Introduction  
We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.  
Before operating this unit, read this manual carefully and thoroughly to  
obtain the best possible performance from your unit, and retain this manual  
for future reference.  
Power sources  
• When unplugging from the wall outlet, always pull the  
plug, not the AC power cord.  
About This Manual  
This manual is organized as follows:  
The manual mainly explains operations using the  
buttons and controls on the unit. You can also use the  
buttons on the remote control if they have the same or  
similar names (or marks) as those on the unit.  
If operation using the remote control is different from  
that using the unit, it is then explained.  
• Basic and common information that is the same for many  
functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in  
each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the  
information about turning on/off the unit, setting the  
volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are  
explained in the section “Common Operations” on pages 9  
and 10.  
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet  
hands.  
Moisture condensation  
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the  
following cases:  
• After starting heating in the room  
• In a damp room  
• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm place  
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case,  
leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture  
evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in  
again.  
• The following marks are used in this manual:  
Gives you warnings and cautions to prevent  
damage or risk of fire/electric shock.  
Also gives you information which is not good  
for obtaining the best possible performance  
from the unit.  
Others  
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit,  
unplug the unit and consult your dealer before operating  
any further.  
• If you are not going to operate the unit for an extended  
period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall  
outlet.  
Gives you information and hints you had better  
know.  
DO NOT disassemble the unit since there are no  
user serviceable parts inside.  
Precautions  
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and  
consult your dealer.  
Installation  
• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor  
too cold—between 5˚C (41˚F) and 35˚C (95˚F).  
• Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to  
prevent internal heat built-up in the unit.  
• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.  
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference  
with TV.  
DO NOT install the unit in a location near heat  
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,  
excessive dust or vibration.
