• As an “ENERGY STAR®” partner,
JVC has determined that this
product or product model meets the
“ENERGY STAR®” guidelines for energy
efficiency.

Important Safeguards
CAUTION:
Please read and retain for your safety.
Electrical energy can perform many useful functions. This TV set has been engineered and
manufactured to assure your personal safety. But improper use can result in potential
electrical shock or fire hazards. In order not to defeat the safeguards incorporated in this
TV set, observe the following basic rules for its installation, use and servicing. Also follow all
warnings and instructions marked on your TV set.

INSTALLATION
1 Your TV set is equipped with a polarized AC line plug (one
blade of the plug is wider than the other). This safety feature
allows the plug to fit into the power outlet only one way.
Should you be unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet,
try reversing the plug. Should it still fail to fit, contact your
electrician.

(POLARIZED-TYPE)

2 Operate the TV set only from a power source as indicated on the TV set or refer to the
operating instructions for this information. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to
your home, consult your TV set dealer or local power company. For battery operation, refer
to the operating instructions.
3 Overloaded AC outlets and extension cords are dangerous, and so are frayed power cords
and broken plugs. They may result in a shock or fire hazard. Call your service technician for
replacement.
4 Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord, and do not place the TV set
where power cord is subject to traffic or abuse. This may result in a shock or fire hazard.
5 Do not use this TV set near water — for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or
laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near swimming pool, etc.
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.

AV-34WP84 English 3

8/5/03, 8:56:50 AM

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.

8 TV sets are provided with ventilation openings in the cabinet to allow heat generated during
operation to be released.
Therefore:
— 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.
— Never cover the openings with a cloth or other material.
— Never place the TV set near or over a radiator or heat register.
9 To avoid personal injury:
— Do not place a TV set on a sloping shelf unless properly secured.
— Use only a cart or stand recommended by the TV set manufacturer.
— Do not try to roll a cart with small casters across thresholds or deep pile carpets.
— Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a
mounting kit approved by the manufacturer.

Use
10 Caution children about dropping or pushing objects into the TV set through cabinet
openings. Some internal parts carry hazardous voltages and contact can result in a fire or
electrical shock.
11 Unplug the TV set from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid or an aerosol
cleaner.
12 Never add accessories to a TV set that has not been designed for this purpose. Such
additions may result in a hazard.

PORTABLE CART WARNING
(Symbol provided by RETAC)

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 period 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.

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 adjustment
of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the TV set to normal operation.
E. If the TV set has been dropped or damaged in any way.
F. When the TV set exhibits a distinct change in performance — this indicates a need for
service.
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
personnel.
17 When replacement parts are required, have the service technician 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 prevent fire, shock, or other hazards.
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.
19 When a TV set reaches the end of its useful life, improper disposal could result in a picture
tube implosion. Ask a qualified service technician to dispose of the TV set.
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 provides 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.

Getting Started

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 22 - 24.

Key Feature Buttons
The four key feature buttons at the center of the remote
can be used for basic operation of the television. The top
and bottom buttons will scan forward and back through the
available channels. To move rapidly through the channels
using JVC’s Hyperscan feature, press and hold CH+ or
CH–. The channels will zip by at a rate of five channels per
second. The right and left buttons will turn the volume up or
down. These buttons are also marked with four arrows and
are used with JVC’s onscreen menu system. To use the
onscreen menus, press the MENU button.

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

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.

Notes:
• This function will not work when the picture from all external input is displayed.

Cable Box Note:
The 2–Tuner Multi Screen function may not operate when used with certain cable boxes.
This is because while some models of cable boxes may receive up to 181 channels, and may
only send the signal from one channel to your television. (Please refer to diagram on page
13). For the 2–Tuner Multi screen function to operate correctly, it must have access to all
available channels. Since the television is receiving the signal from only one channel from the
cable box, it is impossible for the 2–Tuner Multi screen function to display a second, different
channel. Because there are many different models of cable boxes in use today, if you are
having problems operating your 2–Tuner Multi screen function feature with your cable box, we
recommend you contact your local cable company for connection advice.

Index
This allows you to quickly look at up to 12 channels at a time so that you can decide which one
