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 information 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.  
13 For added protection of the TV set during a lightning storm or  
when the TV set is to be left unattended for an extended peri-  
od 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.  
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.  
EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING  
AS PER NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE  
SERVICE  
15 Unplug this TV set from the wall outlet and refer servicing to  
qualified service personnel 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 adjust-  
ment of other controls may result in damage and will often

ance — this indicates a need for service.  
— 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.  
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 person-  
nel.  
— Never cover the openings with a cloth or other material.  
— Never place the TV set near or over a radiator or heat registe.r  
9 To avoid personal injury:  
17 When replacement parts are required, have the service tech-  
nician 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 pre-  
vent fire, shock, or other hazards.  
— Donot placea TVset on a sloping shelf unless properly secured.  
— Use only a cart or stand recommended by the TV set  
manufacturer.

olds or deep pile carpets.  
18 Upon completion of any service or repairs to this TV set,  
please ask the service technician to perform the safety check  
described in the manufacturer’s service literature.  
Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer’s  
instructions, and should use a mounting kit approved by  
the manufacturer.

posal could result in a picture tube implosion. Ask a qualified  
service technician to dispose of the TV set.  
USE

through cabinet openings. Someinternal parts carry hazardous  
voltages and contact can result in a fire or electrical shock.  
20 Note to CATV system installer.  
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system  
installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that pro-  
vides 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.  
11 Unplug the TV set from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do  
not use liquid or an aerosol cleaner.

CONNECTIONS CHECKLIST - READ ME FIRST  
The Connections Checklist section of this guide is a list of ideas to keep in mind while you setup your  
new TV. It is designed to help us not-so-technically-minded individuals make our connections properly.  
If you read this section and still can’t identify the plugs, connectors and components you have, please  
ask someone for help in making your connections.  
1) Always refer to the connection instructions in the  
user’s guide for your components first. The  
manufacturer will provide the most detailed  
information about their products.  
2) Know your jacks and plugs - most are color coded:  
A/V Input Plug  
• Yellow plugs are Video connections  
• Red plugs are Right Audio connections  
• White (or black) plugs are Left Audio (or Mono)  
connections. If your VCR is mono-sound, it will have  
only a white or black plug, no second red one.  
3) Perform one connection at a time. If you have  
RF Connectors  
several accessories to connect, make sure each  
connection is correct by checking to see that it works  
properly before trying the next connection.  
4) Unplug the power cord during each connection.  
5) Follow the In and Out Concept. Remember In and  
S-Video Plug  
Out - the Output jack from one device will go to the  
Input jack of the other. Read the jack panels, they are  
all labeled.  
6) The AV Compu Link Cable lets you connect to  
certain JVC devices. If you have a JVC Compu Link  
VCR or other piece of equipment, but don’t have an  
AV Compu Link cable, contact your local JVC dealer.

To Connect: Plug one end of the AV Compu Link cable into the AV Compu Link input on your VCR or  
other Compu Link device. Plug the other end of the AV Compu Link cable into the AV Compu Link input  
at the rear of the television.  
NOTES:  
* In order for the VCR playback to begin automatically, the recording tabs must be removed from the VHS tape. If the tab is  
in place, automatic switching will occur when you push the VCRs PLAY button.  
• The AV Compu Link cable has a male 3.5 mm (mono) plug on each end.  
• If your JVC-brand VCR has “A Code/B Code Remote Control Switching” (see your VCR’s instruction book), using VCR A  
Code will switch the TV to Video Input 1. If you use Input 1 for video input from your cable box, use VCR B Code to select  
the TV Video Input 2.  
• To connect a JVC HiFi receiver or amplifier for a completely automated home theater, see the HiFi’s connection  
instructions for detailed connection information.  
• AV COMPU LINK EX is compatible with the following receivers: RX-664V, RX-665V, RX-668VBK, RX-774V, RX-788VBK,

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

Your TV is equipped with V-Chip technology which  
enables TV Parental Guideline and Movie (MPAA)  
Guideline controls. V-Chip technology allows you to

programs based on content according to the

and should be suitable for all ages, including  
children ages 2 - 6.  
TV Y7 is for Older Children.  
When a viewer attempts to watch a blocked channel,  
this message appears:  
Most parents would find such programs  
suitable for children 7 and above. They 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.  
To watch a blocked channel, enter the lock code  
(page 21) using the 10 key pad.  
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
