PRECAUTIONS
Use only the power source specified on the unit. (120 V AC/230 V AC, 50 Hz/60Hz)
When not using this unit for a long period of time, or when cleaning it, be sure to disconnect the power plug from the AC outlet.
Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. And do not place this unit where people will tread on the cord. Do not overload wall outlets or power cords as this can result in a fire or electric shock.
Avoid using this unit under the following conditions: – in extremely hot, cold or humid places, – in dusty places, – near appliances generating strong magnetic fields, – in places subject to direct sunlight, – in badly ventilated places, – in automobiles with doors closed.
Do not cover the ventilation slots while in operation as this could obstruct the required ventilation flow.
When dust accumulates on the screen surface, clean it with a soft cloth.
Unplug this unit from the AC outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: – when the power cord is frayed or the plug is damaged, – if liquid has been spilled into the unit, – if the unit has been dropped or the cabinet has been
damaged,
– when the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance.
Do not attempt to service this unit yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Always refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
When replacement parts are required, have the service personnel verify in writing that the replacement parts he/ she uses have the same safety characteristics as the original parts. Use of manufacture’s specified replacement parts can prevent fire, shock, or other hazards.

When this unit reaches the end of its useful life, improper disposal could result in a picture tube implosion. Ask qualified service personnel to dispose of this unit.
This monitor is equipped with a 3-blade grounding-type plug to satisfy FCC rule. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician.
Machine Noise Information Ordinance 3. GSGV, January 18, 1991: The sound pressure level at the operator position is equal or less than 70 dB(A) according to ISO 7779.
Improper operations, in particular alternation of high voltage or changing the type of tube may result in x-ray emission of considerable dose. A unit altered in such a way no longer meets the standards of certification, and must therefore no longer be operated.
FCC INFORMATION (U.S.A. only)
CAUTION: Changes or modification not approved by
JVC could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: – Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. – Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

Points to be checked
Is the power plug loosened or disconnected? Is the video signal output from the connected
component? Is the input signal selected properly?
Is the video cable disconnected?
Is the audio signal output from the connected component?
Is the volume output set to minimum?
Is the audio cable disconnected?
Is the monitor close to a device generating a strong magnetic field?
Is the color system selected properly?
Has the picture control setting (CONTRAST, BRIGHT, CHROMA or PHASE) been changed?
Is the monitor close to a speaker, magnet or any other device generating a strong magnetic field?
Is the aspect ratio set to 16:9?
Has control of the buttons been locked? (Has the CONTROL LOCK function been set to ON?)
Is input selection under external control? (Has the INPUT REMOTE function been set to valid (A/B)?)
Measures (Remedy)
Firmly insert the power plug. Set the connected component correctly.
Select the required video signal input with the Input select button. (See page 7.)
Connect the video signal cable firmly. (See page 12.)
Set the connected component correctly.
Adjust the speaker volume with the VOLUME/ SELECT button. (See page 7.)
Connect the audio signal cable firmly. (See page 12.)
Move the device away from the monitor until the picture stabilizes.
Set COLOR SYSTEM in the <MENU> screen to AUTO. (See page 8.)
Set each picture control to the standard setting. (See page 7.)
Move the device away from the monitor and turn the monitors power off. Wait at least 30 minutes, then turn the power on again.
Set ASPECT RATIO in the <MENU> screen to [4 : 3 (4 – 3)]. (See page 8.) When controlling externally, ASPECT RATIO should be set to [4 : 3 (4 – 3)]. (See page 12.)
Set CONTROL LOCK in the <SET-UP MENU> screen to OFF. (See pages 9 and 10.)
Set INPUT REMOTE in the <SET-UP MENU> screen to OFF. (See pages 9 and 10.)
TROUBLESHOOTING
Solutions to common problems related to your monitor are described here. If none of the solutions presented here solves the problem, unplug the monitor and consult a JVC-authorized dealer or service center for assistance.
The following are not malfunctions:
When a bright still image (such as a white cloth) is displayed for a long period, it may appear to be colored. This is due to the structure of the cathode ray tube and will be deleted when another image is displayed.
You experience a mild electric shock when you touch the picture tube. This phenomenon is due to a normal buildup of static electricity on the CRT and is not harmful.
The monitor emits a strange sound when the room temperature changes suddenly. This is only a problem if an abnormality appears on the screen as well.
If two or more monitors are operated next to each other, their images may shake or be distorted. This phenomenon is due to mutual interference; it is not a malfunction. Move the monitors away from each other until the interference disappears or turn the power off on any monitor that is not being used.

Notes:
Before connecting your system, make sure that all units are turned off.
The illustration below shows some examples of different connections. Terminal connections may differ depending on the component connected.
Be sure to refer to the instructions provided with the unit(s) you are connecting.
Each pair of input (IN) and output (OUT) terminals are bridge-connected.
If you’re not connecting any equipment to a bridged output (OUT) terminal, be sure not to connect any other cables to the bridged output (OUT)
terminal as this will cause the terminating resistance switch to open (auto terminate function).
When making a bridge connection, connect the input (IN) and output (OUT) terminals on the monitor to separate video components.
(For example, if both terminals are connected to the same VCR, resonance may occur except during playback. This is caused by the same video signal looping between the VCRs, and is not a malfunction.)
Select the video input (INPUT A (VIDEO) or INPUT B (VIDEO)) with the INPUT SELECT buttons on the front panel.
The ASPECT RATIO or INPUT A/B settings can be controlled via the REMOTE terminal by setting ASPECT REMOTE or INPUT REMOTE in the
<SET-UP MENU> screen to valid. (Refer to pages 9 and 10.)
