Features

English

Easy operation

Great sound

Triple Tray

Sing Along

Three timers

Here are some of the things that make your System powerful and easy to use.

The controls and operations have been designed to make them very easy to use, so you can spend your time listening to music.

• With the One Touch Operation feature of JVC’s COMPU PLAY you can turn on the System and

start the radio, the Cassette Deck, or the CD Player with a single touch.

To get such great sound from such a compact package the System has:

• Built-in Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby 3ch Logic effects. Combined with the optional center

and rear speakers, this allows you to enjoy the dynamic, pulsating sound effects of a cinema.

• Programed sound mode includes live surround effects D. CLUB, HALL, and STADIUM. It also includes S.E.A (Sound Effect Amplifier) effects ROCK, POP, and CLASSIC. You can also register up to three customized settings (MANUAL 1 to 3).

CD changer function can operate 3 discs.

• Discs can be changed during play using the TRIPLE TRAY.

• Continuous, random or program play of 3 discs.

You can use conventional tapes and CDs for Karaoke with the vocal masking system. With an optional microphone, you can replace the lead singer’s voice on your favorite songs with your own.

• Digital Echo applied to your voice through the microphone gives you a professional sound.

The three timers, Daily Timer, Recording Timer, and Sleep Timer are extremely easy to set.

How This Manual Is Organized

In this manual we have incorporated some special features:

• Basic information that is the same for many different functions is grouped in one place, and not repeated in each procedure. For instance, in the section on playing a CD, we do not repeat the information about setting the volume and the sound conditions, which are discussed in the Common Operations section.

• Name of buttons and controls are written in all capital letters like this: SOUND MODE.

The manual has a table of contents to help you quickly look up what you want to know. We’ve enjoyed making this manual for you, and hope you will use it to enjoy the sound and many features built into your System.

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

1. Installation of the Unit

• Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold. (Between 5°C and 35°C or

41°F and 95°F.)

• Leave sufficient distance between the Unit and a TV.

• Do not use the Unit in a place subject to vibrations.

2. Power cord

• Do not handle the power cord with wet hands!

• Some power (12 watts) is always consumed as long as the power cord is connected to the wall

outlet.

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

3. Malfunctions, etc.

• There are no user-serviceable parts inside. If anything goes wrong, unplug the power cord and

consult your dealer.

• Do not insert any metallic object into the Unit.

COMPU PLAY

COMPU PLAY is JVC’s feature that lets you control the most frequently used functions of the System with a single touch. One Touch Operation starts playing a CD, turns on the radio, plays a tape, etc. with a single press of the play button for that function. What One Touch Operation does for you is to turn the power on, then start the function you have specified. If the Unit is not ready, such as no CD or tape in place, the Unit still powers on so you can insert a CD or tape. How One Touch Operation works in each case is explained in the section dealing with that function. The COMPU PLAY buttons are:

Sound Modes

English

The System has some preset sound effects that give you control of the way your music sounds, so you can tailor it for your room and for the quality of the source. We can give you some idea of how each one affects the music, but the only way to really tell is to try them yourself. You can also create up to three of your own customized S.E.A. (Sound Effect Amplifier) settings and store them in the Unit’s memory (MANUAL 1, MANUAL 2, MANUAL 3).

The preset sound modes include modes using surround effects and modes using S.E.A. effects. Sound Mode effects cannot be recorded.

To get an effect, press SOUND MODE repeatedly until the Sound Mode you want appears on the display .

SOUND
