IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

CAUTION:

Please read and retain for your safety.

Electrical energy can perfor m many useful functions. This TV set has been engineered and manufactured to assure your personal safety. But improper use can result in poten- tial electrical shock or fire hazards. In order not to defeat the safeguards incorporated in this TV set, observe the following basic rules for its installation, use and servicing. And also follow all war nings and instructions marked on your TV set.

INSTALLATION

1 Your TV set is equipped with a polarized AC line plug (one blade of the plug is wider

than the other).

This safety feature allows the plug to fit into the power outlet only one way. Should you be unable to inser t the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. Should it still fail to fit, contact your electrician.

2 Operate the TV set only from a power source as indicated on the TV set or refer to the

operating instructions for this infor mation. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your TV set dealer or local power company. For battery operation, refer to the operating instructions.

3 Overloaded AC outlets and extension cords are dangerous, and so are frayed power

cords and broken plugs. They may result in a shock or fire hazard. Call your service technician for replacement.

4 Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord, and do not place the TV

set where power cord is subject to traffic or abuse. This may result in a shock or fire hazard.

5 Do not use this TV set near water — for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen

sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near swimming pool, etc.

6 If an outside antenna is connected to the TV set, be sure the antenna system is

grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code provides infor mation with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection requirements for the grounding electrode.

(POLARIZED-TYPE)

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARDS, DO NOT

EXPOSE THIS TV SET TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

CAUTION: TO INSURE PERSONAL SAFETY, OBSERVE THE

FOLLOWING RULES REGARDING THE USE OF THIS UNIT.

1. Operate only from the power source specified on the unit.

2. Avoid damaging the AC plug and power cord.

3. Avoid Improper installation and never position the unit where good ventilation is unattainable.

4. Do not allow objects or liquid into the cabinet openings.

5. In the event of trouble, unplug the unit and call a service technician. Do not attempt to repair it yourself or remove the rear cover.

Changes or modifications not approved by JVC could void the warranty.

* When you don’t use this TV set for a long period of time, be sure to disconnect both the power plug from the AC outlet and antenna for your safety.

* To prevent electric shock do not use this polarized plug with an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.

CAUTION:To reduce the risk of electric shock.

Do not remove cover (or back).

No user serviceable parts inside.

Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

CAUTION

TM-2001U

TM-2701SU

13 For added protection of the TV set during a lightning stor m or when the TV set is to be left

unattended for an extended period of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage to product due to lightning storms or power line surges.

14 A TV set and cart combination should be moved with

care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the TV set and cart combination to overturn.

SERVICE

15 Unplug this TV set from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service per-

sonnel under the following conditions: A. When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed. B. If liquid has been spilled into the TV set. C. If the TV set has been exposed to rain or water. D. If the TV set does not operate normally by following the operating instructions.

Adjust only those controls that are covered in the operating instructions as improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require

extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the TV set to normal operation. E. If the TV set has been dropped or damaged in any way. F. When the TV set exhibits a distinct change in performance — this indicates a

need for service.

16 Do not attempt to service this TV set yourself as opening or removing covers may

expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

17 When replacement parts are required, have the service technician verify in writing

that the replacement parts he uses have the same safety characteristics as the original parts. Use of manufacturer’s specified replacement parts can prevent fire, shock, or other hazards.

18 Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV set, please ask the service techni-

cian to perform the safety check described in the manufacturer’s service literature.

19 When a TV set reaches the end of its useful life, improper disposal could result in a pic-

ture tube implosion. Ask a qualified service technician to dispose of the TV set.

20 Note to CATV system installer.

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 82040 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

7 An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power

lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

8 TV sets are provided with ventilation openings in the cabinet to allow heat generated

during operation to be released. Therefore: — Never block the bottom ventilation slots of a portable TV set by placing it on a

bed, sofa, rug, etc. — Never place a TV set in a “built-in” enclosure unless proper ventilation is provided. — Never cover the openings with a cloth or other material. — Never place the TV set near or over a radiator or heat register.

9 To avoid personal injury:

— Do not place a TV set on a sloping shelf unless properly secured. — Use only a cart or stand recommended by the TV set manufacturer. — Do not try to roll a cart with small casters across thresholds or deep pile carpets. — Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should

use a mounting kit approved by the manufacturer.

USE

10 Caution children about dropping or pushing objects into the TV set through cabinet openings.

Some internal parts carry hazardous voltages and contact can result in a fire or electrical shock.

11 Unplug the TV set from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or an

aerosol cleaner.

12 Never add accessories to a TV set that has not been designed for this purpose.

Such additions may result in a hazard.

Changing the Batteries

Push down on the remote’s back cover and slide towards the bottom to remove it. Insert two AAbatteries (supplied), carefully noting the "+" and "-" markings on the batteries and on the remote

control. T o avoid a potential short circuit, insert the "-" end first. Be sure to use only size AA batteries. When batteries are installed, slide the cover back into place (until it clicks into position).

• If the remote control acts erratically, replace the batteries. Typical battery life is six months to one

year. We recommend using alkaline batteries for longer battery life.

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 may have to be reset (page 16-18).

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.

❒ TV PG Parental Guidance Suggested.

May contain some, but not much, strong language, limited violence, and some suggestive sexual dialog or situations. It is recommended that parents watch these programs first, or with their children.

❒ TV 14 Parents Strongly Cautioned.

Programs contain some material that may be unsuitable for children under the age of 14 including possible intense violence, sexual situations, strong coarse language, or intensely suggestive dialog. Parents are cautioned against unattended viewing by children under 14.

When a viewer attempts to watch a blocked channel, this message appears:

The channel will remain blocked until the correct lock code is entered (see page 29 for information on setting your lock code).

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.
