䡵 PRECAUTIONS
● Use only the power source specified on the unit.
● Keep flammable material, water, and metal objects away
from the unit — especially the interior of the unit.
● This unit incorporates high voltage circuitry.
For your own safety and that of your equipment, do not
attempt to modify or disassemble this monitor.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
● Unplug the monitor when you’re not going to be using it
for a long period.
INFORMATION
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 A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is operated in
a commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in
which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense.
䡵 HANDLING
● Avoid shocks or vibrations. These may damage the unit
and cause it to malfunction.
● Do not block the ventilation slots.
● Do not expose this unit to high temperatures.
Extended exposure to direct sunlight or a heater could
deform the cabinet or cause the performance of internal
components to deteriorate.
● Do not place the unit near appliances generating strong
electric or magnetic fields. These can generate picture
noise and instability.
● Keep the monitor clean by wiping the cabinet and CRT
screen with a piece of soft cloth. Do not apply thinner or
benzene. These chemicals can damage the finish and
erase printed letters. When the unit is excessively dirty,
use a diluted neutral cleanser, then wipe away the
cleanser with a dry cloth.
SCREEN BURN
● It is not recommended to keep a certain still image
displayed on screen for a long time as well a dispalying
extremely bright images on screen. This may cause a
burning (sticking) phemomenon on the screen of cathoderay tube.
This problem does not occur as far as displaying normal
video playback motion images.

Note:
● The monitor may be equipped with a 3-blade grounding-type plug. If you are unable to insert the plug into

Notes:
● The illustration above only shows some possible connection examples, for reference. Terminal types and/or connections
may differ according to the component connected. Also refer to the Instruction Manual of the component to be connected.
● Before connecting, be sure to turn off the power of all the components.
● For video signal connection, use only a 75 Ω coaxial cable.
● Input and output terminals for video or audio (The TM-A9UCV is not equipped with audio terminals.) are bridge-connected.
Do not apply two input signals to both (input and output) terminals at the same time.
● For a bridge (loop) connection, connect each of input and output terminals on the monitor to separate video components.
For example, if both of them are connected to a video recorder, the picture will shake abnormally except when in the
recorder’s play mode. This phenomenon occurs due to a signal circulating around inside a certain component, and is not a
malfunction.
B ASIC OPERATION
1.To turn the power on:
Push the POWER switch.
The power indicator glows green. To turn off power, push the POWER switch
again, and the power indicator goes off.
2.To adjust the audio level: (TM-A9U only)
Turn the VOLUME control to the right to increase the level, or to the left to
decrease the level.
Note:
● The audio function can only be used with the TM-A9U.
It is not available with the TM-A9UCV.
