturn, which could
lead to personal injury.

- Use only the accessory cord designed for this

product to prevent shock.

- For health reasons, please take a break of about
5-15 minutes every 30-60 minutes and let your
eyes rest. Please refrain from watching any 3D­ images when you feel tired, unwell or if you feel
any other discomfort. Moreover, in case you see a
double image, please adjust the equipment and
software for proper display. Please stop using the
unit if the double image is still visible after
adjustment.

- Once every three years, please perform an internal
test. This unit is provided with replacement parts
needed to maintain its function (such as cooling
fans). Estimated replacement time of parts can
vary greatly depending on frequency of use and
the respective environment. For replacement,
please consult your dealer, or the nearest

authorized JVC service center.

- When xing the unit to the ceiling, Please note that

we do not take any responsibility, even during the
warranty period, if the product is damaged due to

use of metal xtures used for xation to the ceiling

other than our own or if the installation

environment of said metal xtures is not

appropriate. If the unit is suspended from the
ceiling during use, please be careful in regard to
the ambient temperature of the unit. If you use
a central heating, the temperature close to the
ceiling will be higher than normally expected.

- Video images can burn into the electronic com

ponent parts. Please do not display screens with
still images of high brightness or high contrast,
such as found in video games and computer
programs. Over a long period of time it might
stick to the picture element. There is no problem
with the playback of moving images, e.g. normal
video footage.

- Not using the unit for a long time can lead to
malfunction. Please power it on and let it run
occasionally. Please avoid using the unit in a
room where cigarettes are smoked. It is impos
sible to clean optical component parts if they are
contaminated by nicotine or tar. This might lead
to performance degradation.

- Please watch from a distance three times the
height of the projected image size. Persons with
photosensitivity, any kind of heart disease, or
weak health should not use 3D glasses.

- Watching 3D-images might be cause of illness.
If you feel any change in your physical condition,
please stop watching immediately and consult a
physician if necessary.

- When watching 3D images, it is recommended
to take regular breaks. As the length and
frequency of the required breaks differ for every
person, please judge according to your own
condition.

- If your child watches while wearing 3D glasses,
it should be accompanied by its parents or an
adult guardian. The adult guardian should be
careful to avoid situations where the child’s eyes
might become tired, as responses to tiredness
and discomfort, etc., are hard to detect, and it is
possible for the physical condition to deteriorate
very quickly. As the visual sense is not yet fully
developed in children under the age of 6, please
consult a physician in regard to any problem
concerning 3D-images if necessary.

- Note that when using the 3D feature, the video
output may appear different from the original
video image due to image conversion on the
device.

DO NOT allow any unqualied person

*

to install the unit.

Be sure to ask your dealer to install the unit
(e.g.attaching it to the ceiling) since special
technical knowledge and skills are required
for installation. If installation is performed by

an unqualied person, it may cause personal

injury or electrical shock.

THX Certication

THX Certication

Established by lm producer George Lucas, THX aims to enhance the reproduction of
audio sound and video images intended by lmmakers by setting quality standards for

cinema viewing environments as well as home entertainment systems.
Based on the know-how that we have cultivated over the past 25 years in areas including

lm production, cinema viewing environment design, and audio/video editing, we have
established a partnership with JVC to develop an unprecedented home theater projector

system.

The emphases of THX Certication lie in the video quality and signal processing
capability of projector products. JVC projectors, DLA-RS50 and DLA-RS60, are equipped

with the THX mode, which is able to bring out the full potential of the projector when
playing movies on a large screen.

RS50

RS60

RS50

Also, JVC front projectors are the rst in the world (*1) to have gained the “THX 3D
Display Certication” (*2) by THX Ltd.

In addition, the certication standards were established with the aim to “faithfully
reproduce images at home according to the intentions of the lm director” during
playback of 2D or 3D images, and they are “a proof of high denition and high image
quality”, indicating that a certied product has cleared more than 400 rigorous image

quality tests including accuracy of color reproduction, cross-talk, viewing angles, and
video processing performance.

CAUTION

In order for you to enjoy 3D movies:

• Please get ready “3D glasses” and a “3D Sync Emitter” (both sold separately).

• Please read through “Safety Precautions” (Reference page: 4), and the precautions in
“Explanatory Notes on the 3D System” in “Operation Guide (Glossary)”

(Reference page: 57).

*1: “First” here refers to the rst among front projectors as at November 1,

2010 based on research by JVC.

*2: The recommended screen size is 90″ (16:9), and this is limited to front

projection only.
