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:

• The manual mainly explains operations using the buttons and controls on the unit. You can also use the buttons on the remote control if they have the same or similar names (or marks) as those on the unit.

If operation using the remote control is different from that using the unit, it is then explained.

• Basic and common information that is the same for many functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in 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 “Common Operations” on pages 9 to 11.

• The following marks are used in this manual:

Gives you warnings and cautions to prevent damage or risk of fire/electric shock.

Also 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.

Power sources

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

DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet hands.

Moisture condensation

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

• After starting heating in 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, and then plug it in again.

Others

• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug the unit 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.

Precautions

Installation

• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold — between 5˚C (41˚F) and 35˚C (95˚F).

• Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat built-up in the unit.

• Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.

• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference with TV.

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

• No blank at the beginning of a song.

• Noise (often caused by much use or poor quality dubbing) which fills the blank.

• Long, very soft passages or pauses in a song.

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

Recording

IMPORTANT:

• 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 control and the

SUBWOOFER VOLUME control. Thus, during recording you can adjust the sound you are actually listening to without affecting the recording level.

• While recording, you can hear sound modes through the speakers or headphones. However, the sound is recorded without these effects (see page 10).

• If recordings you have made have excessive noise or static, the unit may be too close to a TV. Increase the distance between the TV and the unit.

• You can use type I and II tapes for recording.

To protect your recording

Cassettes have two small tabs on the back to protect unexpected erasure or re-recording.

To protect your recording, remove these tabs.

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

When using type II tape, be careful not to cover the holes used to detect the tape type.

To keep the best recording and playback sound quality

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

• Impaired 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.

Using the Microphones

You can enjoy singing along (Karaoke) and microphone mixing by using two microphones.

• The MIC LEVEL control adjustment is valid for both microphones connected the MIC 1 and MIC 2 jacks.

IMPORTANT:

• Always set the MIC LEVEL to MIN when connecting or disconnecting the microphone.

• When you do not use the microphone, keep the microphones unconnected.

Singing Along

If howling or squealing (feedback) occurs while using the microphone(s)

Take the following actions to prevent these noises.

• Adjust the MIC LEVEL and VOLUME controls.

• Avoid pointing the microphone(s) towards the speakers.

• When two microphones are connected, turn off the On/Off switch on the unused microphone.

If you use the following sources as the playing source for Vocal Masking, you cannot get the satisfactory results

• Radio programs — a radio signal is not as reliable as the signals coming from a tape or CD.

• Monaural sources.

• Poorly dubbed tapes.

• Sources recorded with duets, strong echo, a chorus, or only a few instruments.

Microphone mixing

When you sing along with multiplex tapes or CDs, follow the procedure below:

Vocal Masking

Vocal Masking reduces the lead vocal of the playing source, and allows you to replace it by singing into the microphones as the music plays.

How Recording Timer actually works

The unit automatically turns on, tunes into the specified station, sets the volume level to “MIN,” and starts recording when the on-time comes (the indicator flashes just before the on-time, and continues flashing while the timer is operating).

(stands by).

The timer setting remains in memory until you change it.

Maintenance

To get the best performance of the unit, keep your discs, tapes, and mechanism clean.

Handling discs

• Remove the disc from its case by holding it at the edge while pressing the center hole lightly.

• Do not touch the shiny surface of the disc, or bend the disc.

• Put the disc back in its case after use to prevent warping.

Handling cassette tapes

• If the tape is loose in its cassette, take up the slack by inserting a pencil in one of the reels and rotating.

• If the tape is loose, it may get stretched, cut, or caught in the cassette.

• Be careful not to touch the tape surface.

• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the disc when placing it back in its case.

• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, temperature extremes, and moisture.

To clean the disc

Wipe the disc with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

• Avoid the following places to store the tape:

— In dusty places

— In direct sunlight or heat

— In moist areas

— Near a magnet

DO NOT use any solvent — such as conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, or benzine — to clean the disc.
