Warnings  
We have an important note for customers who subscribe to basic cable services (do not have  
a separate cable box) and plan to use their JVC TV remote control to select channels.  
Once you run the Auto Tuner Setup (which detects and programs all the channels your TV is  
receiving through the RF input), every channel number available from your cable company  
will appear in your television’s Channel Summary and they will all be marked as available for  
scanning. Even though every channel is detected and appears as available, you will only be  
able to view those that you specically subscribe to from your cable company. This will likely  
mean there are blank channels between those channels you wish to scan or “surf”.  
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause but it is important to note that this is  
not a malfunction of your television. If you want to sequentially scan those channels you  
subscribe to without blank ones in between, you can contact your cable company for their  
cable box and remote.  
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.

Warnings  
Thank you for purchasing a JVC HDTV-ready projection television which uses the high-quality  
HD-ILA projection system. This is one of the highest quality and most technologically advanced  
televisions available today. It is recommended that you read this instruction manual before using  
your television in order to learn about it’s many features. Cautions related to the safe use of the  
device and important information which will help you to be able to use this device for a long time  
is in the Appendix. Once again, thank you for purchasing this television and please enjoy using  
it.  
In order to use the television for a long time  
This television uses a lamp to project the picture onto the screen. Before using this television,  
please read the safety cautions and information about this television which are summarized  
below.  
1. When the power is turned on, the warming up commences  
This television uses a lamp to project the picture onto the screen. Once the lamp has warmed  
up, you can enjoy the pictures at their full brightness. What happens when the power is turned  
on is explained below. Immediately after the power is turned on, since the lamp has not had  
time to warm up, the picture is displayed only dimly on the screen. As the lamp warms up, the  
picture becomes brighter. It takes approximately one minute for the lamp to warm up to it’s  
normal operating temperature. There are 2 LED indicators on the front panel of the television  
that can be used as a guide. When the POWER button is pressed, the LAMP LED indicator  
blinks in orange for approximately 1 minute at approximately every 2 seconds, and then goes  
out.  
Note: It is impossible to turn the power off during this period. After 1 or more minutes have  
passed, you can turn off the power.  
2. Cooling the inside of the television and the lamp  
Cooling is also performed while the television is being shut down.  
When the POWER button is pressed to turn off the power, the following operations are  
performed. When the television is turned off, the picture on the screen disappears. Once the  
screen is dark, cooling is performed for approximately 90 seconds. When the cooling is being  
performed, the LAMP LED indicator on the front panel blinks in orange at approximately every  
3 seconds. The television can not be operated while the cooling is being performed.  
After the cooling has been performed for 90 seconds, the power is turned off. Do not remove  
the electrical plug until after the cooling process has completed. If the electrical plug is  
removed before the cooling process has completed, the internal circuits and lamp may overheat  
leading to the life of the lamp being shortened and the possibility of malfunctions.  
Do not block the ventilation holes.  
Do not block the ventilation holes while the power is turned on. Do not block the air intake holes  
behind the speaker grills.  
3. The lamp is a consumable item  
Replace the lamp when it has blown or when the picture becomes dark. The lamp is a user  
replaceable item. The lamp must be recycled. For a detailed explanation on how to recycle the  
lamp, refer to the Appendix and the instructions that are included with the replacement lamp kit.  
The life of the lamp changes depending on the atmospheric temperature and altitude in which  
the TV is being used.

Warnings  
4. The television requires a lot of electrical power  
It is recommended that the television is connected directly to the wall socket, and not to another  
device. When connecting the television to a wall socket that is being used by another device, or  
when using an extension cord, be careful not to exceed the electrical capacity of the socket.  
Do not turn the power on and off repeatedly in a short amount of time.  
It subjects the television and the lamp to stress and may lead to malfunctions and the life of the  
lamp being shortened.  
5. The screen is made of plastic  
Handle the screen very carefully as it can scratch easily. Do not rub, hit or press on it with any  
hard objects. When the screen is dirty, gently wipe it with a soft cloth. Refer to the Appendix for  
details on how to clean the screen.  
6. Caution! Warm air from the air ducts  
This unit has an air duct for cooling. The duct will blow warm air while the television is operating.  
When placing the television, make sure not to locate it too close to wallpaper. The warm air  
could cause the color of the wallpaper to change. Also, take care to keep children and pets  
away from the warm air ducts. Long exposure to the warm air from the ducts could cause a  
minor burn.  
7. Caution! Moving this television  
When lifting this television, Do not hold by the screen frame. Holding the screen frame could  
cause it to detach, causing the television to fall.  
8. Do not replace the lamp immediately after use  
The lamp becomes extremely hot during use. If the lamp is touched immediately after use  
before it has a chance to cool down, there is a danger of burns. Be careful when handling the  
lamp.  
9. Do not touch the lamp glass  
If the lamp is used when there is dirt from ngers on the lamp glass, there is a possibility of the  
lamp breaking. Be careful not to touch the lamp glass.  
10. ILA element characteristics  
Do not project still pictures or pictures that have still segments for a long period of time. The still  
parts of the picture may remain on the screen. This is a characteristic of ILA elements and not a  
malfunction. The picture will disappear over time.  
11. Condensation  
When a heater is turned on or the television is moved from a cold place to a hot place, droplets  
of water may form on the lamp and screen. This is called condensation. If the television is used  
while this condensation is still present, the picture may seem distorted, and the inside of the  
screen may become dirty. In this case, wait until the condensation has gone before using the  
television.  
12. Do not open the rear cabinet of this television  
This television has a DIGITAL-IN terminal. Opening up the rear cabinet will violate the copyright  
of the program or software shown on the television. Please do not open the rear cabinet.  
13. Usable Time  
Do not keep the TV on for more than 24 hours consecutively. There is a possibility of the life of  
the lamp being shortened.

