10) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11) Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12) Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with
the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to
avoid injury from tip-over.
13) Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
14) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has
been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been
spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or
moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15) Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as
vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

available around the TV to allow satisfactory cooling.
FCC Notice:
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Warnings
Screen Burn-in
A characteristic of Plasma Display Panels (PDPs) is that displaying the same image for a long
time causes a part of the image to stay on the screen (this is called phosphor burn-in).
Avoid burn-in as follows.
IMAGE SHIFT
The picture displayed on the screen is shifted up, down and to the left and right at regular
intervals. In order to prevent burn-in, set this function to FAST or STD. (Refer to page 48.)
Even if the IMAGE SHIFT function is turned off, the picture will shift to the left or right when the
channel or input is changed. This is only when the ASPECT function is in REGULAR mode.
VIDEO STATUS
The VIDEO STATUS function is initially set to DYNAMIC. Unless the TV is being watched in an
extremely bright room, it is recommended to change the VIDEO STATUS setting to standard,
theater or game. Doing so will reduce the chance of PDP burn-in and extend the life of the PDP.
(Refer to page 68).
❑ Do not display static images or characters for long periods of time.
TV off
TV on
XYZ
XYZ
For example...
• Reduce PICTURE and BRIGHT on the PICTURE ADJUST menu (page 58) when viewing.
❑ Do not view for long periods of time in the REGULAR mode (page 72).
Screen size is normally chosen to ensure that the picture is displayed on the entire screen.
After viewing in the REGULAR mode in which black bands may occur at the left and right of
the screen, it is recommended to change to the PANORAMA mode to display the picture on the
entire screen.
TV off
TV on
For example...
❑ Do not view for long periods of time using the TWIN function (page 64) or INDEX
function (page 65).
5
Warnings
If Burn-in has occurred
If burn-in occurs, try the BURN-IN IMAGE REDUCER function (page 59). If burn-in is minimal it
may gradually become less noticeable.
Note: Once burn-in occurs it will never disappear completely.
Point defects
PDPs use collections of fine pixels to display images. While there is no problem with more than
99.99% of these pixels, please understand that a very small number of pixels may not light or
may light all the time.
Do not install the TV near electronic equipment that is susceptible to electromagnetic
waves
It may cause interference in images, sound, etc. In particular, keep video equipment away from
this product.
Effect on infrared devices
There may be interference while using infrared devices such as infrared cordless headphones.
The phenomenon described below is not a malfunction.
If the television is used at a location above an altitude of 2,000 m, a buzzing noise and image
distortion may occur. This phenomenon is peculiar to PDP (Plasma Display Panel), and could
occur with any television using PDP. It is not a malfunction.
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
When it gets dirty, wipe it gently with a soft 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.

Connecting to JVC AV Compu Link
JVC’s AV CompuLink feature makes playing video tapes or DVDs totally automatic. Simply
insert a pre-recorded tape into your JVC brand VCR or DVD into your JVC DVD player and
the device will automatically turn on and begin playback. At the same time, using the
AV CompuLink, the VCR or DVD player sends a signal to the television telling it to turn on
and switch to the proper video input.
• The AV CompuLink cable may be included with the JVC AV CompuLink unit you
wish to connect. If it is not, contact JVC Parts Department at (800)-882-2345, or
• AV CompuLink can only be used with JVC brand products.
To Connect: Plug one end of the AV compu link cable
into the AV COMPU LINK INPUT on your VCR, DVD, or
AV CompuLink Cable
other compu link device. Plug the other end of the AV
compu link cable into the AV COMPU LINK at the rear
of the receiver.

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.

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 greyscale is often lost, turning completely
to black. DGC automatically enhances the detail in these dark areas providing a more dynamic
image with finer detail, so the optimum picture settings are automatically set for each picture.

The following are not malfunctions.
•
The television may make a creaking sound if the temperature of the room or the
temperature of the inside of the television changes. If there is no problem with the screen or
sound, then there is no need to worry.
•
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.
• If the television is used at a location above 2,000 m, a buzzing noise and image distortion
may occur. This phenomenon is peculiar to PDP (Plasma Display Panel), and could occur
with any television using PDP. It is not a malfunction.
