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 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.  
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.  
SERVICE  
15 Unplug this TV set from the wall outlet and refer servicing to  
qualied 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  
require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore  
the TV set to normal operation.  
8 TV sets are provided with ventilation openings in the cabinet  
to allow heat generated during operation to be released.  
Therefore:  
E. If the TV set has been dropped or damaged in any way.  
F. When the TV set exhibits a distinct change in perfor-  
mance — 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 personnel.  
— 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  
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.  
— 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.  
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.  
— Do not try to roll a cart with small casters across thresh-  
olds or deep pile carpets.  
Wall or shelf mounting should follow the manufacturer’s  
instructions, and should use a mounting kit approved by  
the manufacturer.  
19 When a TV set reaches the end of its useful life, improper  
disposal could result in a picture tube implosion. Ask a  
qualied service technician to dispose of the TV set.  
USE  
20 Note to CATV system installer.  
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.  
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.  
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.

The Connections Checklist — Read Me First! section of this guide is a list of ideas to keep in mind when you  
set out to perform your connections. It is designed to help us not-so-technically-advanced individuals. If you  
read this section, and can’t identify the plugs, connectors, and components you have, do not be afraid to  
seek help.  
RF Connectors  
1) Refer to the connection instructions in the user’s  
guide for each component you plan to connect.  
They will provide more detailed information about  
their products, and they will tell you what plugs and  
cables are required.  
2) Most A/V input jacks and plugs are color coded:  
• Yellow plugs are Video connections  
S-Video Plug  
• Red plugs are for Right Audio connections  
• White plugs are Left Audio (Mono) connections  
3) Perform one hookup at a time.  
If you have many accessories to connect, make sure  
each connection is correct by checking to see that it  
works properly before attempting the next connection.  
(For example, always start with the RF or Cable  
connections, make sure it works, then move on to  
video or VCR connections.)  
A/V Input Plug  
4) Unplug the power cord between each connection.  
5) Each jack on the back of the TV is labeled. If you  
read these instructions and still do not fully under-  
stand the connections process, seek assistance.  
AV Compu Link Cable  
6) The AV Compu Link Cable is supplied with the  
JVC device which you want to connect. If you do  
not have one, but you do have a JVC Compu Link  
capable VCR or HiFi, contact your local JVC dealer.

C O N N E C T I O N S 9  
CONNECTING TO JVC AV COMPU LINK  
CAPABLE COMPONENTS  
AV Compu Link makes playing video tapes totally automatic. Simply insert a pre-recorded tape* into  
the JVC brand VCR, and the VCR automatically turns on and starts playing. At the same time, the  
VCR sends an AV Compu Link signal to the television telling it to turn on and switch to the correct  
video input.  
NOTE: The AV Compu Link cable should be included with the AV Compu Link capable accessory  
you intend to connect. If it is not, contact an authorized JVC Service Center for Part # EWP 805-012.  
NOTES:  
A) The AV Compu Link cable has a male 3.5 mm (mono) mini plug on each end.  
B) If your JVC brand VCR has A Code/B Code Remote Control Switching (see your VCR instructions),  
using VCR A Code will switch the TV to Video Input 1. If you use Input 1 for Video out from the  
cable box, use Input 2 here. Using B Code will switch the TV to Video Input 2.  
C) To connect a JVC HiFi receiver or amplifier for a completely automated home theater, see the HiFi  
receiver's instructions for detailed hookup diagrams.  
* In order for the VCR to start playback automatically, the recording tabs must be removed from the  
VHS tape. If the tab is in place, automatic switching starts when you push the VCR PLAY button.  
** AV COMPULINK EX is compatible with the following 1998 receivers: RX-664V, RX-665V, RX-774V,  
RX-884V, RX-1024V, and later receiver models.

Some Sound Advice  
You can tell if a program is broadcast in stereo by the position of the ON AIR arrow in the MTS  
menu. Unfortunately, it is common for some cable companies to squash the transmission of  
stereo programs to mono because they only have mono equipment. If your TV is connected to a  
cable system, the sound is at the mercy of that cable company — if they broadcast in mono, you  
receive mono sound regardless of the original stereo programming.  
Fortunately, most programs that are broadcast in stereo are aired on the major television  
networks. If you connect your TV to an antenna instead of cable, and set the Tuner Mode in the  
Auto Tuner Setup to “Air” instead of “Cable,” you will be able to pick up stereo broadcasts in  
stereo.
