Warnings  
Avoiding Ghost Images  
Displaying xed images for extended periods of time can leave a subtle but temporary ghost  
image on your screen. To avoid this, mix your viewing pattern.  
Examples include, but are not limited to the following:  
For example...  
• Stock-market report bars  
• Shopping channel logos and pricing  
displays  
TV on  
TV off  
• Video game patterns or scoreboards  
• Bright station logos  
• Internet web sites or other computer-style  
images.  
• DVD discs, video tapes, laser discs  
• Broadcast, cable, satellite channels or  
digital television tuners/converters.

Caring for the Cabinet  
Normally, light dusting with a soft, non-scratching duster will keep your TV clean.  
If you wish to wipe down the television, first unplug it. Then wipe gently with a soft cloth, slightly  
moistened with water. You can add a few drops of mild liquid detergent to the water to help  
remove spots of oily dirt.  
• DO NOT allow liquid to enter the TV through the ventilation slots.  
• DO NOT use strong or abrasive cleaners on the TV.  
• DO NOT spray liquids or cleaners directly on the TV’s surface.  
• DO NOT rub or scrub the TV harshly. Wipe the set gently with a soft cloth.  
Caring for the Screen  
The screen is treated with an electrostatic-proof coating. When it gets dirty, wipe it gently with a  
soft cloth. If the screen is very dirty, wipe it down with a cloth dipped in a diluted kitchen cleaner  
and thoroughly wrung-out. Then wipe immediately after with a clean, dry cloth.  
Do not apply alcohol, organic solvents (like acetone), acidic or alkaline cleansers to the screen.  
These will remove the coating layer and cause discolorations.  
Do not push or hit the screen. This could cause scratches on the screen surface and image  
distortions.

Quick Setup  
Getting Started  
These quick setup pages will provide you, in three easy steps, with the basic information you  
need to begin using your new television right away. If you have questions, or for more detailed  
information on any of these steps, please consult other sections of this manual.  
Step 1 – The Remote Control  
Before you can operate your remote control, you  
first need to install the batteries (included).  
Slide the cover on the back of the remote down  
towards the bottom of the remote control. Insert  
two batteries (included) carefully noting the “+”  
and “–” markings, placing the “–” end in the unit  
first. Slide the cover back into place.  
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/satellite receiver may have to be reset. See pages 28 - 31.  
Key Feature Buttons

Notes:  
• Green, blue and red are the most common colors for DVD cables. Some models may vary  
colors. Please consult the user’s manual for your DVD player for more information.

V-Chip  
Your TV is equipped with V-Chip technology which enables you to block channels or content  
that you feel to be inappropriate for children, based on US and Canada rating guidelines.  
V-Chip has no effect on video signals from DVD discs or Camcorder connection.  
Note: Some programs, and movies are broadcast without a ratings signal. Even if you set  
up V-CHIP ratings limits, these programs will not be blocked. See page 39 for information on  
how to block unrated programs.  
Note (for Canadian viewers): The V-Chip function is based on specifications designed for  
the United States and therefore may not work properly in Canada.  
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. You may use  
any or all of the settings (US V-Chip, Canada V-Chip, Movie ratings). Descriptions for setting  
each of the three V-Chip formats appear in the next six pages along with descriptions of the  
rating categories.

Movies Ratings  
NR – Not Rated  
This is a film which has no rating. In many cases these films were imported from countries  
which do not use the MPAA ratings system. Other NR films may be from amateur producers  
who didn’t intend to have their film widely released.  
NR (Not Rated) Programming may contain all types of programming including children’s  
programming, foreign programs, or adult material.  
G – General Audience  
In the opinion of the review board, these films contain nothing in the way of sexual content,  
violence, or language that would be unsuitable for audiences of any age.  
PG – Parental Guidance  
Parental Guidance means the movie may contain some contents such as mild violence,  
some brief nudity, and strong language. The contents are not deemed intense.  
PG-13 – Parents Strongly Cautioned  
Parents with children under 13 are cautioned that the content of movies with this rating may  
include more explicit sexual, language, and violence content than movies rated PG.  
R – Restricted  
These films contain material that is explicit in nature and is not recommended for  
unsupervised children under the age of 17.  
NC-17 – No One Under 17  
These movies contain content which most parents would feel is too adult for their children  
to view. Content can consist of strong language, nudity, violence, and suggestive or explicit  
subject matter.  
X – No One under 18  
Inappropriate material for anyone under 18.

Dynamic Gamma  
JVC's Dynamic Gamma Circuitry (DGC) makes it easier to see dark areas when a picture  
has many dark areas, and makes it easier to see the bright areas when a picture has many  
bright areas. DGC is turned on, DGC analyzes and adjusts the total level of picture brightness  
balance, especially in dark areas where the level of grayscale is often lost, turning completely  
to black DGC automatically enhances the detail in these dark areas providing a more dynamic  
image with ner detail, so the optimum picture settings are automatically set for each picture.  
Normally use with DGC on.

• Check for a blown fuse or circuit breaker or a power outage.  
• The antenna could be disconnected.  
There is no picture  
or sound  
• The input mode could be set improperly. See page 66.  
• The tuner (Auto Tuner Setup) could be set improperly. See page 35.  
• The TV station may be having difficulties. Check to see if other stations are working.

HDMI 2 connection on the back of your TV. (See page 20).  
2) When you have analog sound from a DVI device connected to the  
AUDIO IN "FOR HDMI 1" connection. (See page 19).  
• When you have an HDMI device connected to the HDMI 1 connection on the back of your  
TV, your TV detects it, and blocks the analog audio signal coming into the "FOR HDMI 1”  
jacks. Therefore, you can not hear any analog sound from the other device conected to the  
"FOR HDMI 1" jacks, while you are viewing the images from the HDMI device.  
(See page 20).
