2. 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 your dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
CAUTION:TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, MAKE SURE POWER CORD IS UNPLUGGED FROM WALL SOCKET. TO FULLY

Recommended Use
CAUTION
CORRECT PLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE DISPLAY
CAN REDUCE EYE, SHOULDER AND NECK FATIGUE. CHECK
THE FOLLOWING WHEN YOU POSITION THE DISPLAY:
• For optimum performance, allow 20 minutes for warm-up.
•Rest your eyes periodically by focusing on an object at least
20 feet away. Blink often.
•Position the display at a 90˚ angle to windows and other light
sources to minimize glare and reflections. Adjust the display
tilt so that ceiling lights do not reflect on your screen.
•If reflected light makes it hard for you to see your screen, use
an antiglare filter.
•Clean the LCD display surface with a lint-free, nonabrasive
cloth. Avoid using any cleaning solution or glass cleaner.
•Adjust the display’s back light and contrast controls to en-
hance readability.
•Position whatever you are looking at most of the time (the
screen or reference material) directly in front of you to mini-
mize turning your head while you are typing.
•Avoid displaying fixed patterns on the display for long peri-
ods of time to avoid image persistence (afterimage effects).
•Get regular eye checkups.
•The lamp of backlight contains mercury. Please handle it ap-
propriately in case of disposal.
Ergonomics
To realize the maximum ergonomics benefits, we recommend the
following:
•Use the preset Size and Position controls with standard
signals
•Use the preset Color Setting
•Use non-interlaced signals with a vertical refresh rate between
58-62Hz
•Do not use primary color blue on a dark background, as it is
difficult to see and may produce eye fatigue to insufficient
contrast
Safety Precautions and Maintenance
FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING WHEN
SETTING UP AND USING THE GD-30L1G:
•DO NOT OPEN THE DISPLAY. There are no user serviceable parts
inside and opening or removing covers may expose you to dan-
gerous shock hazards or other risks. Refer all servicing to quali-
fied service personnel.
•Do not spill any liquids into the cabinet or use your display near
water.
•Do not insert objects of any kind into the cabinet slots, as they
may touch dangerous voltage points, which can be harmful or
fatal or may cause electric shock, fire or equipment failure.
•Do not place any heavy objects on the power cord. Damage to
the cord may cause shock or fire.
•Do not place this product on a sloping or unstable cart, stand or
table, as the display may fall, causing serious damage to the
display.
•Use a power supply cord that matches with the power supply
voltage of the AC power outlet being used.
•Do not place any objects onto the display and do not use the
display outdoors.
•The inside of the fluorescent tube located within the LCD
display contains mercury.
•Do not bend power cord.
•Do not use display in high temperature, humid, dusty, or oily ar-
eas.
•If glass is broken, handle with care.
• Do not cover vent on display.
•If display or glass is broken, do not come in contact with the liquid
crystal and handle with care.
•Allow adequate ventilation around the display so that heat can
properly dissipate. Do not block ventilated openings or place the
display near a radiator or other heat sources. Do not put any-
thing on top of display.
•The power cable connector is the primary means of detaching the
system from the power supply. The display should be installed
close to a power outlet which is easily accessible.
•Handle with care when transporting. Save packaging for
transporting.
•Please follow the bylaws or rules of your municipality to
dispose of the tube properly.
• Keep the holes on the back of the LCD clean of dirt and dust.
It is recommended to wipe holes with a soft cloth a minimum of
once per year.
CAUTION
Immediately unplug your display from the wall outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under the following
conditions:
•When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
•If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the display.
•If the display has been exposed to rain or water.
•If the display has been dropped or the cabinet damaged.
•If the display does not operate normally by following operating
instructions.

You can attach mounting accessories to the LCD display in one of
the following two ways:
1. In the upright position
Ventilation Requirements for enclosure
mounting
To allow heat to disperse, leave space between surrounding
objects as shown in the diagram to the right.
Attaching LCD Options
2. Lay the screen face down
To avoid damaging the screen face, place the protective sheet on the
table to lay the LCD on. The protective sheet was wrapped around
the LCD in the original packaging.
This device cannot be used or installed without the Tabletop Stand or
other mounting accessory. For proper installation it is strongly rec-
ommended to use a trained, JVC authorized service person. Failure
to follow JVC standard mounting procedures could result in dam-
age to the equipment or injury to the user or installer. Product war-
ranty does not cover damage caused by improper installation. Fail-
ure to follow these recommendations could result in voiding your
warranty.
When using mounting accessories, they must be compatible with
VESA®Flat Display Mounting Interface Standard FOR 23“ TO 30.9“
DIAGONAL Flat Displays (Hole Pattern 200 mm x 100 mm). JVC
strongly recommends using screws M4 size and 8mm in length. If
using screws longer than 8mm, check the depth of the hole. (Rec-
ommended Fastern Force: 150 - 170N•cm)
JVC recommends using mounting interface that comply with UL1678
standard in North America.
When using the mounting accesories, screw the mouting
accessories in the rear of the display.
Hole Pattern:
200 mm x 100 mm (by using 6 screws)
To avoid falling down
Fasten the LCD display to a wall using a cord or chain which is
sufficient to support the weight of the LCD display (approx. 16kg).
*Ambient temperature should be less than 40 deg C
*
Screw holes (for using 6 screws)
Caution:
•This unit does not stand stable without the tabletop stands.
Use the mounting accesories (not supplied) to install it without the
tabletop stands.
For details, refer to the instruction manual of the mounting
accesories.
•When display is installed in the portrait position, left edge should
be upper from front view.
Before moving the LCD display, the cord or chain should be re-
moved.

The LCD display follows the VESA approved DPMS Power Man-
agement function.
The power management function is an energy saving function that
automatically reduces the power consumption of the display when
the keyboard or the mouse has not been used for a fixed period of
time.
The power management feature on your new display has been set
to the “ON” mode. This allows your display to enter a Power
Saving Mode when no signal is applied. This could potentially
increase the life and decrease the power consumption of the dis-
play.
