Thank you for buying this JVC colour television.  
To make sure you understand how to use your new TV, please read this manual thoroughly before you  
begin.  
WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS  
APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.  
WARNING  
Always use the power cords which are supplied with the TV.  
Some power cords are supplied with this TV. Use the power cord which best suits the area in which  
you live, and insert it into a correctly earthed outlet.  
Failure to use the supplied power cord or to insert it into a correctly earthed outlet may result in electric  
shocks.  
CAUTION:  
• Operate only from the power source specified (AC 110 – 240 V, 50 Hz) on the unit.  
• Avoid damaging the AC plug and power cord.  
• When you are not using this unit for a long period of time, it is recommended that you disconnect

Burn-in  
A characteristic of Plasma Display Panels (PDPs) is that displaying the same image for a long time  
causes a part of the image to stay on the screen (this is called phosphor burn-in).  
Avoid burn-in as follows.  
Use the PICTURE SHIFT function. To prevent burn-in, the picture displayed on the  
screen is shifted up, down and to the left and right at regular intervals. See page 45  
for details.  
• Even if the PICTURE SHIFT function is turned off, the picture may shift to the left or right when  
the channel or input is changed.  
The PICTURE MODE function is initially set to BRIGHT. Unless the TV is being  
watched in an extremely bright room, we recommend you change the PICTURE  
MODE setting to either STANDARD or SOFT. Doing so will reduce the chance of  
burn-in and extend the life of the PDP. See “PICTURE MODE” on page 29.  
Do not display static images or characters for long periods of time.  
While an image is displayed  
With power OFF  
19:03  
19:03  
Burn-in example  
• Reduce CONTRAST and BRIGHT on the PICTURE menu (page 29) when viewing.  
Do not view for long periods of time in the REGULAR mode (page 18).  
Screen size is normally chosen to ensure that the picture is displayed on the entire screen. After  
viewing in the REGULAR mode in which black bands may occur at the left and right of the screen,  
it is recommended to change to the PANORAMIC mode to display the picture on the entire screen.  
While an image is displayed  
With power OFF  
Burn-in example  
Do not view for long periods of time using the MULTI-PICTURE function (page 20).  
If Burn-in has occurred  
If burn-in occurs, try the REFRESH function (page 37). If burn-in is minimal it may gradually become  
less noticeable.  
Note: Once burn-in occurs it will never disappear completely.

Pixel defects  
PDPs use collections of fine dots (“pixels”) to display images. While there is no problem with more  
than 99.99% of these pixels, please understand that a very small number of pixels may not light, or  
may light all the time.  
Do not install the TV near electronic equipment that is susceptible to  
electromagnetic waves  
It may cause interference in images, sound, etc. In particular, keep video equipment away from this  
product.  
Effect on infrared devices  
There may be interference while using infrared devices such as infrared cordless headphones.  
Failure to take the following precautions may result in damage to the TV or  
remote control.  
DO NOT block the TV’s ventilation openings or holes.  
(If the ventilation openings or holes are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be  
able to get out.)  
DO NOT place anything on top of the TV.  
(such as cosmetics or medicines, flower vases, potted plants, cups, etc.)  
DO NOT allow objects or liquid into the cabinet openings.  
(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this equipment, fire or electric shock may be caused.)  
DO NOT place any naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, on the TV.  
The surface of the TV screen is easily damaged. Be very careful with it when handling the TV.  
Should the TV screen become soiled, wipe it with a soft dry cloth. Never rub it hard.  
Never use any cleaner or detergent on it.  
In the event of a fault, unplug the unit and call a service technician. Do not attempt to repair it  
yourself or remove the rear cover.

Setting up your TV  
Direct Rec  
“What You See Is What You Record”  
You can easily record to VCR the images  
that you are watching on the TV.  
For details, read the manual for your VCR.  
Use your VCR controls. “VCR IS  
RECORDING” is displayed.  
In the following situations, the VCR  
will stop recording if the TV is turned  
off, if the TV channel or input is  
changed, or if the menu is displayed  
on the TV:  
• when recording images from an external  
device connected to the TV (for example  
a camcorder)  
• when recording a TV channel after it has  
been unscrambled on a decoder  
• when recording a TV channel by using the  
TV’s output because the VCR’s own  
tuner cannot properly receive that  
channel.  
When the VCR is not ready (for example  
when there is no tape inserted), “NO  
RECORDING” is displayed.  
You cannot carry out Direct Rec using your  
TV’s control.  
Generally, the VCR cannot record a TV  
channel that it cannot receive properly on its  
own tuner, even if you can view that TV  
channel on the TV. However, some VCRs  
can record a TV channel by using the TV’s  
output if that channel can be viewed on the  
TV. For details, see your VCR instruction  
manual.

the other colours on the screen.

automatically.  
BRIGHT:  
Heightens contrast and sharpness.

