Quick Setup 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).

Lift and pull the latch on the back of the remote control to open. Insert two batteries

(included) carefully noting the “+” and “–” markings, placing the “–” end in the unit first.

Snap 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 18 - 21.

Notes:

• If your VCR is a mono sound unit, it will have only one audio out jack. Connect it to the TV’s

LEFT AUDIO INPUT.

• Use the S-Video connection if possible for superior picture quality.

• Your VCR must be turned on to view premium cable channels.

12

AV-27\32D305 English 12 1/21/04, 9:38 AM


Notes:

• Green, blue and red are the most common colors for DVD cables. Some models may vary colors. Please consult the user’s manual for your DVD player for more information.

• Be careful not to confuse the red DVD cable with the red audio cable. It is best to complete one set of connections (DVD or audio output) before starting the other to avoid accidentally switching the cables.

• Progressive DVD players (players with an output scan of 31.5 KHz) will not work properly with this television. Set your DVD player’s output to “interlaced”, or non-progressive mode.

Quick Setup Plug-In Menu

Step 3 – The Interactive Plug In Menu

When you turn your television on for the first time the interactive plug-in menu will appear. The plug-in menu helps you to get your TV ready to use by letting you set your preferences for:

• The language in which you want the onscreen menus to appear.

• Setting the TV’s clock to the correct time so your timer functions will work properly. You can choose “AUTO” or “MANUAL” for setting the clock.

• The auto tuner setup of which channels you wish to receive.

We recommend you complete the interactive plug-in items before you start using your television.

Language

After the “JVC INTERACTIVE PLUG IN MENU” has been displayed, the TV automatically switches to the LANGUAGE settings. You can choose to view your onscreen menus in three languages: English, French (Français) or Spanish (Español).

Auto Tuner Setup

In auto tuner setup, the TV automatically scans through all available channels, memorizing the active ones and skipping over blank ones or channels with weak signals. This means when you scan (using the C

HANNEL

+/– buttons) you will receive only clear, active channels.

When the setup is finished, THANK YOU!! SETUP IS NOW COMPLETE is displayed. Your quick setup is now complete. You can now begin watching your television, or you can continue on in this guide for more information on programming your remote control, or using the JVC onscreen menu system to customize your television viewing experience.

Notes:

• Noise muting will not work during Auto Tuner Setup.

• Skip appears only for interactive plug-in menu.

• The interactive plug-in menu setting does not appear if your TV has been turned on before. In this case, use the initial setup menu to perform these settings. See pages 24, 32 and 37.

Cable Box and Satellite Users: After your auto tuner setup is complete, you may, (depending on the type of hookup), have only 1 channel, usually 3 or 4 in the auto tuner memory. This is normal.
