Warnings

FCC Notice:

Caution: Changes or modifi cations not expressly approved by party responsible for

compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

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, or manually deselect them using the edit / skip feature on page 30.

Precautions

Avoiding Temporary Burn-in

Displaying fi xed images for extended periods of time can leave a subtle but temporary burn-in
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

TV on

For example...

Precautions

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.

7

Precautions

Disconnecting the stand

If you disconnect the stand, attach the bottom cover and the screw (supplied) into the hole.

1) Place the TV face down on a soft cloth on a table.

2) Remove the six screws from the back of the TV.

3) Pull out the stand from the TV.

4) Cover the hole with the supplied bottom cover and tighten the screw.

Notes:

• To re-install the stand, reverse the procedure from 4) to 1).

• If you fi nd it diffi cult to remove the screws from inset screw wells, use a magnetized
screwdriver.

Aspect

Allows you to adjust the way the image appears on your TV based on the format that is being
received.

Panorama - When watching a 4:3 aspect picture it 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
proportionally to fill the 16:9 screen.

Full - When watching a 4:3 aspect picture, it is stretched to fit the dimensions of the TV. When
watching a 16:9 aspect picture, it displays 95% of the ratio.

Panorama Zoom - When watching a High-Definition 16:9 aspect picture it is stretched to
eliminate the black side bars.

Cinema Zoom - This ratio “zooms in” on the center part of a High-Definition 16:9 aspect image
to eliminate the black surrounding bars.

Full Native - This ratio displays 100% of the ratio. Normally, all aspects except for Full Native
display about 95%.

Regular - When watching a 4:3 aspect picture without modifying the original picture to fit the
dimensions of your 16:9 screen. Black bars will appear along the picture’s sides. The picture
will be centered within the boundaries of the 16:9 screen.

Slim - This aspect mode shrinks the screen of a 16:9 broadcast 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.

Notes:

• Depending on the signal format, some aspect modes are unavailable.

• Slim can only be displayed when the signal is ATSC (480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i) or HD (720p,
1080i).

• If the television receives a 16:9 signal from your HDMI device, the aspect mode will turn to
Full automatically. If the television receives a 4:3 signal from your HDMI device when you are
in Full aspect mode, it will return to Regular aspect mode. If you change the aspect mode
after the television changed it to Full automatically, the television will change to the aspect
mode you choose. It also turns to Full automatically when the TV receives an HD (1080i or
720p) signal.

• You can access the aspect modes using the buttons on the side of the TV, by using the

MENU button, then – CH + button.

JVC Service Center where you purchased the television.

Troubleshooting

PROBLEMS CHECK

Screen is 80% black

Stereo or bilingual
programs can't be
heard

Static electricity

You hear occasional
crackling sounds

The picture is slightly
cut off when you use
1080p format only

The screen
disappears except for
the menu screen

My HDMI device
doesn’t work or
doesn’t work properly

No signal or
signal can not be
displayed

• The Closed Caption Text mode is on. Turn it off in the Closed Caption Menu, page 29.

• Make sure the MTS settings are correct. See page 37.

• 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.

• 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.

• This JVC television can accept a variety of HD signals, including 720/60p, 1080/60i and
1080/60p. It does not accept a 1080/24p signal. Please note that in some cases, a Blu-ray
may only offer the choice of 1080/60i or 1080/24p. In this case, it is necessary
to choose the 1080/60i output. Please refer to your Blu-ray manual for complete
details on choosing the correct output.

• This OSD appears when the digital channel that you have selected is too weak to receive or
no signal is being detected for that channel.

• It appears when that channel is not receiving a signal and you have the Noise Muting
function OFF and you have a single screen. It moves automatically every two seconds to
prevent the screen from burn-in.

• Even if "No signal or signal can not be displayed" appears on the screen, your timer
functions and auto shut off functions that you set, are still active.

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.

• 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.

Digital Television Transition Notice:

This device contains a digital television tuner, so it should receive digital over the air TV
programming, with a suitable antenna, after the end of full-power analog TV broadcasting in the
United States on February 17, 2009.

Some older television receivers, if they rely on a TV antenna, will need a TV Converter to receive
over the air digital programming, but should continue to work as before for other purposes (e.g.,
for watching low-power TV stations still broadcasting in analog, watching pre-recorded movies,
or playing video games).

For more information, see http://www.DTV.gov or call 1-888-CALL-FCC. For converter box
information, see http://www.dtv2009.gov or call the NTIA at 1–888–DTV–2009.
