Introduction

We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.

Before operating this unit, read this manual carefully and thoroughly to obtain the best possible performance from your unit, and retain this manual for future reference.

About This Manual

This manual is organized as follows:

• This manual mainly explains playback and editing operations using the remote control, and other operations such as recording using the buttons on the main unit.

You can use the buttons both on the remote control and on the main unit for the same operations if they have the same or similar names (or marks), unless mentioned otherwise.

• Basic and common information that is the same for many functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated for each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the information about turning on/off the unit, setting the volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are explained in the section “Basic and Common

Operations” on pages 18 to 23.

• The following symbols are used in this manual:

Gives you warning and caution to prevent damage or risk of fire/electric shock.

Furthermore, gives you information which is not good for obtaining the best possible performance from the unit.

Gives you information and hints you had better know.

• Although the speakers are magnetically shielded, the TV may be mottled. In this case, keep the distance from the speakers to the TV until the speakers does not affect the

TV.

DO NOT install the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.

Power sources

• When unplugging the unit from the wall outlet, always pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.

DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet hands.

Moisture condensation

Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the unit in the following cases:

• After starting to heat the room

• In a damp room

• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm place

Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case, leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.

Others

• The electronic swing panel may malfunction when you use this unit under intense light such as sunlight.

DO NOT expose this unit to intense light.

Precautions

Installation

• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold—between 5˚C and 35˚C.

• The unit is equipped with the cooling fan which makes possible the high-powered operations with the limited space. When the temperature inside the unit increases due to operating the unit at high volume or consecutively, the cooling fan activates to lower the temperature.

Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat buildup in the unit.

• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.

• 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.

DO NOT disassemble the unit since there are no user serviceable parts inside.

If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer.

In addition to the above discs, this unit can play back audio data recorded on CD Text, CD-G (CD Graphics), and

CD-Extra.

• The following discs cannot be played back:

DVD Audio, DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, DVD-RW,

DVD-R, CD-ROM, CD-I (CD-I Ready), Photo CD, etc.

Playing back these discs will generate noise and damage the speakers.

• On some DVD, SVCD, or VCD, the actual operations may be different from what is explained in this manual, due to the programming and disc structure; such difference are not a malfunction of this unit.

• Continued use of irregular shape discs (heart-shape, octagonal, etc.) can damage the unit.

• The Macrovision’s copy protection system is applied to this unit. If you make a copy on your VCR from a disc that is recorded this copy protection signal, the copy cannot be played back normally.

*

1

Note on Region Code

DVD players and DVDs have their own Region Code numbers. This unit can play back only DVDs recorded with the NTSC or PAL color system whose Region Code numbers include “6.”

Ex.:

6

5 6

3 4

5 6

If a DVD with the improper Region Code numbers is loaded, “REGION CODE ERROR” appears on the display and playback cannot start.

*

2

Note on Video Format

• DVDs recorded with the PAL color system cannot be converted into the NTSC color system.

• DVDs recorded with the NTSC color system can be converted into the PAL color system.

• When playing back a SVCD or VCD, the unit can convert both from PAL to NTSC and NTSC to PAL.

Notes on CD-R and CD-RW

• User-edited CD-Rs (Recordable) and CD-RWs

(Rewritable) can be played back only if they have been

“finalized.”

• The unit can play back CD-Rs or CD-RWs if they have been recorded in the audio CD format.

The unit can also play back CD-Rs or CD-RWs if MP3 files are recorded on them.

However, these discs may not play back because of their disc characteristics, recording conditions, damage to the disc.

• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time, as the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular CDs.

About audio formats

Some audio formats used on discs are described below:

• Linear PCM

Uncompressed digital audio, the same format used on

CDs and most studio masters.

DVD supports 2-channels at sampling rates of 48/96 kHz and quantization of 16/20/24 bits.

Audio CD/Video CD is limited to 2-channels at 44.1 kHz at 16 bits.

• Dolby Digital

A surround audio format configured with up to six channels. Because the “LFE (Low-Frequency Effect for sub-woofer, etc.)” channel is an auxiliary channel, so this format is called “5.1-channel system.”

Not all Dolby Digital discs contain six (5.1) channel information.

• DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

A surround audio format configured with up to six (5.1) channel which is the same as Dolby Digital. Because the compression ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it provides wider dynamic range and better separation.

Not all DTS discs contain six (5.1) channel information.

