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 operations using the buttons on the remote control.

You can use the buttons both on the remote control and on the 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 “Common Operations” on pages 8 and 9.

• The following symbols are used in this manual:

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

In addition, we put information here about conditions which will prevent getting the best possible performance from the unit.

Gives you information and hints you need to know.

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

• 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.

• Rating label is placed on the exterior of the bottom.

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

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 buildup.

• 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.

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

Playing Back Discs

Continued

This unit has been designed to play back the following discs—CD, CD-R, and CD-RW.

You can play back the discs containing the tracks in music

CD format or MP3 files in ISO 9660 format.

• In this instruction, we call a disc recorded MP3 files “MP3 disc,” and “file” is also referred to as “track.”

When playing CD-Rs or CD-RWs

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

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

ReWritable) can be played only if they are already

“ finalized .”

• This unit supports “multi-session” discs (up to 5 sessions).

• This unit cannot play “packet write” discs.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not play on this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is because the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular discs.

Notes for MP3 files

• The player can only recognize files with “MP3” or “mp3” as the extensions, which can be in any combination of upper and lower case. The file name needs to be up to 20 characters.

• This unit recognizes files and folders on a disc in the following conditions:

– up to 640 MP3 files.

– up to 256 folders (including the root folder).

– up to 8th layers (including the root folder).

• It is recommended that you record your material at a 44.1

kHz sampling rate, using the 128 kbps data transfer rate.

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

• MP3 discs requires a longer readout time than normal discs because of the complexity of the folder/file configuration.

• MP3i and MP3 Pro are not available.

General notes

In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your discs and the mechanism clean.

• Store discs in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on shelves.

• Keep the unit’s disc cover closed when not in use.

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

Maintenance

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

General Notes

In general, you will have the best performance by keeping your discs, tapes and the mechanism clean.

• Store discs and tapes in their cases, and keep them in cabinets or on shelves.

Cleaning the unit

• Stains on the unit

Should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the unit is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water-diluted neutral detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.

• Since the unit may deteriorate in quality, become damaged or have its paint peel off, be careful about the following:

– DO NOT wipe it with a rough cloth.

– DO NOT wipe it too vigorously.

– DO NOT wipe it with thinner or benzine.

– DO NOT apply any volatile substance such as an insecticide to it.

– DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact with it for a long time.

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.

• 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.

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.

• Avoid storing tapes in any of the following places:

– In dusty places

– In direct sunlight or heat

– In moist areas

– On a TV or speaker

– Near a magnet

To keep the best recording and playback sound quality

You need to clean the heads.
