More about this unit

Basic operations

Turning on the power

• By pressing SOURCE on the unit, you can also turn on the power. If the source is ready, playback also starts.

Turning off the power

• If you turn off the power while listening to a track, playback will start from where it had been stopped previously next time you turn on the power.

General

• If you change the source while listening to a disc, playback stops.

Next time you select “CD” as the playback source, playback will start from where it had been stopped previously.

• After ejecting a disc or removing a USB device,

“No Disc” or “No USB” appears and you cannot operate some of the buttons. Insert another disc, reattach a USB device, or press SOURCE to select another playback source.

Tuner operations

Storing stations in memory

• During SSM search...

– All previously stored stations are erased and the stations are stored anew.

– Received stations are preset in No. 1 (lowest frequency) to No. 6 (highest frequency).

– When SSM is over, the station stored in No. 1 will be automatically tuned in.

• When storing a station manually, the previously preset station is erased when a new station is stored in the same preset number.

Disc/USB operations

Caution for DualDisc playback

• The Non-DVD side of a “DualDisc” does not comply with the “Compact Disc Digital Audio” standard.

Therefore, the use of Non-DVD side of a DualDisc on this product may not be recommended.

General

• This unit has been designed to reproduce

CDs/CD Texts, and CD-Rs (Recordable)/CD-RWs

(Rewritable) in audio CD (CD-DA), MP3 and WMA formats.

• When a disc is inserted upside down, “Please Eject” appears on the display. Press OPEN, then 0 to eject the disc.

• In this manual, words “track” and “file” are interchangeably used.

• While fast-forwarding or reversing on MP3/WMA/

WAV files, you can only hear intermittent sounds.

• File/folder list may not appear correctly if too many hierarchies and folders are used.

• If the ejected disc is not removed within 15 seconds, the disc is automatically inserted again into the loading slot again to protect it from dust. Playback starts automatically.

Playing a CD-R or CD-RW

• Use only “finalized” CD-Rs or CD-RWs.

• This unit can only play back files of the same type as those which are detected first if a disc includes both audio CD (CD-DA) files and MP3/WMA files.

• This unit can play back multi-session discs; however, unclosed sessions will be skipped while playing.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, or for the following reasons:

– Discs are dirty or scratched.

– Moisture condensation has occurred on the lens inside the unit.


REFERENCE 29

– The pickup lens inside the unit is dirty.

– The files on the CD-R/CD-RW are written using the

“Packet Write” method.

– There are improper recording conditions (missing data, etc.) or media conditions (stained, scratched, warped, etc.).

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time since the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than that of regular

CDs.

• Do not use the following CD-Rs or CD-RWs:

– Discs with stickers, labels, or a protective seal stuck to the surface.

– Discs on which labels can be directly printed by an ink jet printer.

Using these discs under high temperature or high humidity may cause malfunctions or damage to the unit.

Maintenance

How to clean the connectors

Frequent detachment will deteriorate the connectors.

To minimize this possibility, periodically wipe the connectors with a cotton swab or cloth moistened with alcohol, being careful not to damage the connectors.

Connectors

To keep discs clean

A dirty disc may not play correctly.

If a disc does become dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth in a straight line from center to edge.

• Do not use any solvents (for example, conventional record cleaner, spray, thinner, benzine, etc.) to clean discs.

To play new discs

New discs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges. If such a disc is used, this unit may reject the disc.

To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point pen, etc.

Moisture condensation

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

• After starting the heater in the car.

• If it becomes very humid inside the car.

Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case, eject the disc and leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture has evaporated.

How to handle discs

When removing a disc from its case, press down the center holder of the case and lift the disc out, holding it by

Center holder the edges.

• Always hold the disc by the edges. Do not touch its recording surface.

When storing a disc in its case, gently insert the disc around the center holder (with the printed surface facing up).

• Make sure to store discs in cases after use.

Do not use the following discs:

Single CD (8 cm disc) Warped disc

Sticker and sticker residue

Unusual shape

Stick-on label

This unit is designed to operate on 12 V DC, NEGATIVE ground electrical systems . If your vehicle does not have this system, a voltage inverter is required, which can be purchased at JVC car audio dealers.

本機僅可使用直流 12 V 、負極接地的電源系統。如果您的車輛沒有這一電源系統，則需要一個電

壓變換器，可以在 JVC 汽車音響分銷商處買到。

WARNINGS 警告

To prevent short circuits, we recommend that you disconnect the battery’s negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the unit.

• Be sure to ground this unit to the car’s chassis again after installation.

為防止短路，建議在安裝本機之前，拔開電池的負極，並把所有電路都連接好。

• 安裝完畢後務必將本機的地線重新接至車身。

Notes:

• Replace the fuse with one of the specified rating. If the fuse blows frequently, consult your JVC car audio dealer.

• It is recommended to connect speakers with a maximum power of more than 50 W (both at the rear and at the front, with an impedance of 4 Ω to 8 Ω ). If the maximum power is less than 50 W, change

“Amp Gain” setting to prevent the speakers from being damaged (see page 25 of the INSTRUCTIONS).

• To prevent short circuits, cover the terminals of the UNUSED leads with insulating tape.

• The heat sink becomes very hot after use. Be careful not to touch it when removing this unit.

注意：

• 把保險絲更換為額定負荷值的保險絲。如果保險絲經常燒壞，請向 JVC 汽車音響分銷商詢問。

• 後置和前置揚聲器的最大輸入功率應大於 50 W ，其阻抗為 4 Ω 8 Ω 。如果最大功率少於 50 W ，

請調校“ AMP GAIN ”設定值，以防止揚聲器損壞。（參閱使用說明書的第 25 頁。）

• 為防止電源短路，請用絕緣帶包住未使用電線的端子。

• 本機使用後，散熱片會很熱。因此，在移出本機時，小心不要觸摸散熱片。

Heat sink / 散熱片

PRECAUTIONS on power supply and speaker connections:

• DO NOT connect the speaker leads of the power cord to the car battery; otherwise, the unit will be seriously damaged.

• BEFORE connecting the speaker leads of the power cord to the speakers, check the speaker wiring in your car.

電源和揚聲器接線注意事項：

• 切勿把揚聲器導線接頭接至電池，否則本機將會嚴重損壞。

• 在把揚聲器導線接頭接至揚聲器之前，檢查您汽車上的揚聲器線路。