DigiPure function:  
This function helps to create a natural-  
looking picture by eliminating unnecessary  
edges from high-contrast and crisp images.  
For images with low-contrast, edges are  
added to produce a sharper, more detailed  
picture.  
You can choose from the three DigiPure  
function settings of AUTO, MIN and MAX.  
• If you set the DigiPure effect too high on  
a low-quality picture that contains a lot of  
noise, this may actually make the noise  
worse. We recommend you use the  
AUTO setting if you can.  
OK  
D1015-EN  
DIGITAL VNR  
The DIGITAL VNR function cuts down the  
amount of ‘noise’ (‘snow’ or interference) in  
the original picture.  
You can choose from the three DIGITAL  
VNR function settings of AUTO, MIN and  
MAX.  
AUTO(LOW)/AUTO(HIGH):  
The TV will automatically adjust the level of  
the DIGITAL VNR effect to match the  
amount of noise in the picture, giving you the  
best possible picture.  
• If you set the DIGITAL VNR effect too  
high it can make the picture less sharp. It is  
recommended you use the AUTO(LOW)  
setting if you can. If you set the DIGITAL  
VNR function to AUTO(LOW) but still  
notice some noise, change the setting from  
AUTO(LOW) to AUTO(HIGH).  
Picture motion compensation  
function:  
This function displays fast-moving pictures  
(for example, the players or ball in a football  
game) more smoothly and naturally on the  
screen.  
• The effect level of the picture motion  
compensation function cannot be  
changed. The effect level is the same no  
matter which of the AUTO, MIN or MAX  
settings is used.  
MIN:  
The level of the DIGITAL VNR effect is set  
to the minimum. If you set the DIGITAL  
VNR function to AUTO(LOW) but feel that  
the sharpness of the original picture has not  
been reproduced fully, change the setting  
from AUTO(LOW) to MIN.  
AUTO:  
The TV will automatically adjust the level of  
the DigiPure effect to match the amount of  
noise in the picture, giving the best possible  
picture.  
• The MIN setting is not suitable for low-  
quality pictures which contain a lot of  
noise.

CH/CC numbers  
• When two CH/CC numbers correspond to one Channel number, choose either one according to  
the current COUNTRY setting. When the COUNTRY setting is other than FRANCE, choose a  
two-digit CH/CC number. When the COUNTRY setting is FRANCE, choose a three-digit CH/  
CC number.  
• Find the CH/CC number (CC110 to CC161) corresponding to the TV channel (SECAM-L  
system) from a French cable TV station, based on the broadcast frequency of the TV channel.  
When you do not know the broadcast frequency, please contact the cable TV station.  
• The CH/CC numbers of CH102-CH169 and CC110-CC161 correspond to the TV channels  
being broadcast by a SECAM-L system. The other CH/CC numbers correspond to the TV  
channels being broadcast by a method other than a SECAM-L system.

