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
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.
Tidying the cables
A cable holder which keeps your connection cables tidy is attached to the back of the stand.
Note:
• This illustration is for models LT-37X688, LT-42X688, LT-37XM48 and LT-42XM48. The rear
panel for models LT-42X788 and LT-47X788 are slightly different in shape.

Warnings
Disconnecting the stand
If you disconnect the stand, attach the bottom cover and the screw (supplied) into the hole.
This illustration is for models LT-37X688, LT-42X688, LT-37XM48 and LT-42XM48. You can disconnect the stand for models LT-42X788 and LT-47X788 using the same method.
1) Place the TV face down on a soft cloth on a table.
2) Remove the four screws from the back of the TV.
3) Pull out the stand from the TV.
4) Cover the hole with a bottom cover and tighten the screw.
Note:
• To re-install the stand, reverse the procedure from 4) to 1).

Quick Setup

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).
Raise the latch on the remote's back cover to remove. Insert two batteries, carefully noting the "+" and "–" markings. Place 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 (ex. VCR, DVD) may have to be reset. See pages 67 - 72.
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.
• At first, to watch your TV, select the TV mode by pressing the MODE button on the remote control before you turn the TV power on.
• See page 58 to 66 for details regarding the remote control buttons.
Using Menu Buttons
To use the menu functions, press the MENU button. Next, select a menu using the four arrow keys. The four arrow keys are used only for menu selections.

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 V3 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 V3 Input as the V3 Smart Input. In this case we recommend using the S-Video connection.

V-Chip

Your TV is equipped with V-Chip technology which enables you to block channels or content that you feel to be inappropriate for children, based on US and Canada rating guidelines. V-Chip has no effect on video signals from a DVD discs, VCR tapes 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 35 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.

Most parents would find such programs suitable for children 7 and above. These programs may contain some mild fantasy violence or comedic violence, which children should be able to discern from reality.
Programs with the following ratings are designed for the entire audience. TV G stands for General Audience
Most parents would find these programs suitable for all age groups. They contain little or no violence, no strong language, and little or no sexual dialog or situations.

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.

Aspect

This feature will help you adjust the picture you are watching to give you the best possible picture quality.
Aspect Ratios
Panorama - With this ratio a normal
4:3 aspect picture is stretched to fit the dimensions of the 16:9 aspect screen.
Cinema - This ratio “zooms in” on the 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.
Panorama Zoom - This ratio stretches the High-Definition 16:9 aspect image to eliminate the black side bars.
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.
Slim - This aspect mode shrinks the 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.
Full Native - This ratio displays 100% of the ratio. Normally, all aspects except for Full Native display about 95%.
Cinema Zoom - This ratio stretches the High-Definition 16:9 aspect image to eliminate the black surrounding bars.

• There could be interference from a high-wattage appliance, like a hairdryer or vacuum, operating nearby. Move the antenna away from the appliance or change to a coaxial cable connection which is less prone to interference.
• A building or passing airplane can reflect the original signal and produce a second, slightly delayed one. Adjust your antenna position.
• Your antenna may be damaged, disconnected or turned. Check the antenna connection. If the antenna is damaged, replace it.
• The Closed Caption Text mode is on. Turn it off in the Closed Caption Menu, page 37.
• Make sure the MTS settings are correct. See page 64.
Troubleshooting
PROBLEMS CHECK
Static electricity
You hear occasional crackling sounds
It does not operate correctly
The picture is slightly cut off when you use 1080p format only
The screen disappears except for the menu screen
The following are not malfunctions.
• The television may make a creaking sound if the temperature of the room or the
temperature of the inside of the television changes. If there is no problem with the screen or sound, then there is no need to worry.
• Although the picture may be temporarily disturbed and noise may be seen on the screen if the power is turned on immediately after it has been turned off, this is not a malfunction.
• It is normal to feel static electricity if you brush or touch the screen.
• It is normal for the TV to make crackling sounds when first turned on or off. Unless the sound or picture become abnormal, this is fine.
• Press the CHANNEL- and VOLUME- buttons on the side panel of the TV simultaneously for a few seconds. The Digital Tuner will be reset. If this does not reset it correctly, unplug the power cord and plug it back in.
• Change the picture format setting on your external device to 1080i or other resolution.
• This occurs when you select a digital menu when your input source is from the HDMI connection. Press the menu button.