• MPEG Multichannel

A surround audio format which can handle the augmentative 7.1-channel format (rare for home use), as well as 5.1-channel.

Disc Structure

A DVD consists of “titles,” and each title may be divided into “chapters.” (See Example 1.)

For example, if a DVD disc contains some movies, each movie may have its own title number, and it may be further divided into chapters.

Example 1: DVD

On the other hand, a SVCD, VCD, and Audio CD consist of “tracks.” (See Example 2.)

In general, each track has its own track number. (On some discs, each track may also be divided by Indexes.)

Example 2: SVCD/VCD/Audio CD

IMPORTANT:

• This unit does not provide the DTS decoding function.

The sound signals of DTS are only output through the

DVD OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT terminal and are not output through the speakers of this unit.

To listen to the sound of DTS, connect a DTS decoder or an amplifier compatible with DTS.

• To reproduce the multichannel sounds such as Dolby

Digital 5.1 ch, DTS Digital Surround and MPEG

Multichannel, connect an amplifier or a decoder compatible with these multichannel sources to this unit. (See page 11.)

• Playing back an Audio CD whose sound is encoded with DTS may generate noise and damage the speakers.

When playing such a disc, turn the volume level on this unit to minimum.

MP3 Basic Operations

Available for:

• To play back a DVD, see page 29.

• To play back a SVCD, VCD, or Audio CD, see page 30.

About MP3 disc

What is MP3?

MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group 1 (or

MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format with a data compression. By using MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain 10 times as much data volume as a regular CD can.

Disc structure

On an MP3 disc, each item (song) is recorded as a track (file), which usually belongs to a group (folder).

Group 1 Group 2

Track 1 Track 2 Track 3 Track 4 Track 5

This unit can recognize up to 99 groups and up to 254 tracks per group; however, the number of tracks to be played back on a disc is limited to 1023.

If a disc includes more than 1023 tracks, the unit ignores any tracks which have been assigned track numbers exceeding 1023.

The unit also ignores any non-MP3 files on the disc.

NOTES for MP3 discs

• MP3 discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer readout time, due to the complexity of the folder/file configuration.

• When making an MP3 disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2 as the disc format.

• Some MP3 discs may not be played back because of their disc characteristics or recording conditions.

• The unit does not support “packet writing” of discs.

• If there are any tracks (files) which are stored on a disc directly and do not belong to any group (folder), the unit recognizes them as belonging to a particular group.

• The unit does not output a digital audio signal from the DVD

OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT terminal when playing back an MP3 disc.

• The unit plays back groups/tracks on an MP3 disc in alphabetical order.

Ex.: When there are three title groups [one], [two] and [three] on a disc:

Recorded playback order

1 one

2 two

3 three

Unavailable functions for MP3 disc

• There are some restriction for playback of MP3 discs.

Following functions are not available for MP3 discs.

– Screen saver function (See page 28.)

Before You Start Recording on a Tape

• It may be unlawful to record or play back copyrighted material without the consent of the copyright

owner.

• The recording level is automatically set correctly, so it is not affected by the volume level and the tone level adjustment—“BASS” and “TREBLE” (see pages 20 and 21). Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.

• While recording, you can hear the AHB PRO (Active Hyper Bass Pro) effect through the speakers or headphones.

However, the sound is recorded without this effect (see page 21).

• While recording, the 3D PHONIC function (see page 48) or the COMPRESSION function (see page 58) is activated, the sound is recorded with these effects.

• If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static, the unit may be too close to a TV. Place the unit away from the TV.

• You can use only type I tapes for recording.

To protect your recordings

Cassettes have two small taps on the back to protect against unexpected erasure or recording.

To protect your recording, remove these tabs.

To re-record on a protected tape, cover the holes with adhesive tape.

Adhesive tape

Do not use type II and type IV tapes since the unit is not compatible with such tapes.

The use of the C-120 or thinner tape is not recommended, since characteristic deterioration may occur and this tape easily jams in the pinch rollers and the capstans.

To keep the best recording and playback sound quality

If the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers of the cassette deck become dirty, the following will occur:

• Loss of sound quality

• Discontinuous sound

• Fading

• Incomplete erasure

• Difficulty in recording

To clean the heads, capstans, and pinch rollers

Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol.

To demagnetize the head

At the start and end of cassette tapes

There is leader tape which cannot be recorded onto. Thus, when recording from discs, FM/AM broadcasts, or external equipment, wind the leader tape first to ensure that the recording will be made without any music part lost.
