Introduction

ISSUED

When the equipment is installed in a

cabinet or on a shelf, make sure that it

has sufficient space on all sides to allow

for ventilation (10 cm (3-15/16") or more

on both sides, on top and at the rear).

Do not block the ventilation holes.

(If the ventilation holes are blocked by a

newspaper, or cloth etc. the heat may not

be able to get out.)

No naked flame sources, such as lighted

candles, should be placed on the

apparatus.

When discarding batteries,

environmental problems must be

considered and the local rules or laws

governing the disposal of these batteries

must be followed strictly.

The apparatus shall not be exposed to

dripping or splashing and that no objects

filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be

placed on the apparatus.

Do not point the lens directly into the

sun. This can cause eye injuries, as well

as lead to the malfunctioning of internal

circuitry. There is also a risk of fire or

electric shock.

CAUTION!

The following notes concern possible

physical damage to this unit and to the

user.

Carrying or holding this unit by the LCD

monitor can result in dropping the unit,

or in a malfunction.

Do not use a tripod on unsteady or

unlevel surfaces. It could tip over,

causing serious damage to the unit.

CAUTION!

Connecting cables (Audio/Video, etc.) to

this unit and leaving it on top of the TV is

not recommended, as tripping on the

cables will cause the unit to fall, resulting

in damage.

When using the AC adapter in

areas other than the USA

The provided AC adapter features

automatic voltage selection in the AC

range from 110 V to 240 V.

USING HOUSEHOLD AC PLUG

ADAPTER

In case of connecting the unit’s power

cord to an AC wall outlet other than

American National Standard C73 series

type, use an AC plug adapter called a

“Siemens Plug” as shown.

For this AC plug adapter, consult your

nearest JVC dealer.

 Remove the AC adapter from the AC

wall outlet when not in use.

 Do not leave dust or metal objects

adhered to the AC wall outlet or AC

adapter (power/DC plug).

the terminal identifications of your plug,

connect as follows:

Blue wire to terminal coded N (Neutral)

or coloured black.

Brown wire to terminal coded L (Live) or

coloured Red.

If in doubt — consult a competent

electrician.

CAUTIONS:

 To prevent shock, do not open the

cabinet. No user serviceable parts

Battery Pack

The supplied battery pack is a lithium-ion

battery. Before using the supplied battery

pack or an optional battery pack, be sure

to read the following cautions:

 To avoid hazards

... do not burn.

When transporting, carry the battery in

a plastic bag.

... do not modify or disassemble.

... do not expose the battery to

temperatures exceeding 60°C (140°F),

as this may cause the battery to

overheat, explode or catch fire.

... use only specified chargers.

 To prevent damage and prolong

service life

... do not subject to unnecessary shock.

... charge within the temperature range

of 10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F). Cooler

temperatures require longer charging

time, or in some cases stop charging

at all. Warmer temperatures prevent

complete charging, or in some cases

stop charging at all.

... store in a cool, dry place. Extended

exposure to high temperatures will

increase natural discharge and

shorten service life.

... keep a 30% battery level if the

battery pack is not to be used for a

long period of time.

In addition, fully charge and then fully

discharge the battery pack every 6

months, then continue to store it at a

30% battery level .

... remove from charger or powered unit

when not in use, as some machines

use current even when switched off.

... do not drop or subject to strong

impact.

... do not short-circuit the

terminals. Keep it away

from metallic objects

when not in use.
