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 specifically 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 fixed 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

For example...

 

TV on

TV off

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

XYZ

XYZ

 

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.

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).

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 MENU button.

HDMI to DVI Cable

After the connections have been made, tighten the screw to secure the cables.

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 INPUT

"FOR HDMI 1" on the back of your television.

3)Connect a white cable from the DTV decoder LEFT AUDIO OUT, to the LEFT AUDIO INPUT "FOR HDMI 1" 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 52.)

When you do the above connection, set DIGITAL-IN1 AUDIO in the Initial Setup menu to ANALOG. See "DIGITAL-IN1 AUDIO", page 52.

The Analog Audio input can only be used with the HDMI 1 input.

When setting the “DIGITAL AUDIO – ANALOG / DIGITAL” menu setting on the TV, please note that this setting only effects the HDMI 1 jack and that if you use a DVI to HDMI adapter this connection must be made to the HDMI 1 along with analog audio cables.

HDMI Cable

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

Notes:

When you do the above connection, set DIGITAL-IN1 AUDIO in the Initial Setup menu to

DIGITAL. See "DIGITAL-IN1 AUDIO", page 52.

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 HDMI 1" jacks, while you are viewing the images from the HDMI device.
