(1) The design of this product contains special hardware,
many circuits and components specially for safety
purposes. For continued protection, no changes should be
made to the original design unless authorized in writing by
the manufacturer. Replacement parts must be identical to
those used in the original circuits. Service should be
performed by qualified personnel only.
(2) Alterations of the design or circuitry of the products should
not be made. Any design alterations or additions will void
the manufacturer's warranty and will further relieve the
manufacturer of responsibility for personal injury or
property damage resulting therefrom.
(3) Many electrical and mechanical parts in the products have
special safety-related characteristics. These
characteristics are often not evident from visual inspection
nor can the protection afforded by them necessarily be
obtained by using replacement components rated for
higher voltage, wattage, etc. Replacement parts which
have these special safety characteristics are identified in
the parts list of Service manual. Electrical components
having such features are identified by shading on the
schematics and by ( ) on the parts list in Service
manual. The use of a substitute replacement which does
not have the same safety characteristics as the
recommended replacement part shown in the parts list of
Service manual may cause shock, fire, or other hazards.
(4) Don't short between the LIVE side ground and
ISOLATED (NEUTRAL) side ground or EARTH side
ground when repairing.
Some model's power circuit is partly different in the GND.
The difference of the GND is shown by the LIVE : ( ) side
GND, the ISOLATED (NEUTRAL) : ( ) side GND and
EARTH : ( ) side GND.
Don't short between the LIVE side GND and ISOLATED
(NEUTRAL) side GND or EARTH side GND and never
measure the LIVE side GND and ISOLATED (NEUTRAL)
side GND or EARTH side GND at the same time with a
measuring apparatus (oscilloscope etc.). If above note will
not be kept, a fuse or any parts will be broken.
(5) When service is required, observe the original lead dress.
Extra precaution should be given to assure correct lead
dress in the high voltage circuit area. Where a short circuit
has occurred, those components that indicate evidence of
overheating should be replaced. Always use the
manufacturer's replacement components.
(6) Isolation Check (Safety for Electrical Shock Hazard)
After re-assembling the product, always perform an
isolation check on the exposed metal parts of the cabinet
(antenna terminals, video/audio input and output terminals,
Control knobs, metal cabinet, screw heads, earphone jack,
control shafts, etc.) to be sure the product is safe to operate
without danger of electrical shock.
a) Dielectric Strength Test
The isolation between the AC primary circuit and all metal
parts exposed to the user, particularly any exposed metal
part having a return path to the chassis should withstand a
voltage of 3000V AC (r.m.s.) for a period of one second. (.
. . . Withstand a voltage of 1100V AC (r.m.s.) to an
appliance rated up to 120V, and 3000V AC (r.m.s.) to an
appliance rated 200V or more, for a period of one second.)
This method of test requires a test equipment not generally
found in the service trade.
b) Leakage Current Check
Plug the AC line cord directly into the AC outlet (do not use
a line isolation transformer during this check.). Using a
"Leakage Current Tester", measure the leakage current
from each exposed metal part of the cabinet, particularly
any exposed metal part having a return path to the chassis,
to a known good earth ground (water pipe, etc.). Any
leakage current must not exceed 0.5mA AC (r.m.s.).
However, in tropical area, this must not exceed 0.2mA AC
(r.m.s.).
Alternate Check Method
Plug the AC line cord directly into the AC outlet (do not
use a line isolation transformer during this check.). Use
an AC voltmeter having 1000Ω per volt or more
sensitivity in the following manner. Connect a 1500Ω
10W resistor paralleled by a 0.15µF AC-type capacitor
between an exposed metal part and a known good earth
ground (water pipe, etc.). Measure the AC voltage
across the resistor with the AC voltmeter. Move the
resistor connection to each exposed metal part,
particularly any exposed metal part having a return path
to the chassis, and measure the AC voltage across the
resistor. Now, reverse the plug in the AC outlet and
repeat each measurement. Any voltage measured must
not exceed 0.75V AC (r.m.s.). This corresponds to
0.5mA AC (r.m.s.).
However, in tropical area, this must not exceed 0.3V AC
(r.m.s.). This corresponds to 0.2mA AC (r.m.s.).