Connecting to an HDMI Compatible Device  
By connecting an HDMI compatible device, high definition pictures can be displayed on your  
TV in their digital form. Some HDMI devices can include DVD players, D-VHS or any HDMI  
compatible devices.  
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first industry supported, uncompressed, all  
digital audio/video interface. HDMI provides an interface between any audio/video source,  
such as a set-top box, DVD player, A/V receiver or an audio and/or video monitor, such as a  
digital television (DTV).

Notes:  
• When you do the above connection, set DIGITAL-IN1 AUDIO in the Initial Setup menu to  
DIGITAL. See "DIGITAL-IN1 AUDIO", page 52.  
• Some decoders may not respond depending on the equipment that you have connected  
when it is connected to the HDMI.  
• If the HDMI output device signal is changed (for example, 480i/60Hz is changed to  
480p/60Hz), the screen may turn green and there may be some distortion for a short time  
until the signal becomes stable.  
• 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 "HDMI 1" jacks.  
Therefore, you can not hear any analog sound from the other device connected to the  
"HDMI 1" jacks, while you are viewing the images from the HDMI device.

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 38 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.

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.

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.

Aspect  
This feature will help you adjust the picture you are watching to give you the best possible  
picture quality.  
Aspect Ratios  
PANORAMA - With this ratio a normal  
4:3 aspect picture is stretched to fit the  
dimensions of the 16:9 aspect screen.  
REGULAR - The regular ratio is used  
when you want to watch a 4:3 broadcast  
or recorded program without modifying the  
original picture to fit the dimensions of your  
16:9 screen. The 4:3 picture will fill the  
screen from top to bottom, while black bars  
will appear to fill up the remaining space  
along the picture’s sides. The 4:3 picture  
will be centered within the boundaries of the  
16:9 screen.  
CINEMA - This ratio “zooms in” on the  
center part of a 4:3 aspect picture, blowing  
it up to fill the 16:9 screen.  
SLIM - This aspect mode shrinks the  
screen of 16:9 to 4:3. There are some  
programming that is already stretched by  
mistake at broadcasting companies, so  
this mode corrects it. Black side bars will  
appear.  
FULL - This is the ratio to use when  
watching 16:9 High-Definition broadcasts.  
PANORAMA ZOOM - This ratio stretches  
the High-Definition 16:9 aspect image to  
eliminate the black side bars.

Lamp Replacement  
Changing the Lamp  
WARNING!  
It is very important that you NEVER TOUCH THE GLASS SURFACE OF THE NEW  
LAMP. Touching the glass surface will deposit oils from your hand onto the lamp  
surface. When the lamp heats up to its operating temperature, the oil will cause a  
difference in temperature on the lamp surface that will likely cause the lamp to break.  
Replace the lamp with part number TS-CL110U only! The television is designed  
to work specifically with this lamp. Using a different lamp, or a third-party  
manufacturer’s lamp could cause a malfunction and or damage to the television.  
This television uses a 110-Watt high-pressure mercury lamp to project images onto the  
television screen. When the lamp nears the end of its operating life, you may notice the picture  
becoming dark. When the picture begins to darken, or the lamp burns out, it is time to replace  
the lamp. The following instructions will tell you how to safely replace the lamp.  
WARNING!  
Under operating conditions, THE LAMP WILL GET EXTREMELY HOT AND WILL  
CAUSE SEVERE BURNS IF TOUCHED.  
Before attempting to replace the lamp, make sure the television has completely run  
through its cooling cycle. Turn the power off and wait until the LAMP LED blinks very  
slowly and turns off completely. Unplug the TV. If you feel any warmth as you place  
your hand near the lamp, DO NOT TOUCH IT. Wait until the lamp has completely  
cooled before attempting to replace it. After turning the power off, wait at least 1 hour  
or more.  
NEVER attempt to replace the lamp with the television plugged into a wall outlet.  
Attempting to replace the lamp with the TV plugged in could lead to a severe electrical  
shock.  
Do not keep the TV on for more than 24 hours consecutively. There is the possibility  
of the life of the lamp being shortened.  
The life of the lamp changes depending on the atmospheric temperature and altitude  
in which the TV is being used.  
Please read these instructions fully before attempting to replace the lamp. If you feel  
unsure about replacing the lamp yourself, call a service technician.

