Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a JVC product.
Please read all instructions carefully before operation, to ensure your complete understanding and
to obtain the best possible performance from the unit.
Precautions
Installation
• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold—between 5°C and 35°C.
• Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat buildup inside the
unit.
• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.
• Keep the unit away from the TV to avoid interference with TV.
Power Sources
• When unplugging the unit from the wall outlet, always pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.
Internal Heat
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug the AC power cord 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.
If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer.
DO NOT install the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet hands.
For safety, observe the following carefully:
• Make sure there is good ventilation around the unit. Poor ventilation could overheat
and damage the unit.
• DO NOT block the ventilation openings or holes. If they are blocked by a newspaper
or cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get out.
DO NOT disassemble the unit since there are no user serviceable parts inside.

Prepare the Remote Control
When you use the remote control for the first
time, pull out the insulation sheet.
Replacing the battery in the remote control
Insert the battery into the remote control by
matching the polarity (+ and –) correctly.
• If the range or effectiveness of the remote
control decreases, replace the battery.
WARNINGS:
• Store the battery in a place where children
cannot reach. If a child accidentally swallows
the battery, consult a doctor immediately.
• Do not recharge, short, disassemble or heat
the battery or dispose of it in a fire. Doing any
of these things may cause the battery to give
off heat, crack, or start a fire.
• Do not leave the battery with other metallic
materials. Doing this may cause the battery to
give off heat, crack, or start a fire.
• When throwing away or saving the battery,
wrap it in tape and insulate; otherwise, the
battery may start to give off heat, crack, or
start a fire.
• Do not poke the battery with tweezers or
similar tools. Doing this may cause the battery
to give off heat, crack, or start a fire.
• Dispose of battery in the proper manner,
according to federal, state, and local
regulations.
In this manual, operations using the remote
control are mainly explained; however, you
can use the buttons and controls on the unit if