1.2.4 NOTES ON HANDLING
(1) WHEN TAKING UNIT OUT OF A PACKING CASE
When taking the unit out of a packing case, do not grasp
the upper part of the unit. If you take the unit out while
grasping the upper part, the LCD PANEL may be damaged
because of a pressure. Instead of grasping the upper part,
put your hands on the lower backside or sides of the unit.
(2) AS FOR PRESSING OR TOUCHING A SPEAKER
Be careful not to press the opening of the speaker in the
lower part of the unit and around them since the decorative
sheet on the surface of the openings may be deformed.

1.3HANDLING LCD PANEL
1.3.1 PRECAUTIONS FOR TRANSPORTATION
When transporting the unit, pressure exerted on the internal LCD
panel due to improper handling (such as tossing and dropping)
may cause damages even when the unit is carefully packed. To
prevent accidents from occurring during transportation, pay
careful attention before delivery, such as through explaining the
handling instructions to transporters.
Ensure that the following requirements are met during
transportation, as the LCD panel of this unit is made of glass and
therefore fragile:
(1) USE A SPECIAL PACKING CASE FOR THE LCD PANEL
When transporting the LCD panel of the unit, use a special
packing case (packing materials). A special packing case
is used when a LCD panel is supplied as a service spare
part.
(2) ATTACH PROTECTION SHEET TO THE FRONT
Since the front (display part) of the panel is vulnerable,
attach the protection sheet to the front of the LCD panel
before transportation. Protection sheet is used when a LCD
panel is supplied as a service spare part.
(3) AVOID VIBRATIONS AND IMPACTS
The unit may be broken if it is toppled sideways even when
properly packed. Continuous vibration may shift the gap of
the panel, and the unit may not be able to display images
properly. Ensure that the unit is carried by at least 2
persons and pay careful attention not to exert any vibration
or impact on it.
(4) DO NOT PLACE EQUIPMENT HORIZONTALLY
Ensure that it is placed upright and not horizontally during
transportation and storage as the LCD panel is very
vulnerable to lateral impacts and may break. During
transportation, ensure that the unit is loaded along the
traveling direction of the vehicle, and avoid stacking them
on one another. For storage, ensure that they are stacked
in 2 layers or less even when placed upright.
1.3.2OPTICAL FILTER (ON THE FRONT OF THE LCD PANEL)
(1) Avoid placing the unit under direct sunlight over a
prolonged period of time. This may cause the optical filter
to deteriorate in quality and color.
(2) Clean the filter surface by wiping it softly and lightly with a
soft and lightly fuzz cloth (such as outing flannel).
(3) Do not use solvents such as benzene or thinner to wipe the
filter surface. This may cause the filter to deteriorate in
quality or the coating on the surface to come off. When
cleaning the filter, usually use the neutral detergent diluted
with water. When cleaning the dirty filter, use water-diluted
ethanol.
(4) Since the filter surface is fragile, do not scratch or hit it with
hard materials. Be careful enough not to touch the front
surface, especially when taking the unit out of the packing
case or during transportation.
1.3.3 PRECAUTIONS FOR REPLACEMENT OF EXTERIOR
PARTS
Take note of the following when replacing exterior parts (REAR
COVER, FRONT PANEL, etc.):
(1) Do not exert pressure on the front of the LCD panel (filter
surface). It may cause irregular color.
(2) Pay careful attention not to scratch or stain the front of the
LCD panel (filter surface) with hands.
(3) When replacing exterior parts, the front (LCD panel) should
be placed facing downward. Place a mat, etc. underneath
to avoid causing scratches to the front (filter surface).