Before replacing the lamp, you will need to purchase a replacement kit, part number  
TS-CL110U. To purchase this kit, consult your dealer or call 1-800-252-5722 or go to  
Because the lamp contains mercury, it cannot be disposed of with normal trash.

Lamp Replacement  
How to Replace the Lamp  
Please read these instructions fully before attempting to replace the lamp. If you feel  
unsure about replacing the lamp yourself, call a service technician. Please observe all  
safety warnings.  
1) Turn off the television.  
Press the POWER button on the remote control or TV front panel. Wait until the picture has  
closed and the LAMP LED on the front panel has stopped blinking indicating the lamp cool  
down is complete.  
Warning: The cool-down process cools the lamp from its operating temperature. This  
does not mean that the lamp will now be cool enough to handle safely. We strongly  
recommend you wait at least one hour before proceeding.  
2) Unplug the television.  
Disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet. Make sure that the LAMP LED light has stopped  
blinking before you unplug the set. Never attempt to replace the lamp with the television  
plugged in.  
3) Remove the lamp cover.  
The lamp is located behind the lamp cover below the left side of the  
television. To access the lamp you will need to remove the lamp cover.  
First, remove the screw located on the lamp cover using a Philips head  
type screwdriver (cross-head type). Once the screw has been removed,  
gently pull the knob towards you and the panel will come away from the  
television. Set it aside.  
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to remove the assembly until the lamp has fully cooled. If you  
feel any heat near the lamp, STOP and wait until the lamp has FULLY COOLED.  
NEVER attempt to remove the lamp with the television plugged into an outlet.  
DO NOT DROP the used lamp. The inside of the lamp is under pressure. Dropping or other  
hard shock could cause the lamp to shatter.  
ALWAYS recycle the used lamp. Because the lamp contains mercury, it cannot be  
thrown away with regular trash. Follow the recycling instructions included with the Lamp  
Replacement Kit.  
4) Remove the lamp unit.  
Using a Philips head type screwdriver (cross-head type), loosen the two screws fastening the  
lamp unit. When the screws have been loosened, remove the lamp by raising the handle and  
gently sliding the unit straight towards you. Place it carefully in the recycling packaging.

Lamp Replacement  
5) Install the new lamp unit.  
Holding the handle attached to the new lamp unit, slide and push the new lamp straight into the  
television and back into the lamp housing area. Do not forget to re-tighten the two screws.  
Note: If the lamp does not sit securely in the TV (flat in the lamp housing area), it won’t turn on.  
Make sure the lamp sits securely and flat in the housing area.  
WARNING!  
Remember it is very important that YOU DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP SURFACE. Please  
read the warnings on page 75 again.  
Also, replace the lamp with part number TS-CL110U only! The television is designed  
to work specifically with this lamp. Lamps other than TS-CL110U may cause  
malfunctions and/or other damage to the television.  
NOTICE (for USA)  
This product has a High Intensity Discharge (HID)  
lamp that contains mercury. Disposal of these  
materials may be regulated in your community due  
to environmental considerations. For disposal or  
recycling information, please contact your local  
authorities or for USA, the Electronic Industries  
T
To purchase a replacement lamp kit, please call 1-800-252-5722.  
6) Re-install the lamp cover.  
Insert the lamp cover in the right concave and close the lamp cover. Because the lamp cover  
has a role to help prevent the danger of an electrical shock, tighten the screw using your  
fingers.  
Note:  
• After installing the new lamp unit, do not forget to reset the lamp timer. See page 61.

Troubleshooting  
PROBLEMS  
CHECK  
Static electricity  
• It is normal to feel static electricity if you brush or touch the screen.  
You hear occasional  
crackling sounds  
• It is normal for the TV to make crackling sounds when first turned on or off. Unless  
the sound or picture become abnormal, this is fine.  
The following are not malfunctions.  
• The television may make a creaking sound if the temperature of the room or the temperature  
inside the television changes. If there is no problem with the screen or sound, then there is no  
need to worry.  
• The lamp may make a noise when it blows, but this is not dangerous.  
• The lamp may make a noise when the power is turned on and a picture is displayed on  
the screen. This noise is caused when the mercury inside the lamp is heated, and is not a  
malfunction.  
• The still parts of a picture may remain on the screen. This is a characteristic of HD-ILA  
elements and not a malfunction. The picture will disappear over time.  
• The operation of this television is not guaranteed below 0ºC. If the power is turned on while  
the temperature is below 0ºC, the picture may be disturbed. Use the television when the  
temperature is 0ºC or higher.  
• Although the HD-ILA element is manufactured with high-precision technology, please  
understand that some pixels may be lost or permanently displayed.  
• There is a cooling fan built-in to the television. Please understand that this fan will make some  
noise when the television is on and while cooling.  
• Although the picture may be temporarily disturbed and noise may be seen on the screen if the  
power is turned on immediately after it has been turned off. This is not a malfunction.
