to standby, a very small current will flow. To save
power and for safety reasons, when not using the
unit for an extended period of time, disconnect
the power cord from the AC outlet.
2. Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.
3. When unplugging from the wall outlet, always
grasp and pull the plug, not the power cord.
4. Consult your nearest dealer when damage,
disconnection, or connect failure is found with
the power cord.
5. Do not bend sharply, pull or twist the cord.
6. Do not modify the power cord in any manner.
7. To avoid accidents, do not remove screws to
disassemble the unit and do not touch anything
inside the unit.
8. Do not insert any metallic objects into the unit.
9. Unplug the power cord when there is a
possibility of lightning.
10. If water gets inside the unit, unplug the power
cord from the outlet and consult your dealer.
11. Do not block the ventilation holes of the unit so
that heat can escape. Do not place the unit in a
badly ventilated place.
(STANDBY/ON) button
When the power cord is connected to an AC
outlet, the standby indicator is lit red, when the
unit is in the standby mode (this indicator does
not light when DC power is supplied). When the
power is switched on, the indicator turns off
showing that the power is on.
(STANDBY/ON) button is set
PRECAUTIONS REGARDING WS ANTENNA
SHORT-CIRCUIT
When there is a possible short-circuit in the WS
antenna, the unit will exhibit the following.
1. The WS antenna reception indicator and
WorldSpace band indicator will occasionally
disappear.
2. When the WS band is selected, the WS band
indicator and WS antenna reception indicator will
blink.
3. After broadcaster reception is initiated, the sound
will be muted for about two seconds before
being received.
When these precautionary signs are noted, bring the
unit to an authorized JVC dealer or service station.
Handling Precautions
1. Avoid installing in the following places.
• Where it could be subject to vibrations.
• Where it is excessively humid, such as in a
bathroom.
• Where it could be magnetized by a magnet or
speaker.
2. Do not place cassette tapes, etc. near the
speakers.
Since there are magnets in the speakers, do not
place tapes or magnetic cards on them as
recorded data could be erased.
3. Keep this unit away from your TV.
When this unit is used near a TV, the TV picture
could be distorted. If this happens, move this unit
away from the TV. If this does not correct the
situation, avoid using this unit when the TV is
turned on.
4. Cleaning the cabinet
If the cabinet gets dirty, wipe it with a soft dry
cloth. Never use benzene or thinner as these
could damage the surface finish.
5. When listening with headphones
• Do not listen at high volumes as it could
damage your hearing.
• For safety, do not drive while listening to this
unit on headphones.
6. Carrying handle
• Do not raise or lower the carrying handle with
the telescopic antenna extended, to avoid
damaging the antenna. Place the carrying
handle so that it does not interfere with
operation.
• After connecting the WS antenna cable, be sure
to check that the cable is under and not over
the carrying handle. If the cable is over the
handle, using the handle to carry this unit may
stretch the cable and cause the unit to
malfunction.
When this unit is plugged into an AC outlet, it
consumes a small current to back up the memory
of the microprocessor, even when the
(STANDBY/ON) is set to standby.