TROUBLESHOOTING
5.1SELF CHECK FEATURE
5.1.1 OUTLINE
This unit comes with the "Self check" feature, which checks the
operational state of the circuit and displays/saves it during
failure.Diagnosis is performed when power is turned on, and
information input to the main microcomputer is monitored at all
time. Diagnosis is displayed in 2 ways via screen display and
LED flashes. Failure detection is based on input state of I
and the various control lines connected to the main
microcomputer.
5.1.2 HOW TO ENTER THE SELF CHECK MODE
Before entering the Self check Display mode, confirm that the
setting of TV/CATV SW of the REMOTE CONTROL UNIT is at
the "TV" side and the setting of VCR/DVD SW is at the "VCR"
side. If the switches have not been properly set, you cannot enter
the Self check Display mode.
(1) Set to "0 minutes" using the [SLEEP TIMER] key.
(2) Press the [VIDEO STATUS] key and [DISPLAY] key
simultaneously, then enter the service mode.
(3) Press the [2] key (SELF CHECK) before the service mode
screen disappears.
(4) Press the [SLEEP TIMER] key to enter Page 2 of the SELF
CHECK MODE.
• When the [RETURN+] key pressed, the first page
change screen.
NOTE:
When a number key other than the [2] key is pressed in
the SERVICE MENU SCREEN, the other relevant
screen may be displayed.
This is not used in the SELF CHECK. Press the [MENU]
key to return to the SERVICE MENU SCREEN.
5.1.3 HOW TO EXIT THE SELF CHECK MODE
TO SAVE FAILURE HISTORY:
Turn off the power by unplugging the AC power cord plug when
in the Self check display mode.
TO CLEAR (RESET) FAILURE HISTORY:
Turn off the power by pressing the [POWER] key on the remote
control unit when in the Self check display mode.

5.1.5 POINTS TO NOTE WHEN USING THE SELF CHECK
FEATURE
In addition to circuit failures (abnormal operation), the following
cases may also be diagnosed as "Abnormal" and displayed and
counted as "NG".
(1) Temporary defective transmissions across circuits due to
pulse interruptions
(2) Misalignment in the on/off timing of power for I
2
C bus
(VCC) when turning on/off the main power.
Diagnosis may be impeded if a large number of items are
displayed as "NG". As such, start Self check check only after 3
seconds in the case of receivers and 5 seconds in the case of
panels upon turning on the power. If recurrences are expected,
ensure to clear (reset) the failure history and record the new
diagnosis reults.

Warnings
We have an important note for customers who subscribe to basic cable services (do not have
a separate cable box) and plan to use their JVC TV remote control to select channels.
Once you run the Auto Tuner Setup (which detects and programs all the channels your TV is
receiving through the RF input), every channel number available from your cable company
will appear in your television’s Channel Summary and they will all be marked as available for
scanning. Even though every channel is detected and appears as available, you will only be
able to view those that you specifi cally subscribe to from your cable company. This will likely
mean there are blank channels between those channels you wish to scan or “surf”.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause but it is important to note that this is
not a malfunction of your television. If you want to sequentially scan those channels you
subscribe to without blank ones in between, you can contact your cable company for their
cable box and remote.
Avoiding Ghost Images
Displaying fi xed images for extended periods of time can leave a subtle but temporary ghost
image on your screen. 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.

Warnings (Continued...)
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.

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).
Slide the cover on the back of the remote down
towards the bottom of the remote control. Insert
two batteries (included) carefully noting the “+”
and “–” markings, placing the “–” end in the unit
first. Slide 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 27 - 30.
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 M
ENU button.

• Some decoders may not respond depending on the equipment that you have connected
when it is connected to the HDMI.
• If the HDMI output device signal is changed (for example, 480i/60Hz is changed to
480p/60Hz), the screen may turn green and there may be some distortion for a short time
until the signal becomes stable.
• When you have an HDMI device connected to the HDMI 1 connection on the back of your TV,
your TV detects it, and blocks the analog audio signal coming into the "FOR HDMI 1" jacks.
Therefore, you can not hear any analog sound from the other device conected to the "FOR

V-Chip has no effect on video signals from DVD discs or Camcorder connection.
Note: Some programs, and movies are broadcast without a ratings signal. Even if you set
up V-CHIP ratings limits, these programs will not be blocked. See page 38 for information on
how to block unrated programs.
Note (for Canadian viewers): The V-Chip function is based on specifications designed for
the United States and therefore may not work properly in Canada.
You can customize the V-Chip settings of your television to match your personal tastes. The
V-Chip menu below is the starting point for your V-Chip settings
You can use US V-Chip settings (for programming broadcast from the United States), Canadian
V-Chip settings (for programming broadcast from Canada), and movie ratings. You may use
any or all of the settings (US V-Chip, Canada V-Chip, Movie ratings). Descriptions for setting
each of the three V-Chip formats appear in the next six pages along with descriptions of the
rating categories.

