- The product should be placed more than one foot
away from heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, and other products (including
ampliers) that produce heat.
- When connecting other products such as VCR’s,
and DVD players, you should turn off the power of
this product for protection against electric shock.
-Do not place combustibles behind the cooling fan.
For example, cloth, paper, matches, aerosol cans
or gas lighters that present special hazards when
over heated.
- Do not look into the projection lens while the
illumination lamp is turned on. Exposure of your
eyes to the strong light can result in impaired
eyesight.
- Do not look into the inside of this unit through
vents (ventilation holes), etc. Do not look at the
illumination lamp directly by opening the cabinet
while the illumination lamp is turned on. The
illumination lamp also contains ultraviolet rays and
the light is so powerful that your eyesight can be
impaired.
- Do not drop, hit, or damage the light-source lamp
(lamp unit) in any way. It may cause the light-
source lamp to break and lead to injuries. Do not
use a damaged light source lamp. If the light-
source lamp is broken, ask your dealer to repair it.
Fragments from a broken light-source lamp may
cause injuries.
- The light-source lamp used in this projector is a
high pressure mercury lamp. Be careful when
disposing of the light-source lamp. If anything is
unclear, please consult your dealer.
- Do not ceiling-mount the projector to a place which
tends to vibrate; otherwise, the attaching xture of
the projector could be broken by the vibration,
possibly causing it to fall or overturn, which could
lead to personal injury.
- Use only the accessory cord designed for this
product to prevent shock.
- For health reasons, please take a break of about
5-15 minutes every 30-60 minutes and let your
eyes rest. Please refrain from watching any 3D-
images when you feel tired, unwell or if you feel
any other discomfort. Moreover, in case you see a
double image, please adjust the equipment and
software for proper display. Please stop using the
unit if the double image is still visible after
adjustment.
- Once every three years, please perform an internal
test. This unit is provided with replacement parts
needed to maintain its function (such as cooling
fans). Estimated replacement time of parts can
vary greatly depending on frequency of use and
the respective environment. For replacement,
please consult your dealer, or the nearest
authorized JVC service center.
- When xing the unit to the ceiling, Please note that
we do not take any responsibility, even during the
warranty period, if the product is damaged due to
use of metal xtures used for xation to the ceiling
other than our own or if the installation
environment of said metal xtures is not
appropriate. If the unit is suspended from the
ceiling during use, please be careful in regard to
the ambient temperature of the unit. If you use
a central heating, the temperature close to the
ceiling will be higher than normally expected.

to take regular breaks. As the length and
frequency of the required breaks differ for every
person, please judge according to your own
condition.
- If your child watches while wearing 3D glasses,
it should be accompanied by its parents or an
adult guardian. The adult guardian should be
careful to avoid situations where the child’s eyes
might become tired, as responses to tiredness
and discomfort, etc., are hard to detect, and it is
possible for the physical condition to deteriorate
very quickly. As the visual sense is not yet fully
developed in children under the age of 6, please
consult a physician in regard to any problem
concerning 3D-images if necessary.
- Note that when using the 3D feature, the video
output may appear different from the original
video image due to image conversion on the
device.
*DO NOT allow any unqualied person
to install the unit.
Be sure to ask your dealer to install the unit
(e.g.attaching it to the ceiling) since special
technical knowledge and skills are required
for installation. If installation is performed by
an unqualied person, it may cause personal
injury or electrical shock.

RS60
THX Certication
Established by lm producer George Lucas, THX aims to enhance the reproduction of
audio sound and video images intended by lmmakers by setting quality standards for
cinema viewing environments as well as home entertainment systems.
Based on the know-how that we have cultivated over the past 25 years in areas including
lm production, cinema viewing environment design, and audio/video editing, we have
established a partnership with JVC to develop an unprecedented home theater projector
system.
The emphases of THX Certication lie in the video quality and signal processing
capability of projector products. JVC projectors, DLA-RS50 and DLA-RS60, are equipped
with the THX mode, which is able to bring out the full potential of the projector when
playing movies on a large screen.
Also, JVC front projectors are the rst in the world (*1) to have gained the “THX 3D
Display Certication” (*2) by THX Ltd.
In addition, the certication standards were established with the aim to “faithfully
reproduce images at home according to the intentions of the lm director” during
playback of 2D or 3D images, and they are “a proof of high denition and high image
quality”, indicating that a certied product has cleared more than 400 rigorous image
quality tests including accuracy of color reproduction, cross-talk, viewing angles, and
video processing performance.
CAUTION
In order for you to enjoy 3D movies:
• Please get ready “3D glasses” and a “3D Sync Emitter” (both sold separately).
• Please read through “Safety Precautions” (Reference page: 4), and the precautions in
“Explanatory Notes on the 3D System” in “Operation Guide (Glossary)”
(Reference page: 57).
*1: “First” here refers to the rst among front projectors as at November 1,
2010 based on research by JVC.
*2: The recommended screen size is 90″ (16:9), and this is limited to front
projection only.

About installation
Important points concerning the installation
This unit is a precision device. Therefore, please refrain
from installation or use in the following locations.
Otherwise, it may cause re or malfunction.
•Dust, wet and humid locations.
•Sooty or cigarette smoke lled locations.
•On top of a carpet or bedding, or other soft surfaces.
•Locations with high temperatures - as located in direct
sunlight.
•Locations with high or low temperatures.
Permissible operating temperature range: +5 ºto +35º.
Relative humidity range permissible for operating: 20%
~ 80% (non-condensing) .
Storage temperature tolerance: -10ºto +60º.
•If the installation of the unit is done in a room with soot
and/or smoke over a longer period, even small amounts
of these substances will affect the device.This unit
cools its optical components, which produce a great
amount of heat, by sucking in air. If the optical circuits
get dirty, this might lead to malfunctions, like the video
images becoming darker or a deterioration of the color
development. Dirt sticking to the optical components
cannot be removed.
For better heat dissipation, please keep a minimum
distance between this unit and its surroundings as shown
in the following illustration.
Moreover, please open the front of the unit. If there are
any objects in front of the exhaust port, the hot air will
ow back to the unit and heat it. The hot air owing out of
the unit might cause shadows on the screen (heat haze
phenomenon).
Moreover, when it is enclosed in a space as shown in the
following illustration, please make sure that the enclosed
interior has the same temperature as the outside. High
temperatures might lead to failure of the unit.
This unit uses a projection lamp, which will get hot when
in use. Please refrain from projecting in the following
circumstances.
Otherwise, it might cause re or malfunction.
•Projection while lying on its side.
Please avoid projection if the installation of the unit is
done at an excessive angle of more than ±30 °
. It may
cause harm to the life of the lamp and color shading.
•Please avoid projection at a location where the air vents
or exhaust ports might get blocked.
Please choose a non-uniform cloth material for the screen.
If you choose something uniform, like something with a
checkered pattern, there might be interference with the
pixel array of the D-ILA components. One way to reduce
the interference pattern is to change the size of the screen,
so that it will not be so noticeable.
Inclination adjustment
