Finitura lucida
Handling the glossy finish of the TV (LT-42ED91G only) ENGLISH
Be careful when handling the glossy finish of the TV
The glossy finish of the TV scratches easily.
z Protection films have been pasted onto the glossy finish of the TV to prevent scratches. Peel off the
films after the TV has been placed properly.
z If the glossy finish gets dirty, clear the dust off the glossy finish first. Then wipe softly with the
cleaning cloth provided. If you do not clear the dust first, or you wipe the glossy finish too hard, or a
cleaning cloth other than the one provided is used, the glossy finish may be scratched.
Behandlung der Lackierung des Fernsehgeräts (nur LT-42ED91G) DEUTSCH
Gehen Sie sorgsam mit der Glanzlackierung des TV-Geräts um
Die Lackierung verkratzt leicht.
z Auf die Glanzlackierung des TV-Geräts wurde ein Schutzfilm aufgetragen, um Kratzer zu
verhindern. Ziehen Sie diesen Film ab, nachdem Sie das Gerät ordnungsgemäß aufgestellt haben.
z Bei Verschmutzungen der Glanzlackierung zunächst Staubablagerungen entfernen. Danach sanft
mit dem beiliegenden Reinigungstuch abwischen. Wenn Sie es versäumen, den Staub zuvor zu
entfernen, die Glanzlackierung zu stark abreiben oder ein anderes als das beiliegende
Reinigungstuch verwendet wird, können Kratzer an der Glanzlackierung auftreten.
Toucher le fini lustré du téléviseur (
LT-42ED91G seulement)
FRANÇAIS
Soyez prudent lorsque vous touchez au fini lustré du téléviseur
Le fini lustré du téléviseur s’égratigne facilement.
z Des films de protection ont été collés sur le fini lustré du téléviseur afin d’empêcher les
égratignures. Retirez les films après avoir placé le téléviseur.
z Si le fini lustré devient sale, retirez d’abord la poussière se trouvant sur le fini lustré. Essuyez
ensuite à l’aide du chiffon de nettoyage fourni. Si vous ne retirez pas d’abord la poussière, si vous
essuyez le fini lustré avec une force excessive ou si vous utilisez un chiffon autre que celui fourni,
vous pouvez égratigner le fini lustré.
Maneggio della finitura lucida del televisore (Solo LT-42ED91G)ITALIANO
Fare attenzione con il maneggio della finitura lucida del televisore
La finitura lucida del televisore si graffia facilmente.
z Pellicole di protezione sono state incollate alla finitura lucida del televisore per prevenire i graffi.
Staccare le pellicole dopo il posizionamento del televisore.
z Se la finitura lucida si sporca, rimuovere innanzitutto la polvere dalla finitura del televisore. Quindi
pulire delicatamente con il panno in dotazione. Se non si pulisce innanzitutto la polvere, o se si
strofina la finitura lucida troppo duramente, o se si utilizza un panno per la pulizia diverso da quello
fornito, la finitura lucida potrebbe graffiarsi.

Technical Information
What is “T-V LINK”?
“T-V LINK” allows the TV to share information easily with a connected “T-V LINK” compatible device.
By using T-V LINK:
z You can send the channel information programmed on the TV to the “T-V LINK” compatible device, so that both
the TV and the external device have the same channel settings. When connecting a new external device,
channel information is loaded into it, allowing channel setup to be completed very quickly. For more details,
refer to the external device’s manual.
z You can easily record the TV programme you are viewing on a “T-V LINK” compatible device by using the
“Direct Rec” feature. For more details, refer to the external device’s manual.
What is “ACI” (Automatic Channel Installation)?
Some cable companies transmit a signal called “ACI” which contains information that allows TV channels to be
registered automatically on your TV.
When an ACI signal is received, “ACI Start / ACI Skip” appears in the “Auto Program” screen.
Receivable broadcast systems
Depending on the country selected during “Auto Program”, the receivable broadcast system differs.
z UNITED KINGDOM: Receive only PAL-I.
z FRANCE: Can receive SECAM-L.
To receive SECAM-L in countries other than France:
1) Change the “Country” to “France” in “Auto Program”. (P. 44)
2) Press the “BACK” button to return to the menu and enter the channel using “Insert” or “Manual”. (P. 21)
PC signals that can be displayed
z If the signal doesn’t appear, check that the
vertical frequency on the PC is set to “60Hz”.
Connect a DVI device to EXT-5 (HDMI) using DVI-HDMI conversion cable. Connect analogue sound output of the
DVI device to L and R terminals in EXT-4.
z Set “Audio” in “HDMI Setting” to “Analogue” or “Auto” g (P. 45)
z EXT-6 input of LT-37ED91G/T, EXT-6 and EXT-7 inputs of LT-42ED91G do not support analogue sound

What is “HDMI CEC”?
HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) allows the TV to connect and control multiple HDMI CEC enabled
devices with a single remote. CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) is an optional protocol used in HDMI.
z HDMI CEC on this TV is compliant with “High-Definition Multimedia Interface Specification”.
z The TV does not support HDMI CEC functions that are not listed below.
z The TV does not guarantee to support use of all HDMI CEC enabled devices.
z Devices that are not enabled to HDMI CEC cannot be controlled with this TV.
Control the TV using the HDMI CEC enabled device
z Turn the TV on and switch to the video source of the operating device.

* Information regarding behaviour of the device when status is received, refer to the external device’s manual.
Turning On / Off HDMI CEC:
z Set HDMI CEC g “HDMI Setting” (P. 45)
* Factory default setting is “On”.
If “HDMI CEC” does not work correctly:
z When HDMI CEC enabled device is connected to EXT-1 or EXT-2 with SCART cable and EXT-5 or EXT-6 (or
EXT-7 of LT-42ED91G) with HDMI cable, you may not be able to control TV’s external input. To solve the
problem set “HDMI CEC” to “Off”.

What
is
With the full HD LCD display and “Full Native”, you can enjoy full native HD resolution of 1920 x 1080. It exposes
flaws in the video that were hidden when viewing on “Full”.
* The illustrations are emphasised to make clear differences between “Full” and “Full Native”.
z Dark bar or noise may appear at the edges of the screen when viewing in “Full Native” for some videos. This is
resulted from the signal itself, not due to TV malfunction.
z You cannot change the screen size from “Full Native” when receiving the 1080p (1125p) signal.
What is “Full Native”? (LT-42ED91G only)
FullFull Native
100Hz Clear Motion Drive
Most conventional LCD panel uses 50 frames per second (50 Hz) to display an image which needs long holding
time (time it takes to display single frame), causing blurring or ghost images when there is rapid or complex
movement across the screen - a phenomenon common to all LCD panels.
This TV is equipped with JVC’s original “100Hz Clear Motion Drive” technology, which displays two frames (the
original plus the new interpolated frame) in the time a 50 Hz set displays a single frame. Resulting to double the
typical rate, 100 frames per second (100 Hz) and half the holding time without reducing brightness or contrast.
By using this technology you will be able to reduce blurring or ghost images when there is rapid or complex
movement across the screen.
By using “Auto Demonstration”, you can display the differences between conventional LCD (50 Hz) and LCD panel
equipped with “100Hz Clear Motion Drive”.
The “100Hz Clear Motion
Drive” ticker for LT-42ED91G