Movies Ratings
❒ NR – Not Rated
This is a film which has no rating. In many cases these films were imported from countries
which do not use the MPAA ratings system. Other NR films may be from amateur producers
who didn’t intend to have their film widely released.
NR (Not Rated) Programming may contain all types of programming including children’s
programming, foreign programs, or adult material.
❒ G – General Audience
In the opinion of the review board, these films contain nothing in the way of sexual content,
violence, or language that would be unsuitable for audiences of any age.
❒ PG – Parental Guidance
Parental Guidance means the movie may contain some contents such as mild violence,
some brief nudity, and strong language. The contents are not deemed intense.
❒ PG-13 – Parents Strongly Cautioned
Parents with children under 13 are cautioned that the content of movies with this rating may
include more explicit sexual, language, and violence content than movies rated PG.
❒ R – Restricted
These films contain material that is explicit in nature and is not recommended for
unsupervised children under the age of 17.
❒ NC-17 – No One Under 17
These movies contain content which most parents would feel is too adult for their children
to view. Content can consist of strong language, nudity, violence, and suggestive or explicit
subject matter.
❒ X – No One under 18
Inappropriate material for anyone under 18.

Dynamic Gamma
JVC's Dynamic Gamma Circuitry (DGC) makes it easier to see dark areas when a picture
has many dark areas, and makes it easier to see the bright areas when a picture has many
bright areas. DGC is turned on, DGC analyzes and adjusts the total level of picture brightness
balance, especially in dark areas where the level of grayscale is often lost, turning completely
to black DGC automatically enhances the detail in these dark areas providing a more dynamic
image with fi ner detail, so the optimum picture settings are automatically set for each picture.
Normally use with DGC on.

center part of a 4:3 aspect picture, blowing
it up to fill the 16:9 screen.
FULL - This is the ratio to use when
watching 16:9 High-Definition broadcasts.
REGULAR - The regular ratio is used
when you want to watch a 4:3 broadcast
or recorded program without modifying the
original picture to fit the dimensions of your
16:9 screen. The 4:3 picture will fill the
screen from top to bottom, while black bars
will appear to fill up the remaining space
along the picture’s sides. The 4:3 picture
will be centered within the boundaries of the
16:9 screen.

screen of 16:9 to 4:3. There are some
programming that is already stretched by
mistake at broadcasting companies, so
this mode corrects it. Black side bars will
appear.

Troubleshooting
Refer to the table below to check the condition. If you think that there is a problem, contact the
JVC Service Center where you purchased the television.
PROBLEMS CHECK
There is no power
• See if the power cord became unplugged.
• Check for a blown fuse or circuit breaker or a power outage.
There is no picture
or sound
Remote control is not
operating properly or
at all
You cannot select a
certain channel
The power turns off
by itself
It does not operate
correctly
The clock is wrong
• The antenna could be disconnected.
• The input mode could be set improperly. See page 64.
• The tuner (Auto Tuner Setup) could be set improperly. See page 34.
• The TV station may be having difficulties. Check to see if other stations are working.
• Use the HDMI cable with HDMI logo . See page 20.
• You can not output audio using the AUDIO OUTPUT under the following conditions:
1) When you have digital sound from an HDMI device connected to the HDMI 1 or
HDMI 2 connection on the back of your TV. (See page 20).
2) When you have analog sound from a DVI device connected to the
AUDIO IN "FOR HDMI 1" connection. (See page 19).
• When you have an HDMI device connected to the HDMI 1 connection on the back of your
TV, your TV detects it, and blocks the analog audio signal coming into the "FOR HDMI 1”
jacks. Therefore, you can not hear any analog sound from the other device conected to the
"FOR HDMI 1" jacks, while you are viewing the images from the HDMI device.
(See page 20).
• Check to see that the batteries are still working and properly installed.
• Make sure the remote has a clear sight path to the TV.
• Check that the TV/CATV switch is in the proper position.
• You may be too far from the TV. You must be within 23 feet (7 meters).
• Make sure the channels have been programmed. See "Channel Summary", page 35.
• Check to see if the channel is locked. See "Channel Summary - Lock" page 36.
• Make sure the set did not become unplugged.
• Perhaps the On/Off Timer is set. See page 61.
• Check to see if the Sleep Timer was set. See page 67.
• This television is operated by a microprocessor. It is possible that external noise or
interference is causing the problem. If the television does not function correctly, remove the