Troubleshooting  
If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this troubleshooting guide carefully  
before you ask to have the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example,  
if the mains plug is disconnected from the mains outlet, or the TV aerial has problems, you may  
think there is a problem with the TV itself.  
Important:  
• This troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose causes are not easy to decide. If you  
have a question when you are operating a function, read the page(s) for that function carefully,  
not this troubleshooting guide.  
• If you follow the advice in this troubleshooting guide without any success, unplug the mains  
plug and ask for your TV to be repaired. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or to  
remove the rear cover of the TV.  
–Have the TV and aerial been connected  
properly?  
–Has the aerial cable been damaged?  
–Is the aerial pointing in the right  
direction?  
If you cannot turn on the TV  
• Is the mains plug connected to the mains  
outlet?  
• Is the power lamp lit? If not, press the A  
button on the TV.  
–Is the aerial itself faulty?  
• Make sure you set the VCR/TV/DVD  
switch to the TV position. You cannot  
turn the TV on when the VCR/TV/DVD  
switch is set to the VCR or DVD position.  
• If the TV or aerial suffers interference  
from other equipment, stripes or noise  
may appear in the picture. Move any  
equipment such as an amplifier, personal  
computer, or a hair drier, that can cause  
interference away from your TV. Or try  
moving the TV. If the aerial suffers  
interference from a radio tower or high-  
voltage wire, please contact your local  
dealer.  
• If the TV suffers interference from signals  
reflecting from mountains or buildings,  
double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Try  
to change the aerial’s direction or replace  
it with one with better directionality.  
• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings  
correct? Follow the description  
If you cannot turn off the TV  
• Make sure you set the VCR/TV/DVD  
switch to the TV position. You cannot  
turn the TV off when the VCR/TV/DVD  
switch is set to the VCR or DVD position.  
No picture or no sound  
• Have you chosen a TV channel with very  
poor reception? If so, the BLUE BACK  
function will be activated: the entire  
screen becomes blue, and the sound is  
muted. If you still want to view the TV  
channel, follow the description “BLUE  
BACK” on page 36 to change the BLUE  
BACK function setting to OFF.  
“COLOUR SYSTEM” on page 32 to try  
to solve the trouble.  
• Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings  
been adjusted properly? Follow the  
description “BRIGHT” and “COLOUR”  
on page 29 to try to adjust them properly.  
• Videotaping teletext is not recommended  
because it may not record correctly.  
• If the SYSTEM setting for a TV channel  
is incorrect, it may prevent the sound  
from being issued. Follow the description  
“EDIT/MANUAL” on page 38 to use the  
MANUAL function to try to change the  
SYSTEM setting.  
Poor picture  
• If noise (snow) totally blocks out the  
picture, there may be a problem with the  
aerial or aerial cable. Check the following  
to try to solve the problem:

Troubleshooting  
• When viewing images from commercially  
available video software products, or  
videos from videotapes which have been  
recorded improperly, the top of the image  
may be distorted. This is due to the  
condition of the video signal. There is  
nothing wrong with the TV.  
Other issues  
• When the SLEEP TIMER function  
operates, the TV is automatically turned  
off. If the TV suddenly turns off, try to  
press the # (standby) button to turn on  
the TV once again. If the TV goes back to  
normal, there is no problem.  
• Since this TV is designed to make full use  
of the resolution of the original video  
source, the motion may appear unnatural  
when the video source is input with 625p  
progressive-scanning component signals.  
If this occurs, change the output setting of  
the connected device to 625i interlace-  
scanning component signal output. See  
the instructions that came with the device  
for more information.  
• When the TV is receiving a wide-screen  
signal (WSS) or a signal from an external  
device affecting the screen size, the  
ZOOM mode automatically changes.  
When you want to resume the previous  
ZOOM mode, press the c button  
again.  
• If you bring magnetised equipment such  
as a speaker near to your TV, the picture  
may be warped or unnatural colours may  
appear at the corners of the screen. In this  
case, keep the equipment away from your  
TV. If speakers cause this to happen, use  
magnetically-shielded speakers instead.  
• It takes a short period of time from the  
time an operation such as changing  
channels is performed until an image is  
displayed. This is not a fault. This is the  
time needed for the image to stabilize  
before it can be displayed.  
Poor sound  
• Have you adjusted BASS or TREBLE  
properly? If not, follow the description  
“BASS” or “TREBLE” on page 33.  
• When TV channel reception is poor, it can  
be hard to hear stereo or bilingual sound.  
In this case, follow the description  
“STEREO / I • II” on page 33 to hear the  
sound more easily by changing it to a  
mono sound.  
• The TV may make a crackling sound due  
to a sudden change in temperature. The  
picture or sound may be normal. If you  
hear crackling sounds frequently while  
you are viewing the TV, there may be  
other causes. As a precaution, ask your  
service technician to inspect it.  
• Touching the screen may cause you to  
feel a slight electric shock due to its static  
electricity. This is unavoidable due to the  
construction of the picture tube. It is not a  
problem with the TV. You can rest  
assured that this static discharge is not  
harmful.  
If the TV does not respond to the  
remote control  
• Have the batteries of the remote control  
worn out? Follow the description “Putting  
the batteries into the remote control” on  
page 8 and replace them with new batteries.  
• Have you attempted to use the remote  
control from the sides or rear of the TV or  
from more than seven metres away from the  
TV? Use the remote control in front of your  
TV or from less than seven metres away.  
• When you are viewing a teletext  
programme, you cannot operate the  
menus. Press the b button to return to  
the ordinary TV programme, and then try  
operating the menus.  
• If the TV suddenly stops responding,  
press the A button on the TV and turn off  
the TV. Press the A button again to turn  
on the TV. If the TV returns to a normal  
state, it is not a failure.
